Terminating unused female JIC ports on hydraulic manifolds, valves, pumps, and cylinders.
Capping off the end of hydraulic hoses or tubes fitted with female JIC swivel nuts.
Pressure testing hydraulic systems by sealing off specific lines or ports.
Temporary or permanent closure of JIC connections during maintenance, storage, or system modification.
Common in mobile equipment, industrial machinery, agricultural implements, and various fluid power applications.

Installation & Usage Guidelines

Ensure the male JIC flare nose of the plug and the mating female JIC seat are clean, undamaged, and free from contaminants.
Align the plug with the female JIC fitting or port.
Thread the plug into the female JIC port by hand until finger tight. Ensure the 37° flare surfaces are correctly aligned.
Use an appropriately sized wrench on the hex head of the plug to tighten it to the recommended torque. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the flare.
No thread sealant is required for JIC flare connections as the seal occurs on the metal-to-metal flare seat.
