Straight Male JIC x Male BSPT hydraulic adapters are essential components designed to facilitate secure fluid connections in hydraulic systems. The male end features a JIC (Joint Industry Council) fitting, which is a compression fitting defined by SAE J514, utilizing a 37-degree flare seating surface and parallel threads. These fittings are commonly used in fluid power systems for their reliability, as the seal is formed by contact between the male flared seat and the female coned seat. The BSPT (British Standard Pipe Tapered) connection on the other end is comparable to NPT connections, but with differences in thread pitch, outer diameters, and thread form. Sealing occurs through the distortion of the threads, which is why the use of thread sealants is recommended for secure connections. The thread sizes are often expressed as fractional dimensions preceded by "G" for parallel threads and "R" for tapered threads, ensuring compatibility with various systems. These adapters are ideal for professionals seeking efficient and reliable hydraulic solutions in diverse applications.
