Hi everyone im not sure if im in the right forum but it sounds good i have a bush hog 1840 loader it has 1/4 " hydraulic lines i dont know what the name of the fittings are to order new ones they have a flare on the male ends about the size of a 1/4" pipe nipple any help would be appreciated

A picture would help the most. It is probably a JIC fitting.

You're getting slow old timer.

Can't really say without a picture. But it's probably either a JIC fitting or an NPT fitting.

If you can get us a picture that would be great. :thumbsup:

here are a couple pics they are not real clear but i think you should be able to tell i miked the male end and it was .557 not sure if that would be #4 or#6 if it is jic ive seen some that are 37 degree? also is it ok to put t-fittings bullheaded instead of on the run thanks

OK, they are JIC's. They should be -06 (3/8) by your measurements, here is a chart: Fluid Port Size Charts > Discount Hydraulic Hose.com All JIC fittings have a 37* taper.

also is it ok to put t-fittings bullheaded instead of on the run thanks

Why do you need/want Tee's? You cannot Tee into high pressure lines.

OK, I think I understand, (that was hard to read though). You can put the Tee's anywhere, it will not matter.
