DELPHI FITTINGS
Part #: 1800
37° JIC Male x Code 62 Flange Adapter
Product Overview
The Delphi Fittings Part 1800 is a straight flange head adapter specifically designed for high-pressure hydraulic applications. It creates a robust connection between a SAE Code 62 flange port and a JIC (37° flare) hydraulic line. This adapter features a Code 62 flange head with an O-ring groove on one end and a male JIC 37° flare on the other. It is intended for use with a Code 62 split flange kit (two halves, high-strength bolts, and washers) or a captive flange to securely clamp the flange head to the port face, compressing the O-ring for a superior, leak-proof seal. The male JIC end allows for straightforward connection to female JIC swivel fittings on hydraulic hoses or tubes. Manufactured from high-quality carbon steel and zinc-plated for corrosion resistance, this adapter conforms to SAE J518 (for the Code 62 flange end) and SAE J514 (for the JIC end) standards, ensuring reliability in the most demanding hydraulic systems.
Key Features & Specifications
| Material | High-Grade Carbon Steel |
|---|---|
| End 1 Configuration | Male 37° JIC Flare (conforming to SAE J514 / ISO 8434-2) |
| End 2 Configuration | SAE Code 62 Flange Head (Heavy Duty) (conforming to SAE J518 / ISO 6162-2) |
| Body Style | Straight Flange Head Adapter, typically with a hex or flats for orientation. |
| Sealing Mechanism | JIC End: Achieves a metal-to-metal seal on the 37° flare cone. Flange End: Utilizes an elastomeric O-ring (seated in the groove on the flange head) which compresses against the flat face of the mating Code 62 port, secured by a split or captive flange kit. |
| Corrosion Protection | Standard Zinc Plating for enhanced durability and resistance to environmental corrosion. |
| Primary Function | To provide a straight, high-pressure, leak-proof connection from a SAE Code 62 flange port to a female JIC swivel fitting or flared tube. |
| Working Pressure | Suitable for heavy-duty high-pressure hydraulic systems as defined by SAE Code 62 (typically up to 6000 PSI). |
| O-Ring Material (for Flange end) | Typically Buna-N (Nitrile) 90 Durometer as standard. Viton® (FKM) or other materials available upon request for specific fluid or temperature compatibility. O-ring is supplied with the fitting. |
Commonly Available Sizes (Part #1800 Series)
Delphi Fittings offers the 37° JIC Male x Code 62 Flange Adapter in a variety of common JIC and Code 62 flange sizes for high-pressure applications.
Examples include (Male JIC x Code 62 Flange Size):
- 1800-08-08: 1/2" (-08) JIC Male x 1/2" (-08) Code 62 Flange
- 1800-10-10: 5/8" (-10) JIC Male x 5/8" (-10) Code 62 Flange
- 1800-12-12: 3/4" (-12) JIC Male x 3/4" (-12) Code 62 Flange
- 1800-16-16: 1" (-16) JIC Male x 1" (-16) Code 62 Flange
- 1800-20-20: 1-1/4" (-20) JIC Male x 1-1/4" (-20) Code 62 Flange
- 1800-24-24: 1-1/2" (-24) JIC Male x 1-1/2" (-24) Code 62 Flange
Note: Each flange head includes an appropriate O-ring. This adapter requires a separate Code 62 split flange kit (e.g., Part 62SF-KIT) or captive flange and high-strength bolts for installation. For unlisted size combinations, specific material requirements (e.g., stainless steel options), or other custom needs, please contact our sales team.
Applications
The Part 1800 JIC Male x Code 62 Flange Adapter is specifically designed for:
- Connecting JIC hydraulic lines (hoses or tubes with female JIC swivel ends) to high-pressure SAE Code 62 flange ports on hydraulic pumps, motors, valves, cylinders, and heavy-duty manifolds.
- Integrating JIC standard lines into systems that utilize Code 62 flange connections for maximum pressure handling and reliability.
- Use in severe-duty mobile equipment (e.g., large excavators, mining machinery, forestry equipment), industrial machinery (e.g., high-tonnage presses), and various hydraulic systems where robust, bolted flange connections are essential for safety and performance.
- Applications demanding superior resistance to vibration, pressure spikes, and mechanical stress.
Installation & Usage Guidelines
- Ensure the Code 62 flange head, O-ring groove, O-ring, mating port surface, and JIC flare are all meticulously clean, undamaged, and free from any contaminants.
- Verify that the O-ring is the correct size and material for the high-pressure application and is properly lubricated with system-compatible fluid.
- Carefully install the lubricated O-ring into the groove on the flange head of the adapter.
- Position the flange head squarely against the mating Code 62 port face. Place the Code 62 split flange halves (or captive flange) behind the adapter's flange head.
- Insert the four high-strength mounting bolts (typically with lock washers) through the flange halves/captive flange and into the tapped holes in the port.
- Lightly snug all four bolts. Then, progressively and evenly tighten the bolts in a diagonal or cross-pattern sequence to the manufacturer's recommended torque specification for the Code 62 flange size and bolt grade. This ensures even O-ring compression and prevents flange distortion.
- Connect the male JIC flare end of the adapter to a mating female JIC swivel fitting. Ensure the 37° flare surfaces align correctly. Lightly lubricate the JIC swivel nut threads (not the flare itself). Tighten the JIC swivel nut to the recommended torque for the specific JIC size.
- Always use appropriate backup wrenches on the adapter body and mating components during the tightening process.
