Trying to get some hose fittings and don't know what standard is used in Chinese tractors. Specifically the loader hydraulics. Tractor is 18 years old.

Best thing would be to remove a fitting and compare it to a chart of existing fittings...

Sorry, but the 'standard' is 'no standard'.

In rural areas the Autoparts places make custom hoses and have a good selection of the common fittings. I can get nearly any hose I might need at one or the other parts houses. And there is a semi-retired guy, who bought an Air Force surplus hydraulics service truck, and will come to you and make just about any hose you need. He does quite a bit of work for the mines. I think he retired out of the Air Force and spent a career working on aircraft hydraulics.

Most Chinese manufacturers use the Japanese Industrial fittings, because it tends to dominate much of the Asian market they are normally building for. But if they are building for export to North America, or the EU, they might decide to use a different style for that production run, to match what is commonly available for that market.
