Eaton 24705N-605 Female Swivel Jic Fitting 1/2-20 Carbon Steel

Product Description

The EATON 24705N-605 is a reusable female swivel fitting designed for JIC (Joint Industry Council) hydraulic hose assemblies. It features a 1/2-20 inch thread size and accepts a 1/4 inch hose ID, making it suited for low- to medium-pressure hydraulic lines in industrial and mobile equipment applications. Constructed from carbon steel, this fitting provides reliable mechanical strength in demanding fluid-power environments. The swivel design allows the female end to rotate during assembly, reducing hose twist and making field installation more manageable. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and hydraulic technicians are the typical installers.

This fitting is used in hydraulic hose assemblies where a JIC 37-degree flare connection is required on the female end. The reusable construction means the fitting can be disassembled from the hose and reinstalled without special crimping equipment, which is a practical advantage for field service and repair work. Typical applications include mobile hydraulic systems, agricultural equipment, and industrial machinery where 1/4 inch hose ID lines are routed to JIC-ported components.

Key Features

• 1/2-20 inch JIC thread for standard 37-degree flare connections
• Accepts 1/4 inch hose ID for compatibility with common hydraulic hose sizes
• Reusable design allows field disassembly and reinstallation without crimping tools
• Female swivel end reduces hose twist during assembly and routing
• Carbon steel construction provides durability in hydraulic service environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for hydraulic hose assemblies using 1/4 inch hose ID and JIC 1/2-20 inch female swivel terminations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by hydraulic technicians or licensed pipefitters. Depressurize and drain the hydraulic system completely before disassembling any hose or fitting. Reusable fittings require the hose end to be cut cleanly and squarely before assembly. Follow the fitting manufacturer assembly procedure for proper socket and nipple engagement to ensure a leak-free connection.
