1/2 SAE O-Ring Boss to 1/2 JIC Bulkhead Fitting

🗸 1/2" JIC MALE X 1/2" SAE ORB BULKHEAD FITTING – A precision-engineered hydraulic adapter designed to provide a secure, stable transition through panels, walls, or barriers.

🗸 RELIABLE METAL-TO-METAL SEAL: The JIC 37° flare end ensures a high-pressure, metal-to-metal seal, recognized industry-wide for its durability in demanding hydraulic circuits.

🗸 LEAK-RESISTANT ORB CONNECTION: The SAE O-Ring Boss (ORB) end utilizes an elastomeric O-ring to create a superior, leak-resistant seal that excels in high-vibration environments.

🗸 STABLE BULKHEAD MOUNTING: Designed for fixed installation, the threaded body and included locknut allow you to mount the fitting securely through a barrier, reducing stress on the surrounding hose assemblies.

🗸 VERSATILE INDUSTRIAL USE: Built to withstand the rigors of mobile equipment, agricultural machinery, and industrial hydraulic systems where consistent performance is mandatory.

Q: What is the primary purpose of a "bulkhead" fitting?

A: A bulkhead fitting is designed to be mounted through a fixed barrier, such as a tank wall or equipment panel. It provides a stable, anchored connection point for hydraulic lines, which helps isolate the plumbing from vibration and movement.

Q: How does the JIC connection maintain a seal?

A: The JIC connection uses a 37° flare on the male end that mates with a corresponding female seat. This creates a high-integrity metal-to-metal seal that is specifically engineered for high-pressure hydraulic applications.

Q: Why is the SAE O-Ring Boss (ORB) end used on the other side?

A: The ORB end uses an elastomeric O-ring to provide a secondary seal. This design is highly effective at preventing leaks, especially in systems subject to thermal expansion or mechanical vibration.

Q: Is this fitting suitable for high-pressure systems?

A: Yes. Both the JIC 37° flare and the SAE O-Ring Boss standards are widely used in high-pressure hydraulic systems across industrial, agricultural, and mobile equipment sectors.

Q: What is required to install this fitting?

A: This fitting is installed by passing the threaded body through a pre-drilled hole in your panel or barrier and securing it firmly in place with the provided locknut, ensuring the assembly remains stable during operation.
