Eaton 08Z-512-BG Male Sae 37 Jic Rigid Hose Fitting

Product Description

The EATON 08Z-512-BG is a male SAE 37-degree JIC rigid hose fitting designed for hydraulic plumbing applications requiring a secure, leak-resistant connection. Machined from steel, this fitting accepts an 8 mm hose size with an 11/16-inch hose diameter and threads at 1-1/16-12 UNF. The rigid style provides a fixed, non-swivel connection point, making it well suited for lines where the hose position is set during installation and movement is not required. Hydraulic technicians and fluid-power specialists install this type of fitting when building or repairing high-pressure hydraulic circuits on mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and stationary power units.

This fitting is used in hydraulic systems where SAE 37-degree JIC flare connections are specified. The 37-degree flare seat mates with standard JIC female fittings and adapters across a wide range of hydraulic assemblies. Typical install scenarios include return lines, pressure lines, and case-drain circuits on equipment such as construction machinery, agricultural implements, and industrial hydraulic power units. The 1-1/4-inch hex allows for positive torque with a standard open-end or combination wrench.

Key Features

• Male SAE 37-degree JIC flare seat for a metal-to-metal seal with compatible female JIC fittings
• Rigid (non-swivel) body keeps the hose connection fixed in position after assembly
• Steel construction provides strength suitable for hydraulic service pressures
• 8 mm hose size with 11/16-inch hose diameter for common mid-range hydraulic hose
• 1-1/16-12 UNF thread size compatible with standard JIC female counterparts
• 1-1/4-inch hex for reliable torque with standard hand tools

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-assembly rigid male JIC fitting for hydraulic hose assemblies using 8 mm hose with an SAE 37-degree JIC flare connection standard.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or mechanic familiar with fluid-power systems. Depressurize and de-energize the hydraulic circuit completely before removing or installing any fitting. Inspect the flare seat and mating female fitting for nicks or damage before assembly, as metal-to-metal JIC connections rely on clean seating surfaces to seal properly. Do not use thread sealant tape on JIC flare fittings, as the seal is formed at the flare face, not the threads.
