Eaton 12Z-616-BG Female Jic 37 Swivel Fitting 12mm

Product Description

The EATON 12Z-616-BG is a female JIC 37-degree swivel fitting designed for hydraulic hose assemblies. It connects a 12 mm hose to a 1-5/16-12 threaded port, providing a reliable, leak-resistant joint through a 37-degree flare seating surface. Constructed from steel, this fitting is built for the pressure and vibration demands found in industrial and mobile hydraulic systems. The swivel design allows the nut to rotate independently during installation, reducing hose twist and making it easier to achieve a proper makeup torque on hard-to-reach fittings. Hydraulic technicians and fluid power mechanics use this type of fitting when building or repairing hose assemblies on equipment such as construction machinery, agricultural implements, and industrial power units.

This fitting is suited for hydraulic hose assemblies requiring a female JIC 37-degree swivel end with a 1-5/16-12 thread and a 12 mm hose size. It is a standard replacement or assembly component for mobile and stationary hydraulic systems where JIC 37-degree flare connections are specified. The steel construction makes it appropriate for medium- to high-pressure hydraulic lines in demanding environments. Fluid power mechanics and equipment technicians typically install this fitting when fabricating new hose assemblies or replacing worn or damaged ends on existing hydraulic circuits.

Key Features

• Female JIC 37-degree swivel design reduces hose twist during assembly
• 1-5/16-12 thread size for compatibility with standard JIC port connections
• 12 mm hose size designation for correct hose-end match
• Steel construction provides durability in high-pressure hydraulic applications
• Swivel nut allows independent rotation for easier installation in confined spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or assembly fitting for hydraulic hose systems requiring a female JIC 37-degree swivel end with a 12 mm hose size and 1-5/16-12 thread.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified fluid power technician or hydraulic mechanic. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit completely before removing or installing any hose end fitting. Use appropriate hose crimping equipment and follow the fitting manufacturer's assembly instructions for proper insertion depth and crimp specifications. Inspect the JIC 37-degree seating surface and mating port for damage or contamination before final makeup.
