Description
When you’re plumbing hydraulic systems or connecting different types of equipment, you’ll often run into the challenge of matching JIC fittings to NPT threads. This straight adapter bridges that gap, letting you connect your 7/8-14 JIC male components to 1/2-14 female NPT fittings without the headache of finding custom hoses or dealing with incompatible connections.
What You’re Getting
- Straight-through design keeps your connections simple and takes up minimal space
- Heavy-duty construction rated for 5000 PSI working pressure – handles serious hydraulic applications
- 1-1/8 inch hex for easy installation with standard wrenches
- Precision machined threads ensure leak-free connections that stay tight
- 5/8 inch tube outer diameter matches standard hydraulic line sizing
Built for Real Farm Work
This adapter is perfect for connecting hydraulic components on tractors, loaders, and implements where you need to join JIC and NPT threaded systems. Whether you’re plumbing a remote hydraulic circuit, connecting gauge ports, or adapting between different manufacturers’ fittings, this little connector solves those threading compatibility problems that can hold up a job.
Made to Last
AgSmart builds these adapters to handle the vibration, pressure cycles, and tough conditions that come with farm equipment. The steel construction resists corrosion and the precision machining means the threads won’t strip or leak, even after years of use in dusty, dirty environments.
Installation Notes
Thread the male JIC side hand-tight first, then use a wrench on the hex to snug it down – don’t overtighten as this can damage the 37-degree flare seal. Use thread sealant on the female NPT side, but remember that NPT threads seal on the threads themselves, not the shoulder.
