Gates G25230-0408 MegaCrimp Female Flat-Face O-Ring Swivel Hydraulic Hose Fitting

The Gates G25230-0408 is a MegaCrimp Female Flat-Face O-Ring (FFOR) Swivel hydraulic hose coupling, also known by its Gates alternate part number 4G-8FFORX. Designed for use with 1/4 in. (dash-4) wire braid hydraulic hose and featuring a 1/2 in. flat-face O-ring swivel port connection, this fitting delivers a leak-free, high-performance hydraulic assembly suitable for demanding industrial and mobile equipment applications.

At the heart of the MegaCrimp design is Gates' patented "C" insert, pre-assembled into the ferrule. This insert distributes crimping forces evenly to produce a concentric, weep-free seal—and it accommodates multiple hose constructions and wall thicknesses within the same coupling size, simplifying inventory and reducing selection errors.

Key Features:

• Female Flat-Face O-Ring (FFOR) Swivel — straight configuration for clean, leak-resistant port connections
• Patented C insert ensures even crimping force distribution and a concentric, weep-free seal
• Bite-the-wire crimp design provides superior hose retention and blow-off resistance
• Tested to 1,000,000 impulse cycles for proven high-cycle durability
• TuffCoat plating provides 347% better corrosion resistance than the SAE standard baseline
• One coupling size accommodates multiple hose ODs across both one- and two-wire braid hose constructions
• Fully qualified to SAE, EN, and ISO hydraulic performance standards
• Compatible with Gates eCrimp system for precise crimp specification lookup
• UPC: 72053879926 | Replaces Product IDs: 710418075 & 710419075

Gates MegaCrimp couplings are the preferred choice for hydraulic system builders who demand reliability and simplified assembly. The G25230-0408 is ideal for low-carbon steel applications in agricultural, construction, and industrial hydraulic systems where a secure, flat-face O-ring port connection is required.
