Parker Fittings with XTR Coating
for extreme resistance to corrosion
7
x
SAE Standard
Protection
An outstanding advantage for
equipment in highly caustic
applications and environments,
Parker fittings with XTR (Extreme-
Resistance) Coating withstand
corrosion more than seven times
longer than the SAE standard of
96
hours. In fact, Parker’s proprietary
formulation has been
tested to
resist corroding for more
than 720 hours.
In applications where connections
come in contact with nitrogen-based
fertilizers, salt spray and other aggres-
sive chemicals, standard hose and tube
fittings become severely corroded.
In fact, corrosion can begin to occur in
as few as 14 days, putting assemblies at
increased risk of early failure, causing
unnecessary and costly equipment
downtime.
End users have been asking for an
improvement to industry-standard
hose and tube fittings to extend the
life of their equipment. Parker’s XTR
Coating with unprecedented corrosion
resistance is the answer.
Where systems are exposed to highly
corrosive external conditions, Parker’s
XTR Coating is a valuable advantage.
Ideal applications for Parker fittings
and adapters with XTR Coating include
construction, agriculture, utility,
intermodal transportation, snow/ice
removal equipment, above-ground
mining, processing plants, car washes
and other similar uses with high-
corrosive conditions.
For manufacturers shipping vehicles,
equipment and systems overseas,
XTR Coated Parker components
provide the level of protection critical
to maintaining the factory-new look
of those products on arrival.
In addition, Parker XTR Coating is
compliant with environmental
restrictions worldwide, including
RoHS, ELV, and REACH.*
Parker products with XTR Coating
assure all the leak-free performance
and installation advantages that our
customers expect. Even the assembly
torque remains the same. For un-
matched quality, service and support,
now with extreme corrosion resistance,
specify Parker hose and tube fitting
products with XTR Coating.
Parker steel fittings can be
ordered with the XTR Coating,
offering corrosion protection
above the standard zinc trivalent
chromium. The most common
configurations can be ordered,
including Seal-Lok, Triple-Lok
and Pipe Fittings.
