I'm wondering what are favorite references for identifying pressure fittings? I'd like to be more confident with some of the less common ones - like JIC with & without O rings.....

There has to be a hydraulic supply store somewhere near you such as Parker. Dirt movers and agricultural users rely on them to keep machines working and they are located within an hours drive of almost any area. Have you done a search for "hydraulic supply stores" near you?

Are you rural or semi rural? If so check with local autoparts, or farm/ranch stores.

I live in a rural logging, farm/ranch, mining town. All of three the auto parts stores, and the three farm/ranch supply, plus the local hydraulics shop, and a guy in a deuce and a half, make hoses in about twenty to thirty minute, and the next business day if you have something strange. And all of them except the guy in the truck, are competitively priced.

I fix a lot of hydraulic hoses. If it is a Kubota tractor, it is more than likely British. Looks like 45 deg. bend in one end. If it is a 1/4'' hose it is probably 1/4 '' British female pipe swivel. They do make jump sizes, but they are rare and expensive.

Since we can’t measure it or check the thread pitch I have two suggestions. First is to look at an old invoice that may show the part numbers they used to make the previous ones. Second is go to www. hoseandfittings.com and look at their selection which is where I get mine when I can’t find them anywhere else. I have bought lots of metric conversion and other fittings there.

We have never had luck ordering online. We just take the old hose to our local hardware store or Axxon and they make a new hose with appropriate fittings. Good luck.
I was hoping someone would say this!

I buy mine exclusively online. I use dozens of hoses and hundreds of fittings in my tractor restorations. I make some hoses here in my shop when needed, depending on how soon I need it and my time available. The nearest place that makes hoses is 40 miles one way and they don’t have the selection I can find online.

Yes there is one. The close one went out of business, I just have to drive a little further now.

They look like BSP (British Standard Parallel Pipe,) fittings to me! I use them quite a bit! Especially if your machine is English made!
Or Chinese made. I have those on a hydraulic hose crimper I just bought. I'm changing the pump configuration so I can also use my air-over hydraulic pump. It's also using ~5/16" ID hose so it must be metric something or other. My guess is BSPP also. The male side looks like just a tube with a short taper on the entry side. The side that's being held in the OP's pictures is the female side.

Here's my new crimper with eight die sets. (Six of the sets are visible in the drawer.)

The only way they'll sell hoses is as a set that includes all the hoses on the machine. I didn't bother asking how many thousands of dollars that would be since many of the hoses are 40' long to reach the cage.

I had a hose made up at the hydraulic shop, $85. The invoice has some crazy part number so I still don't know what kind of fittings they are. He did say they don't use that style fitting with orings any more, they just ended up leaking.

Google the part number with the words "hydraulic fitting" behind the part number. Somewhere you will be told what fitting it is.

It is probably a common JIC connector, which has a 37-degree bevel and is suitable for hydraulic systems and has good sealing. If it is not a JIC connector, it may be a metric or BSPP connector.
