Hydraulic hose fitting and method

A hydraulic fitting comprising:

• a stem having a hose insert portion, and a collar support portion,
• a mating connection portion,
• said collar support portion including knurling and an axial stop ring,
• a collar having, a torque communication portion, a ferrule support portion, and an inner periphery extending through said ferrule support portion and said torque communication portion,
• said torque communication portion being staked such that said inner periphery extending through said torque communication portion communicates with said knurling in a relatively non-rotational manner, and
• said ferrule support portion being staked such that said inner periphery extending through said ferrule support portion communicates with said axial stop ring in an axial movement limiting manner.

A hydraulic coupling and hose comprising:

• a hose end fitting including
• a stem having a hose insert portion, and a collar support portion,
• said collar support portion including knurling and an axial stop ring,
• a collar having, a torque communication portion, a ferrule support portion, and an inner periphery extending through said ferrule support portion and said torque communication portion,
• said torque communication portion being staked such that said inner periphery extending through said torque communication portion communicates with said knurling in a relatively non-rotational manner,
• said ferrule support portion being staked such that said inner periphery extending through said ferrule support portion communicates with said axial stop ring in an axial movement limiting manner,
• a mating connection portion,
• said hose fitted upon said hose end fitting,
• an apparatus fitting, and
• said apparatus fitting sealingly mated to said mating connection portion of said hose end fitting.
