Midland Industries 2404-LL-08-06 Jic Nptf Adapter

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 2404-LL-08-06 is a steel extra long adapter fitting designed to connect a 1/2 inch Male JIC (37-degree flare) end to a 3/8 inch Male NPTF thread. The extra long body provides additional reach in tight plumbing runs where a standard-length adapter would not clear surrounding hardware or fittings. Built from steel for durability in high-pressure hydraulic service, this fitting is installed by hydraulic system technicians, mobile equipment mechanics, and industrial maintenance professionals working on fluid power circuits.

This adapter is used in hydraulic plumbing applications where JIC flare connections must transition to National Pipe Taper Fuel (NPTF) threaded ports. Typical installations include mobile hydraulic equipment, industrial power units, and fluid transfer systems where a reliable, leak-resistant metal-to-metal seal at the JIC flare and a pressure-tight dry-seal connection at the NPTF port are required. The 2404-LL series is specifically designed for extra long configurations within steel JIC adapter lines.

Key Features

• Extra long body allows fitment in confined spaces where standard adapters lack clearance
• 1/2 inch Male JIC (37-degree flare) end provides a reliable metal-to-metal seal
• 3/8 inch Male NPTF thread delivers a dry-seal connection without relying solely on thread sealant
• Steel construction suited for high-pressure hydraulic service
• Minimum order quantity of 1 - available for single-unit replacement or stocking orders

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade fitting for steel JIC adapter applications in hydraulic plumbing systems requiring a 1/2 inch Male JIC to 3/8 inch Male NPTF transition.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or mechanic familiar with JIC flare and NPTF threaded fittings. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit completely before removing or installing any fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPTF male threads per the system manufacturer's recommendations, and torque all connections using calibrated hydraulic fitting wrenches. Inspect the JIC flare seat for nicks or damage before assembly to ensure a leak-free seal.
