Gates MegaCrimp Male JIC 37° Flare Hydraulic Hose Coupling

Gates MegaCrimp Male JIC 37° Flare hydraulic hose couplings (also called hose end fittings) are made to pair with Gates wire braid hydraulic hose. Together they form a strong, leak-free hose assembly. The male JIC end has straight threads and a 37-degree flare seat, and it mates with a female JIC connection.

Key Features:

• Patented "C" insert: The pre-assembled coupling has a C insert attached to the ferrule. It spreads crimping force evenly for a concentric, leak-free seal.
• Flexible hose compatibility: One coupling size can fit several 1-wire and 2-wire braid hoses of different constructions and wall thicknesses. This simplifies coupling selection and inventory.
• Robust crimp design: Features a bite-the-wire crimp, low profile, full-stem insertion and full-length crimp.
• Tested durability: Tested to 600,000 impulse cycles.
• Corrosion protection: TuffCoat plating is rated at 345 percent better corrosion resistance than the SAE standard.
• Steel construction: Straight, rigid steel fittings for hydraulic hose applications.

JIC 37° flare couplings seal on the flare seat. Some sizes share threads with SAE 45° flare fittings, so check the seat angle before installing. Use these couplings only with the hoses Gates recommends for them.
