Description
When you’re plumbing hydraulic lines in tight spaces or need to route hydraulic hoses around obstacles, a straight fitting just won’t cut it. This 45-degree JIC elbow gives you the angle you need while the swivel female end lets you orient the connection exactly where it needs to go. It’s one of those handy fittings that makes the difference between a clean installation and a mess of kinked hoses.
What You’re Getting
- Precise 45-degree angle that splits the difference between straight and 90-degree fittings
- Swivel female end rotates freely for easy positioning and reduces stress on hydraulic lines
- 7/16-20 JIC threads on both ends fit standard agricultural hydraulic systems
- 7500 PSI working pressure handles the demands of modern tractor hydraulics
- Quality steel construction with proper thread engagement for reliable connections
Built for Real Farm Work
This fitting works great in hydraulic systems on tractors, implements, and loaders where you need to connect hydraulic lines at an angle. You’ll find it useful when routing hydraulic lines around frame members, connecting hydraulic cylinders on three-point hitches, or plumbing hydraulic remotes where space is tight. The 1/4-inch tube size handles flow rates for most farm hydraulic applications.
Made to Last
Farm hydraulics operate at high pressures and deal with dirt, vibration, and temperature swings that would kill lightweight fittings. This elbow uses quality steel construction and proper JIC 37-degree sealing surfaces that create leak-free connections. The threads are cut to spec so they’ll engage properly without cross-threading or galling.
Good to Know
Always use proper torque when tightening JIC fittings – snug them up until the cone seats, then add about 1/6 turn more. Over-tightening can damage the sealing surfaces, while under-tightening will leak. Keep some hydraulic thread sealant handy, though proper JIC connections shouldn’t need it if the sealing surfaces are in good shape.
