After buying a wrong part, instead of buying and trying I figured I'd ask here if someone has a part number I can just order online.

I have a 1/2" male O-ring end on the hydraulic hide and need it to fit my tractor side 3rd function quick attach.

This is the half inch hose side (for my new tree shear).

This is the tractor side quick attach. More photos to come but I can only post one photo per post for some reason

I purchased this as it fit the tractor side quick attach but I couldn't seem to get an adapter at the store which fit the hose side and the tractor side. All they had was female pipe and nothing else so I just returned them today in hopes someone here would have the right parts for me

I'm no expert but it seems to me you have to find a female threaded, female hydraulic quick coupler fitting to screw on to the half inch shear fitting and you'll be set. I don't know what size that quick attach on the tractor side is but I'd put some calipers on it if I were you. Since it's a third function it may be aftermarket and maybe not a Kubota standard. Measure, then eyeball what's on the web.

Will a poppet end work with a ball end?

Also, do poppet vs flat have a different flow rate ? Not that this should overall make a difference is think. Does it change PSI at all?

Isn't that going to end up with a male to male quick connect? It looks like he has a male end on his tractor third function hose.

It's ok, I should of been more clear, I'll need one female and one male.

This is what I'm matching to...

Now go look at your other implements that line connects to and see which female coupler is on it, then look for the same coupler with a 1/2 female threaded end at a hydraulics supply place like the one the other poster posted up. You only need one fitting and that will be to adapt the 1/2" female threaded fitting to the female hydralic quick coupling. It doesn't look like an NPT pipe fitting because it has an O ring so isn't an NPT fitting.

Will a poppet end work with a ball end? YES

Also, do poppet vs flat have a different flow rate ? As long as both have the same size body, (1/2"?)they should flow the same.

Not that this should overall make a difference is think.

Does it change PSI at all? NO

I hope that this helps some.

All this info is on the web, you just need to look. Google is your friend.
