Male JIC x Male Pipe 90° Extra Long Elbow - Part 2501LL

Part Number: 2501LL

Male JIC x Male Pipe 90° Extra Long Elbow

Product Overview

The Delphi Fittings Part 2501LL is an "extra long" version of the 37° JIC Male to NPTF Male Pipe 90° Elbow adapter. It is specifically engineered to provide significant extended reach when connecting a JIC (Joint Industry Council) 37° flare system to a deeply recessed or otherwise hard-to-access female NPTF (National Pipe Taper Fuel / Dryseal) port at a right angle. This fitting features a male JIC 37° flare on one end and a male NPTF pipe thread with a substantially extended length on the other. The "extra long" (LL) configuration is indispensable for applications where even standard "long" (2501L) connectors are insufficient. Manufactured from high-quality carbon steel and zinc-plated for corrosion resistance, the Part 2501LL ensures a secure, leak-resistant 90-degree transition in the most demanding hydraulic installations requiring maximum reach.

Key Features & Specifications

Material High-Grade Carbon Steel
End 1 Configuration Male 37° JIC Flare (per SAE J514 / ISO 8434-2)
End 2 Configuration Extra Long Male NPTF Pipe (Dryseal) (per ANSI B1.20.3 / SAE J476)
Angle 90 Degrees
Special Feature Significantly extended length on one or both ends (typically NPTF or overall body) for maximum reach.
Body Style Elbow Adapter with Hex or flats for wrench tightening.
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 very deep or significantly recessed female NPTF port at a 90° angle.
Working Pressure Suitable for high-pressure hydraulic applications. Specific ratings vary by size.

Commonly Available Sizes (Part #2501LL Series)

Delphi Fittings offers the Male JIC x Male Pipe 90° Extra Long Elbow in various common JIC and NPTF size combinations. The "LL" denotes the extra extended length feature.

Examples include (Male JIC x Extra Long Male NPTF):

  • 2501LL-04-04: 1/4" (7/16-20) JIC Male x 1/4" Extra Long NPTF Male
  • 2501LL-06-06: 3/8" (9/16-18) JIC Male x 3/8" Extra Long NPTF Male
  • 2501LL-08-08: 1/2" (3/4-16) JIC Male x 1/2" Extra Long NPTF Male

Note: The exact "extra long" dimension is specific to this series and provides more reach than the "L" series. Always confirm dimensions if critical for your application. An "LLL" (Extra Extra Long) version (Part #2501LLL) is also available for maximum reach needs. For unlisted size combinations, please contact our sales team.

Applications

The Part 2501LL adapter elbow is designed for specific scenarios requiring substantial extended reach:

  • Connecting JIC hydraulic lines to female NPTF ports that are exceptionally deep within machinery, bulkheads, or component housings.
  • Installations requiring significant standoff distance or clearance to avoid interference with other system parts.
  • Specialized mobile equipment, custom industrial machinery, and unique hydraulic layouts with extreme access challenges.
  • Ensuring proper thread engagement and sealing in the deepest NPTF ports where standard or even "long" fittings cannot effectively reach.

Installation & Usage Guidelines

  • Thoroughly clean and inspect all threads and sealing surfaces prior to installation.
  • For the extra-long NPTF end, carefully thread it into the deep female NPTF port. Apply a compatible thread sealant to the male NPTF threads if mating with standard NPT or for enhanced sealing under high pressure. Ensure full and proper thread engagement without bottoming out.
  • Connect the male JIC end to the female JIC swivel nut, ensuring correct alignment of the 37° flare surfaces.
  • Use appropriate wrenches on the elbow body and mating fittings. Tighten the NPTF end first to the desired orientation and torque, then tighten the JIC nut to its recommended torque.
  • Given the extended length, consider potential leverage and vibration effects; ensure adequate support for the assembly if necessary.

Why Choose Delphi Fittings Part 2501LL?

  • Significant Extended Reach: Solves critical installation challenges associated with extremely deep or obstructed NPTF ports in 90-degree connections.
