Female British parallel #4 fitting for #6 hose ? ( FWIW, that is what NAPA guy says I need anyway....)
Because the other end attaches to a Swiss made pump with slightly larger metric fittings ( which I would be using at the pump end of the hoses)Likely you’ll be using adapters to make it happen. Why not just use #4 hose? It’ll be choked down at the fittings anyway.

...If you strike out at your local places I could make up an adapter...
............You could use larger I.D. hose but in the end your still pushing that oil through a 1/4"
Well aware of that but for this application the flow was already appropriate for the machine (a Myford cylindrical grinder) at 1/4" hose ID. Bottom line is I'm trying to substitute a Swiss made hydraulic pump for the original Myford pump (that seems to be kaput)Just as e-fishin-c states regardless of the hose I.D. size you use it will still only allow the flow volume of the end fittings you use at a given pressure. As the pressure increases so will flow volume, limited by pressure and flow restriction.
