I work for Parker, so I am biased somewhat....

I worked for a Parker distributor and got the dims from that catalog.
You folks are GREAT.

I've since found that the SAE o-rings are to 568-9xx series where xx
is the 2 digit dash number (nominal tube OD in 1/16" units). I listed
the ones for the dimensions I gave below with the eimensions.

I had a feeling they were SAE threads as a common SAE tap set I have lying around fit the threads. Thanks also for the
info on the o-rings. Sometimes its difficult to get the kind of detailed info you need to talk to a salesperson who
doesn't know their product line. Its good to see that there are at least a few people who can help out on this subject
from this news group.

Yeah, I've been to those exact pages, & will note for the record that none of those pages mention an o-ring for sale,
however, the pictures do indicate that the parts come with said o-ring. If not, like I said, I would like to know the
particulars for when I go a calling the very well informed A&S sales people (tongue firmly in cheek here).

These are what are normally called "SAE" fittings and use (usually) a
90 durometer nitirle material. It looks like they are SAE #6 (thread
is 3/8-24), but just for grins,
