In the hydraulic system, JIC Hose Fittings are threaded. This design not only ensures the firmness and sealing of the connection, but also makes the installation process extremely simple.
Advantage:
Quick installation: The threaded connection method makes the installation process faster. Just screw the connector into the corresponding pipe hole and tighten it slightly by hand or tools to complete the connection without complicated processes or additional tools. The advantage of this quick installation is particularly evident when frequent replacement or maintenance of joints is required.
No professional skills required: Compared with other connection methods, such as welding or clamping, threaded connections are simpler and do not require advanced technical skills or professional training. Installation can be easily completed, reducing labor costs and time consumption. This means operators can easily install JIC hose couplings even without a professional engineer.
Easy maintenance: Threaded connections make removal and replacement of hose couplings easy. Fittings or hoses can be easily removed and replaced by simply loosening the threads, allowing for quick maintenance and repairs, reducing system downtime and maintenance costs. This is important in applications where hydraulic systems require frequent replacement or repair.
installation steps:
Preparation work: Before starting the installation, you must ensure that the model and size of the hose and connector match the pipeline, and check whether the connector and pipeline orifice are clean. Any debris or residue may affect the quality and sealing performance of the connection.
Apply lubricant: Apply an appropriate amount of lubricant to the threaded surface of the joint to reduce friction and help it screw into the pipe orifice more smoothly. The use of lubricant can reduce resistance during installation and protect the threads from damage.
Screw in the fitting: Insert the fitting into the pipe opening and turn clockwise until it is fully screwed into place. During the screwing process, be careful not to apply excessive force to avoid damaging the threads or joints. For large or heavy joints, consider using lifting equipment or other auxiliary tools.
Uniform force: During the screw-in process, try to keep the force even and avoid lateral force causing the joint to deflect or incomplete screw-in. Use correct installation techniques and tools to ensure good mating of the connector with the pipe opening.
Hand or tool tightening: If necessary, the joints can be tightened slightly using hand or appropriate tools to ensure a tight connection and avoid loosening or leaking. But be careful not to over-tighten to avoid damaging the threads or deforming the joint.
