Eaton 16Z-514-BG Sae 37 Jic Male Rigid Hose Fitting

Product Description

The EATON 16Z-514-BG is a SAE 37 JIC male rigid hose fitting manufactured from steel. It is designed for use in hydraulic hose assemblies where a secure, leak-resistant connection is required at a 37-degree flare seat. This fitting accepts a hose size of 16 mm and uses a 1-3/16-12 thread on the male end. The hex size measures 1-3/8 inches, accommodating standard open-end or combination wrenches. Hydraulic technicians and fluid power mechanics install this type of fitting when assembling or replacing hose lines on mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and hydraulic power units.

This fitting is suited for hydraulic systems that specify SAE J514 JIC 37-degree flare connections. Typical applications include mobile hydraulic circuits on construction and agricultural equipment, as well as stationary industrial hydraulic systems. The rigid male configuration is used when a fixed, non-swiveling connection to a hydraulic hose end is required. It is appropriate for systems where the hose routing is finalized before assembly and no field rotation is needed at the fitting joint.

Key Features

• SAE 37-degree JIC flare seat provides a metal-to-metal seal suitable for hydraulic service
• Steel construction for durability in high-pressure hydraulic applications
• 1-3/16-12 thread size for positive engagement with matching JIC female ends
• 16 mm hose size compatibility for medium to large hydraulic hose assemblies
• 1-3/8 inch hex for wrench access during assembly and torquing
• Rigid male design maintains fixed hose orientation after assembly

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for hydraulic hose assemblies requiring SAE 37 JIC male rigid fittings with a 16 mm hose size and 1-3/16-12 thread.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or fluid power mechanic. Depressurize and de-energize the hydraulic system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Clean all mating surfaces and inspect the 37-degree flare seat for damage before assembly. Tighten the fitting using the proper flat-to-flat wrench turns method per SAE J514 torque guidelines for the thread size, and avoid overtightening, which can deform the flare seat and cause leaks.
