Global TTC 1 & 2 Wire Braid Steel Crimp Fitting, 1/2-20 Female JIC 37 deg Flare, -04 Hose, Straight

It matches a 1/2-20 female JIC 37 degree flare swivel end on one side and is made to crimp onto a -04 hose, in a straight configuration.

For a straight female JIC 37 degree flare connection on a -04 hose, this fitting matches that setup. It’s a 1/2-20 female JIC 37 degree flare and is called out for -04 hose size, so the thread and hose size line up for that common pairing.

Nothing extra is required on the hose end before you crimp. No mandrel gets inserted, and no thread sealant goes on the JIC end either. Just make sure you're working with a -04 hose and that the crimp tooling is set up correctly for the fitting diameter. The 37-degree flare on the JIC side handles the seal on its own once it's torqued down against a mating seat.

For general-purpose low and medium-pressure hydraulic applications, this steel crimp fitting is a good choice. It's also suitable where there might be some shock.
