Midland Industries 2404L44 Long Adapter Jic Nptf Steel

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 2404L44 is a long-pattern hydraulic adapter designed to connect a 1/4-inch Male JIC fitting to a 1/4-inch Male NPTF port in steel hydraulic and fluid power systems. Constructed from steel for durability under pressure cycling, this adapter bridges JIC 37-degree flare connections to National Pipe Taper Fuel threads without requiring additional fittings. At 2.25 inches in length, the long-body design provides clearance in tight plumbing configurations where a standard-length adapter would not seat properly. Licensed plumbers, hydraulic system technicians, and fluid power mechanics install this type of adapter in mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and hydraulic power units.

This adapter is suited for use in hydraulic circuits where JIC tubing lines must terminate into NPTF-ported components such as pumps, valves, cylinders, and manifolds. It is part of the 2404-L Series, which covers Male JIC to Male Pipe long adapters. Applications span both mobile hydraulics and stationary industrial systems requiring a reliable, leak-resistant thread transition between JIC and NPTF standards.

Key Features

• Long-body design at 2.25 inches provides clearance in congested plumbing runs
• 1/4-inch Male JIC 37-degree flare on one end for secure tube-line connection
• 1/4-inch Male NPTF thread on the opposing end for fuel-rated pipe port engagement
• Steel construction withstands pressure cycling and mechanical stress in hydraulic service
• Part of the 2404-L Series MJIC to Male Pipe long adapter family
• Minimum order quantity of 1, suitable for single-unit service replacement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for steel hydraulic systems requiring a 1/4-inch Male JIC to 1/4-inch Male NPTF long adapter connection, consistent with the 2404-L Series product line.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or licensed plumber familiar with JIC and NPTF thread standards. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit fully before removing or installing any fittings. NPTF threads rely on thread-form interference for sealing; inspect threads for damage before assembly and apply appropriate thread sealant per system fluid compatibility requirements. Do not overtighten, as steel fittings are susceptible to thread damage under excessive torque.
