Midland Industries 17043240 90 Deg Elbow Adapter Male Jic Flange

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 17043240 is a 90-degree elbow adapter designed to connect Male JIC (Joint Industry Council) hydraulic lines to Code 61 flange ports in high-pressure hydraulic systems. The adapter transitions a 2-inch Male JIC connection on one end to a 2-1/2-inch Code 61 flange on the other end. Constructed from steel for durability under hydraulic system pressures, this fitting is part of the 1704 Series line of MJIC-to-Code 61 flange elbows. Hydraulic technicians and fluid power specialists install this type of fitting when routing lines around obstructions or changing flow direction in industrial and mobile hydraulic circuits.

This elbow adapter is used in industrial and mobile hydraulic applications where a directional change is needed between a JIC-terminated hose or tube assembly and a Code 61 flange port. Code 61 flange connections are common on hydraulic pumps, motors, cylinders, valves, and manifolds operating at high pressures. The 90-degree angle reduces stress on hose assemblies by allowing cleaner routing in confined equipment spaces, making this fitting well-suited for construction equipment, agricultural machinery, and industrial power units.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow geometry allows directional change and improved hose routing in tight spaces
• 2-inch Male JIC connection on end one for compatibility with standard JIC hydraulic hose and tube assemblies
• 2-1/2-inch Code 61 flange connection on end two for direct mounting to high-pressure hydraulic ports
• Steel construction provides strength and durability under hydraulic system operating pressures
• Part of the 1704 Series MJIC to Code 61 flange elbow product line

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style hydraulic fitting for systems using 2-inch Male JIC hose or tube terminations and 2-1/2-inch Code 61 flange ports, typical in industrial and mobile hydraulic circuits.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or fluid power specialist. Depressurize and bleed the hydraulic system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Inspect sealing surfaces on both the JIC threads and the Code 61 flange face for damage before assembly, and use the appropriate O-ring or gasket as required by the flange specification. Torque flange bolts and JIC connections according to the system designer or equipment manufacturer specifications, not generic values.
