Thumbnail Filmstrip of FJX90-04-06 | 1/4" Hose x 3/8" JIC Female Swivel 90° Images
A FJX90-04-06 | 1/2" hose x 1/2" JIC 37° female swivel is a type of hydraulic fitting that consists of two parts: a hose fitting with a 1/2" inside diameter and a JIC 37° female swivel fitting with a 1/2" tube size and a nominal thread size of 9/16"-18. This hydraulic fitting features 90 degree angled fittings, which allows the hose to be routed in a perpendicular direction to the male fitting. This is useful for applications where space is limited or where a particular hose routing is required.
Questions & Answers
Popular Questions
The standard for hydraulic fittings is typically governed by organizations such as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). Common standards include ISO 8434 for metallic tube connections and SAE J516 for hydraulic hose fittings, which ensure compatibility, reliability, and safety in hydraulic systems.
Swivel fittings are designed to allow rotation while maintaining a seal, but they can leak if not properly installed or if they become worn or damaged over time. Regular maintenance and inspection can help prevent leaks by ensuring that seals and connections remain intact. Using high-quality fittings and ensuring correct installation can also reduce the likelihood of leaks.
Hydraulic swivel fittings allow for the rotation of connected components without disrupting the flow of hydraulic fluid. They consist of an inner rotating shaft and an outer stationary housing, with seals to prevent leaks, enabling connected hoses or pipes to rotate 360 degrees. This design helps prevent hose kinking and reduces wear, extending the life of the hydraulic system.
Swivel fittings are connectors that allow for rotation between joined components, commonly used in plumbing, hydraulics, and pneumatic systems to prevent hose twisting and kinking. Different types include elbow swivels, which allow for angular adjustment; straight swivels, which provide axial rotation; and bulkhead swivels, which facilitate rotation through a fixed panel. These fittings come in various materials, such as brass, stainless steel, and plastic, to suit different applications and environments.
Yes, this product interchanges with Weatherhead 04U-666. This compatibility ensures that users have flexibility in choosing components and can easily replace or integrate this fitting with existing systems that use Weatherhead parts. It is part of the 90 degree hydraulic swivel fittings category.
The JIC 37° female swivel fitting, also known as a "90 degree hydraulic swivel fitting," allows for rotation and adjustment of the hose connection without the need to twist the hose. This feature prevents hose damage and facilitates easier installation and maintenance, making it a valuable addition to hydraulic systems.
