Eaton 20Z-520-BG Jic 37 Male Rigid Hydraulic Hose Fitting

Product Description

The EATON 20Z-520-BG is a JIC 37-degree male rigid hydraulic hose fitting manufactured from steel. It is designed to terminate a hydraulic hose at a fixed connection point using a 37-degree flare seating surface, which is the standard JIC interface for hydraulic fluid systems. The fitting accepts a 20 mm hose and threads into a female JIC port at a 1-5/8-12 thread size. A 1-3/4 inch hex flat allows standard wrench installation. This type of fitting is used by hydraulic system technicians, equipment mechanics, and fluid power specialists across industrial and mobile equipment applications.

This fitting is suited for hydraulic fluid lines in industrial machinery, mobile equipment, and agricultural or construction equipment where a rigid, non-swivel male JIC termination is required. The rigid body style holds orientation after installation, which is important in tight routing environments or where hose movement is constrained. It is typically installed at the hose assembly stage, either in a shop press or field repair setting, on high-pressure hydraulic circuits.

Key Features

• JIC 37-degree male rigid fitting for secure flare-seat hydraulic connections
• Compatible with 20 mm hydraulic hose diameter
• 1-5/8-12 thread size for standard JIC female port fitment
• 1-3/4 inch hex for wrench engagement and installation torque
• Steel construction for durability in high-pressure hydraulic service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement rigid male JIC fitting for 20 mm hydraulic hose assemblies requiring a 1-5/8-12 threaded JIC 37-degree interface.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or fluid power specialist. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit fully before disconnecting any fittings or hose assemblies. Use the 1-3/4 inch hex with an appropriate wrench; do not use pipe wrenches or pliers on the hex flats. Follow the equipment manufacturer and industry torque guidelines for JIC 37-degree fittings to ensure a leak-free flare seat connection without over-stressing the fitting body.
