Our Series 2404 Straight Male JIC x Male NPT hydraulic adapters are crucial components designed for efficient fluid transfer in hydraulic systems. Made from durable carbon steel, t hese adapters feature a male JIC end on one side and a male NPT end on the other, allowing for versatile connections between different types of fittings. JIC (Joint Industry Council) fittings, defined by SAE J514, are compression fittings with a 37-degree flare seating surface and parallel threads, commonly used in fluid power systems for their reliability. The seal is created by ensuring contact between the male flared seat and the female coned seat, forming a strong mechanical connection. Meanwhile, NPT (National Pipe Taper) connections use tapered threads to seal pipes for fluid and gas transfer, with the nominal pipe size determined by measuring the thread diameter and subtracting 1/4". This metal-to-metal sealing design is ideal for single assembly applications but is not recommended for frequent disassembly due to potential thread wear. The Series 2404 adapters enhance system performance and are an excellent choice for professionals seeking reliable hydraulic solutions. Show more
