Midland Industries SS2500-20-20 90-deg Union Elbow Jic

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES SS2500-20-20 is a 90-degree union elbow fitting designed for high-pressure fluid and hydraulic line connections. It features a 1-1/4-inch Male JIC connection on both ends, making it a symmetrical union fitting for routing lines at a right angle without adapting between different thread types or sizes. Constructed from 316 stainless steel, this fitting is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 2500 psi and an operating temperature up to 1000 degrees F. It is suited for demanding industrial, hydraulic, and process-piping applications where corrosion resistance and pressure integrity are required.

This fitting is used in hydraulic systems, fuel lines, high-pressure fluid transfer, and industrial process piping where a 90-degree directional change is needed in a JIC-threaded line. The SS2500 Series MJIC Union Elbow configuration is commonly installed during fabrication of hydraulic manifolds, equipment plumbing, and stainless steel tubing runs in corrosive or high-temperature environments. It is appropriate for both shop fabrication and field repair work performed by hydraulic technicians, pipefitters, and maintenance mechanics.

Key Features

• 90-degree union elbow routes lines at a right angle while maintaining the same JIC thread on both ends
• 1-1/4-inch Male JIC x 1-1/4-inch Male JIC - symmetrical connection, no size reduction
• 316 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in harsh or chemically aggressive environments
• 2500 psi maximum operating pressure suits high-pressure hydraulic and fluid transfer service
• 1000 degrees F temperature rating supports high-temperature process and industrial applications
• Thread spec 1-5/8 - 12 on both ends conforms to standard JIC 37-degree flare fitting dimensions

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for hydraulic and high-pressure fluid systems using standard 1-1/4-inch Male JIC threaded connections in the SS2500 Series MJIC Union Elbow product family.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by hydraulic technicians, pipefitters, or qualified maintenance mechanics. De-pressurize and bleed the hydraulic or fluid system completely before removing or installing any fittings. JIC fittings rely on a metal-to-metal 37-degree flare seat - do not use pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape on JIC threads. Inspect the flare seating surface on mating tubing for nicks or deformation before torquing to ensure a leak-free connection.
