The Hydraulic Fitting with JIC (Joint Industry Council) thread is another type of connection commonly used in hydraulic systems. The JIC is a thread standard that uses a 37-degree tapered profile at the junction of fittings to create a tight seal and ensure a reliable connection. With flared tube.
The Hydraulic Fitting with JIC thread consists of two main parts: the adapter and the hose. The adapter has a male thread with a 37-degree tapered seat on the end, and the hose has a female thread with a 37-degree tapered seat where the adapter sits. When the two parts are joined and tightened correctly, the conical seats engage, creating a tight seal that prevents fluid leaks.
The Hydraulic Fitting with JIC thread is widely used in high pressure hydraulic applications , such as heavy machinery systems, industrial equipment and transportation systems. It is especially common in aerospace, automotive, and demanding industrial applications.
The oleohydraulic fittings with JIC thread are made of carbon steel, they withstand a temperature between -20ºC and 120ºC . There are links that combine JIC threads with others such as BSPP, NPT, ORFS, METRICA, etc. to be able to make all types of splices and adaptations. There is a wide range of accessories with JIC thread, straight fittings, 45º angled, 90º angled, plugs, adapters, tees, unions, wall grommets, etc.
As with other types of hydraulic fittings, it is important to follow the manufacturer's recommended installation specifications and procedures to ensure proper mounting and reliable performance of the JIC Threaded Hydraulic Fitting. This may include using proper tools and torques, properly cleaning and preparing connecting surfaces, and regularly inspecting connections for leaks or wear.
