37° Male JIC x Long Male NPTF Pipe Connector - Part 2404L

Part Number: 2404L

37° Male JIC x Long Male NPTF Pipe Connector

Product Overview

The Delphi Fittings Part 2404L is an extended version of the standard 37° Male JIC x NPTF Male Pipe Connector. This straight adapter is specifically designed with an extended length NPTF male thread to facilitate connections to deeper or recessed female NPTF ports. It features a male JIC 37° flare on one end for connecting to female JIC swivel fittings or flared tubes, and the longer male NPTF pipe thread on the other. This design is crucial in applications where standard length connectors cannot achieve proper thread engagement or clearance. Manufactured from high-quality carbon steel and zinc-plated for corrosion resistance, the Part 2404L ensures a secure and leak-resistant transition between JIC and hard-to-reach NPTF connections in hydraulic systems.

Key Features & Specifications

Material High-Grade Carbon Steel
End 1 Configuration Male 37° JIC Flare (per SAE J514 / ISO 8434-2)
End 2 Configuration Long Male NPTF Pipe (Dryseal) (per ANSI B1.20.3 / SAE J476)
Body Style Straight Connector with Hex Body for wrench tightening.
Special Feature Extended length on NPTF male thread for reaching deeper ports.
Sealing Mechanism JIC End: Metal-to-metal seal on the 37° flare cone.
NPTF End: Metal-to-metal seal on the tapered Dryseal threads with a female NPTF port.
Corrosion Protection Standard Zinc Plating for enhanced durability.
Primary Function To connect a female JIC swivel fitting or flared tube to a deeper or recessed female NPTF port.
Working Pressure Suitable for high-pressure hydraulic applications. Specific ratings vary by size.

Commonly Available Sizes (Part #2404L Series)

Delphi Fittings offers the 37° Male JIC x Long Male NPTF Pipe Connector in a variety of common JIC and NPTF size combinations. The "L" denotes the extended length NPTF thread.

Examples include (Male JIC x Long Male NPTF):

  • 2404L-04-04: 1/4" (7/16-20) JIC Male x 1/4" Long NPTF Male
  • 2404L-06-06: 3/8" (9/16-18) JIC Male x 3/8" Long NPTF Male
  • 2404L-08-08: 1/2" (3/4-16) JIC Male x 1/2" Long NPTF Male
  • 2404L-10-08: 5/8" (7/8-14) JIC Male x 1/2" Long NPTF Male
  • 2404L-12-12: 3/4" (1-1/16-12) JIC Male x 3/4" Long NPTF Male

Note: The exact extended length can vary. Always confirm dimensions if critical for your application. An Extra Long (2404LL) version is also available for maximum reach. For unlisted size combinations, please contact our sales team.

Applications

The Part 2404L connector is particularly useful in scenarios requiring extended reach:

  • Connecting JIC hydraulic lines to NPTF ports that are set back within machinery or component housings.
  • Applications where additional clearance is needed between the JIC connection and the NPTF port face.
  • Mobile equipment and industrial machinery with complex plumbing where standard connectors are too short.
  • Ensuring full and secure thread engagement in deeper NPTF ports.

Installation & Usage Guidelines

  • Thoroughly clean and inspect all threads and sealing surfaces.
  • For the long NPTF end, thread it into the female NPTF port. Apply a compatible thread sealant to the male NPTF threads if mating with standard NPT or for enhanced sealing at high pressures. Tighten to the recommended specification.
  • Connect the male JIC end to the female JIC swivel nut, ensuring the 37° flare surfaces align correctly. Tighten the JIC nut to its recommended torque. No sealant is used on JIC connections.
  • Use backup wrenches on the adapter body and mating components as needed to prevent distortion.
  • The extended NPTF thread is designed to provide necessary reach; ensure it does not bottom out prematurely or cause interference within the port beyond the threaded section.

Why Choose Delphi Fittings Part 2404L?

  • Extended NPTF Reach: Solves installation challenges involving deep or recessed NPTF ports.
