JIC to NPT Male Connector is JIC conversion adapter to NPT. Both connector ends are male threads, designed straight and mates with female connector.

JIC stands for NPT Male Connector Description

JIC to NPT Male Connector is JIC conversion adapter to NPT. Both connector ends are male threads, designed straight and mates with female connector.

The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) specifies a 37° angle flare or seat for use with high-pressure hydraulic tubing. These fittings are commonly called as JIC couplings, JIC is an acronym for Joint Industry Council. The JIC 37° flare male will only mates with a JIC female. Besides, it has straight threads and a 37° flare seat. The seal is made on the 37° flare seat. They are the most popular as well as useful hydraulic adapters across North America and Europe.

NPT (National Pipe Thread) seals are the most popular type of seal for pressure calibration systems in the US and Canada. NPT male adapters have a taper thread that wedges into the female NPT adapter. They seal due to the “out of roundness principle” which means that the male stretches the female fitting until there is so much force that the connection can hold pressure. One of the challenges with this design is that if you connect stainless steel to stainless steel then over-tightening or poor lubrication can cause damage to the threads.
