Is Parker 801 with Dex 6 OK?

[Bass-o-matic]

I'm pretty sure the answer is yes. Parker 801 Push Lock 3/8 Hose is rated for "Petroleum base hydraulic fluid" and there fore ATF should be fine? But I like to be sure. I already made a transmission cooler with it last year and it seems fine... But for some reason... I want to re-ask the inter webs.

1. OK for ATF Dex 6? I'm using Valvoline MaxLife Full synthetic.
2. OK for Power Steering return line? It's rated to 350 PSI so... Seems Ok to me.

I just want someone smarter than me to pat me on the head and tell me it's all ok.

We use the 1/2” size as transmission cooler hose all the time on forklifts.

Great. Great. Yea, I just didn't want any surprises like, "Oh, well synthetic is different... this particular additive equals death... Toyota is allergic to Parker hoses..." You never know...

Always interesting seeing a new users’s first post.

Have you had a job working on a forklift before?

Nope. Just a shade tree OCD mechanic. Cheers
