DELPHI FITTINGS
Part Number: 2504-SS
37° JIC Male to 37° JIC Male 45° Elbow (316 Stainless Steel)
Product Overview
The Delphi Fittings Part 2504-SS is a 37° JIC Male to JIC Male 45° Elbow, engineered to create a 45-degree change in flow direction within a JIC (Joint Industry Council) 37° flare hydraulic system. This fitting features male JIC 37° flare ends on both ports, allowing it to connect two female JIC swivel fittings or flared tubes of the same size at a precise 45-degree angle. The JIC connection is renowned for its reliable metal-to-metal seal on the 37-degree flare cone, making this elbow suitable for high-pressure applications. Manufactured from corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel for demanding environments, the Part 2504-SS elbow is a vital component for routing hydraulic lines effectively in various industrial and mobile equipment.

Applications
The Part 2504-SS JIC Male 45° Elbow is widely used for:
- Creating 45-degree connections between two hydraulic hoses equipped with female JIC swivel nuts.
- Joining two sections of flared tubing at a 45-degree angle using JIC nuts and sleeves on the tubing, allowing for smoother bends in routing.
- Routing hydraulic lines around obstructions or along contours in mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and agricultural implements.
- Applications requiring reliable, high-pressure, and reusable 45-degree JIC connections.
Installation & Usage Guidelines
- Ensure both male JIC flare ends of the elbow and the mating female JIC seats (in swivel nuts or flared tube assemblies) are clean, undamaged, and free of contaminants.
- Align the elbow with the mating female JIC fittings.
- Thread the female JIC swivel nuts onto the male JIC flare ends of the elbow by hand until finger tight. Ensure the 37° flare surfaces are correctly aligned and seat properly.
- Use two wrenches: one to hold the elbow body steady (or one of the connected fittings) and one to tighten each JIC swivel nut to the recommended torque. Proper orientation of the elbow at 45 degrees is critical.
- No thread sealant is required for JIC flare connections as the seal occurs on the metal-to-metal flare seat.
Why Choose Delphi Fittings Part 2504-SS?
- Precise 45° JIC Connection: Provides a secure metal-to-metal seal for directional changes in JIC systems.
- Excellent Reusability: Can be disconnected and reconnected multiple times without compromising seal integrity, provided sealing surfaces remain undamaged.
- Optimized Routing: Ideal for creating smoother flow paths with 45-degree turns in JIC lines.
