Eaton 06Z-688-BG Female Jic Swivel 45 Elbow 3/4-16 Steel

Product Description

The EATON 06Z-688-BG is a female JIC swivel 45-degree elbow hydraulic hose fitting machined from steel. It connects a hydraulic hose to a mating JIC 37-degree flare port at a 45-degree angle, reducing stress on the hose and allowing cleaner routing in tight engine compartments, mobile equipment frames, and hydraulic power units. The fitting features a 3/4-16 thread size, a 3/4-inch hose diameter, and a 7/8-inch hex for standard wrench engagement. The swivel design lets the nut rotate independently during tightening, preventing hose twist. Licensed hydraulic technicians and fluid power specialists install this fitting in both mobile and industrial hydraulic circuits.

This fitting is suited for residential and commercial hydraulic applications wherever a JIC 37-degree flare connection is specified and a 45-degree exit angle improves hose routing. Typical install scenarios include agricultural equipment, construction machinery, industrial presses, and mobile hydraulic systems requiring a 6 mm hose size connection at a 3/4-16 JIC threaded port. The steel construction handles the pressure demands common to general hydraulic service.

Key Features

• Female JIC swivel design prevents hose twist during assembly
• 45-degree elbow angle reduces hose strain and improves routing in confined spaces
• JIC 37-degree flare seat provides a reliable metal-to-metal seal
• 3/4-16 thread size for standard JIC port compatibility
• 7/8-inch hex allows engagement with standard open-end or flare-nut wrenches
• Steel construction for durability in general hydraulic service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement JIC swivel elbow fitting for hydraulic hose assemblies requiring a 6 mm hose size with a 3/4-16 female JIC 37-degree flare swivel connection at a 45-degree angle.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or fluid power specialist. Depressurize and bleed down the hydraulic system fully before removing or installing any fittings. Hand-tighten the fitting first to confirm thread engagement, then torque with a wrench to the fitting flat using appropriate flare-nut or open-end wrenches. Inspect the JIC 37-degree flare seat for nicks or damage before assembly to ensure a leak-free seal.
