Fittings
Parker Legris fittings are essential components for creating safe and efficient connections between tubes, pipes, hoses and other parts of an installation. Depending on the type of system and application, Bamartec offers a variety of solutions designed to simplify installation, ensure a reliable leak-tight seal and meet the specific requirements of each circuit.
Types of Parker Legris Fittings
Choosing the right fitting depends on factors such as the type of tube or hose, the connection system, the available space, the fluid being used and the operating conditions.
- Push-in fittings: A practical solution for making quick and easy connections. They allow tubes to be connected and disconnected quickly, making them particularly useful in installations that require easy assembly and maintenance.
- Functional fittings: These fittings incorporate additional functions to optimise circuit performance, such as flow control or other application-specific features.
- Compression fittings: Designed to create connections using a compression system, providing a secure and reliable joint in a variety of installations.
- Hydraulic fittings: Solutions intended for hydraulic systems and applications requiring connections suited to the specific characteristics of these circuits.
- Connection accessories: Components used to adapt, join or configure different parts of an installation and achieve the correct connection for each assembly.
How to Choose the Right Fitting
Before selecting a Parker Legris fitting, it is important to check the installation’s specifications and ensure that all its components are compatible. Key factors to consider include:
- Type of application: pneumatic, hydraulic or another system.
- Type and diameter of the tube or hose.
- Connection system and thread type.
- Operating pressure and temperature.
- Fitting material and required strength.
- Type of fluid flowing through the system.
- Available space and installation configuration.
Choosing the correct connection system helps create more efficient installations and makes components easier to install, maintain and replace.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Is the Difference Between a Pneumatic Fitting and a Hydraulic Fitting?
The main difference lies in the application and operating conditions for which each fitting is designed. Pneumatic fittings are generally used in compressed-air circuits, while hydraulic fittings are intended for systems that use hydraulic fluids and require specific pressure and connection characteristics.
How Do I Know Which Fitting Size I Need?
To select the correct fitting, you need to check the tube’s outside diameter, the connection type and, where applicable, the thread specifications. It is also important to verify that the fitting is compatible with the tube and the other components in the installation.
Are Fittings Compatible with Every Type of Tubing?
No. Compatibility depends on the tubing’s material, diameter and specifications, as well as the type of fitting being used. Before purchasing, check the product’s technical specifications to ensure a safe and suitable connection.
