Eaton 04Z-684-BG Female Jic Swivel 45 Elbow 7/16-20

Product Description

The EATON 04Z-684-BG is a female JIC swivel 45-degree elbow hydraulic hose fitting manufactured from steel. It connects a hose end to a hydraulic port at a 45-degree angle, allowing directional routing while maintaining a swivel action for ease of alignment during assembly. The fitting uses a 7/16-20 thread size with a JIC 37-degree flare seating surface, which is standard in mobile hydraulic and industrial fluid power systems. Licensed hydraulic technicians and fluid power mechanics install this type of fitting during hose assembly, repair, or system fabrication.

This fitting is suited for use in hydraulic hose assemblies on mobile equipment, agricultural machinery, industrial machinery, and other fluid power systems that require a 45-degree directional change at the hose end. It is intended for hose size 4 applications with a hose inside diameter of 7/16 inch. The swivel design allows the fitting body to rotate during installation, reducing hose twist and making it easier to achieve proper torque on the port connection without stressing the hose assembly.

Key Features

• Female JIC swivel 45-degree elbow configuration for directional hose routing
• JIC 37-degree flare seating surface for leak-resistant metal-to-metal seal
• 7/16-20 thread size compatible with standard JIC hydraulic ports
• Steel construction for durability in high-pressure hydraulic applications
• Swivel body reduces hose twist during installation and torque-up
• 9/16-inch hex size for use with standard open-end or combination wrenches

Compatibility

Designed as a standard JIC 37-degree flare hydraulic hose fitting for use with hose size 4 assemblies requiring a female JIC swivel 45-degree elbow end with 7/16-20 thread. Consult your hose assembly specifications to confirm thread size and hose dash size before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or fluid power mechanic familiar with JIC fitting assembly procedures. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit completely before removing or installing any fittings. Use two wrenches when tightening swivel fittings to avoid transmitting torque into the hose body. Inspect the JIC flare seat on both the fitting and the mating port for nicks or damage before assembly to ensure a proper seal.
