Jic to an

JIC Steps In The majority of the hydraulic population agrees, the JIC (or SAE) 37 degree fittings are generally interchangeable with AN fittings.

What is the difference between an and JIC fittings?

JIC fittings are also commonly confused with AN (Army Navy) fittings. Although the two are dimensional identical, the AN military standard calls for tighter tolerances and defines all fitting types, where the JIC uses AN specifications as the base line for their own standards and covers fewer sizes.

ARE AN and flare the same thing?

AN and JIC Fittings Interchangeability AN 37° flare and industrial 37° flare fittings function identically. In many cases, they appear to be functionally interchangeable, but they are not.

Is JIC 37 or 45?

JIC fittings, defined by the SAE J514 and MIL-DTL-18866 standards, are a type of flare fitting machined with a 37-degree flare seating surface.

Is there a an fitting?

AN fittings are a particular type of fitting used to connect flexible hoses and fluid-carrying metal tubing together. The name is derived from a standardized joint agreement between the Army and Navy during World War II regarding the size specification of the fitting. A-N, therefore, stands for Army-Navy.

Is JIC and NPT the same?

JIC fittings come with a 37O flare angle, while the NPT fittings rely on just their tapered threads for sealing. As a result, JIC fittings offer better sealing capabilities and can withstand higher working pressures.

What is an An style fitting?

AN fittings are a flare fitting, using 37° flared tubing to form a metal-to-metal seal. They are similar to other 37° flared fittings, such as JIC, which is their industrial variant.

What is JIC stand for?

JIC means “just in case.” It's commonly used to share a piece of information or convince someone of an action that probably won't be necessary but might be.

Do JIC fittings need sealant?

Even though JIC threads seal with a metal-to-metal connection, no thread sealant is required to achieve a leak free connection.

What degree flare is an?

The U.S. Air Force, with help from Wright Patterson Air Force base, developed a fitting with 37° flare angle, before WWII, which became known as the "AN" fitting.

Can I use 45 degree flare on an fittings?

Note that 37° AN and 45° SAE fittings and tooling are not interchangeable due to the different flaring angles.

What the difference between 37 and 45 degree flare?

JIC 37 degree flare union fittings is in most hydraulic systems in high pressure application such hydraulic excavator, loader and tractor etc. SAE 45 degree flare fittings is used in low to medium pressure applications such as military and aerospace equipment. they doesn't interchangeable into each other.

Are brake lines 37 or 45 degree flares?

The 45-degree inverted flare is the most common style of flare used in automotive hard lines like brake, fuel, and transmission fluid transfer.

Will JIC seal on SAE?

SAE and AN/JIC fittings are completely incompatible due to the different flare angle. Furthermore, AN fittings (or those complying with subsequent standards) and JIC fittings are not interchangeable for design-controlled applications due to differing quality standards.

What size is JIC?

Inch size	Dash size	Male Thread O.D. (in)
¹⁄₂	-8	³⁄₄
⁵⁄₈	-10	⁷⁄₈
³⁄₄	-12	¹¹⁄₁₆
⁷⁄₈	-14	1 ³⁄₁₆

What thread size is an?

AN Size	Metal Tube O.D.	Thread size
10	5/8	7/8-14 SAE
12	3/4	1-1/16-12 SAE
16	1	1-5/16-12 SAE
20	1-1/4	1/5/8-12 SAE

Why use an AN fitting?

People use AN fittings because they look cool and provide a secure fitting that seals hoses better than traditional push on nipples and hose clamps. They form a serviceable connection that provides a reliable seal.

How big is 6AN hose?

Male Thread Size	AN Size*	Hose ID**
3/8-24	3AN	0.13″ **
7/16-20	4AN	0.22″
9/16-18	6AN	0.34″
3/4-16	8AN	0.44″

Is JIC and NPT compatible?

JIC fittings is absolute different seal, not interchangeable. JIC hydraulic fittings is used in high pressure system, NPT fittings is used in low-pressure system. NPT pipe threads have always been popular, as leaks can be fixed by simply tightening the fitting.
