A TEE adaptor with JIC (M) x JIC (M) x JIC (F) threads is a hydraulic fitting designed to connect three lines using SAE J514-compliant 37° flare fittings, with two male ends and one female end. Here's a detailed breakdown:
Adaptor - TEE - SAE JIC (M) x JIC (M) x JIC (F)
Thread Type: JIC (Joint Industry Council)
Standard: SAE J514 / ISO 8434-2
Seal Type: 37° metal-to-metal flare
Thread Form: UNF (Unified National Fine)
Connection:
Male JIC: External threads with a 37° flare
Female JIC: Internal threads with a 37° cone seat
Design & Configuration
Shape: T-shaped fitting
Ends:
Two male JIC ends (typically inline)
One female JIC branch (perpendicular)
Purpose: Allows integration of a female-threaded JIC hose or tube into a male-to-male JIC line
Materials
Carbon steel (zinc-trivalent plated) – durable and corrosion-resistantÂ
316 stainless steel – for high-corrosion environments
Brass – for lower pressure or non-corrosive systems
Applications
Hydraulic systems in industrial, agricultural, and construction equipment
Fuel and oil lines
High-pressure fluid transfer
Mobile and stationary machinery
Installation Tips
No thread sealant is needed sealing is achieved by the flare contact.
Ensure the flare surfaces are clean and undamaged.
Tighten to the recommended torque to avoid leaks or damage.
