6801 L JIC to O-Ring Long Elbow 90° | Hydraulic Fittings
Description
The 6801 L JIC to O-Ring Long Elbow 90° is a precision hydraulic fitting designed to connect a JIC (37° flare) connection to an O-Ring port at a 90° angle with extended length. This long elbow configuration allows for improved clearance, easier routing, and reduced stress on tubes or hoses in space-constrained or complex hydraulic assemblies.
Connection Description & Function
- End 1: JIC (37° flare) connection
- End 2: O-Ring port connection
- Angle: 90° elbow with extended length (“L” style)
- Designed to provide a secure, leak-resistant transition between JIC and O-Ring systems
- Extended body allows easier installation and clearance in tight spaces
Applications
This 6801 long elbow fitting is commonly used in:
- Machine tools
- Agricultural and earth-moving machinery
- Instrumentation systems
- Chemical processing equipment
- High-pressure hydraulic circuits
- Industrial fluid power systems
Pressure Ratings
- Working pressure: Up to 5,000 PSI
- Actual pressure capability varies depending on:
- Tube or hose size
- Fitting size
- System conditions
Suitable for extreme pressure applications at or above 5000 PSI when properly selected and installed
Key Features & Benefits
- Connects JIC (37° flare) to O-Ring port hydraulic systems
- Long elbow design provides added clearance
- 90° orientation for directional routing
- Suitable for high-pressure fluid power applications
- Helps reduce stress on connecting tubing or hoses
- Ideal for installation where space is limited or accessibility is restricted
Typical Use Cases
- Hydraulic systems with directional changes in tight quarters
- Retrofitting JIC systems to O-Ring port manifolds
- Machine frame hydraulic routing
- Instrumentation and control line connections
- Mobile equipment and heavy machinery hydraulics
Installation Notes
- Select correct size to match JIC and O-Ring connections
- Route fluid line to avoid sharp bends outside of the elbow
- Ensure proper thread engagement and seal surfaces before tightening
Ideal for use in high-pressure environments, this elbow is engineered for durability and reliable sealing performance where directional changes are necessary without compromising system integrity.
