Male JIC x Male BSPP hydraulic adapters are crucial components designed to create secure connections in hydraulic systems, enabling efficient fluid transfer. JIC (Joint Industry Council) fittings, defined by SAE J514, are compression fittings featuring a 37-degree flare seating surface and parallel threads, commonly used in fluid power systems for their reliability. The seal is formed by establishing contact between the male flared seat and the female coned seat, creating a robust mechanical connection. In contrast, BSPP (British Standard Pipe Parallel) male connections are designed for parallel threads, similar to NPSM male fittings, but typically feature a different thread pitch. A captive seal is achieved using metal-to-metal angled surfaces or a combination of metal and an O-ring. The female swivel BSPP has a tapered nose flareless swivel, where the seal occurs on the cone seat of the male connector. It's important to note that thread sizes are often expressed as fractional dimensions preceded by "G" for parallel threads and "R" for tapered threads, such as G 1/16 for BSPP. These adapters are ideal for professionals seeking dependable hydraulic solutions in various applications.
