Product Information

Oil coolers are used to keep engine oil at the proper temperature, which helps to extend the life of the engine. AN fittings are often used in oil cooling systems, as they are designed to handle high-pressure oil and provide a leak-free connection. Power Steering Systems Then JIC (The Joint Industry Council) came along and use the AN standard as a basis for their own standard. They essentially just ratified the parts to reduce the part count. The tolerances allowed are more lenient for JIC fittings too, compared to AN fittings.

Today, AN fittings are widely used in various industries and applications, including automotive and aerospace. Understanding AN Fitting Sizes SAE/ISO 37° fittings conform to the United States Department of Defense MIL-F-18866 and SAE J514/ ISO 8434-2 JIC stands for the Joint Industries Council, which first standardized industrial use fittings. These compression couplings have a 37° flared seat on the male and female threaded connections. What does AN stand for?AN fittings are available in a variety of shapes and designs, including straight, 45-degree, and 90-degree elbows, and tees. You can use these fittings in a variety of applications, including: Fuel Lines AN fittings are available in a variety of materials, including aluminum and stainless steel. It’s important to choose the right material for your application, based on factors such as strength, weight, and resistance to wear and tear. Brand Army-Navy fittings are used extensively in the U.S. military, military contractors, general aviation, and commercial aviation and are specifically designed to a high standard for this purpose. What are JIC fittings used for? The terms AN and JIC are used interchangeably in aftermarket automotive hydraulic systems. Mainly the system is used for fuel and oil systems. Occasionally it is also used for coolant systems, but it is pretty rare. What we’re after in reality are AN fittings, because they offer the best dimensional tolerances, and sealing surface finishes. Not all fittings that look the same, are the same! In Motorsport ¶ AN fittings come in a variety of sizes and are typically identified by their AN size (e.g. AN-6, AN-8, AN-10, etc.).

Power steering systems use hydraulic pressure to make steering easier, especially at low speeds. AN fittings are commonly used in power steering systems, as they are designed to handle high-pressure hydraulic fluids and provide a leak-free connection. Brake SystemsN fittings are typically made of lightweight aluminum and have a 37-degree flare, making them suitable for use in high-stress and high-pressure systems. They can be found in fuel, oil, and cooling systems, as well as in turbocharger and nitrous oxide systems. AN fittings are also commonly used in custom automotive builds and modifications, where the builder or racer wants to create a unique and high-performance system. AN fittings, also known as Army-Navy fittings, are an essential component in various industries including automotive, aerospace, and motorsports. Read on to discover the world of AN fittings and how they can benefit your specific commercial application. The History of AN Fittings These sizes refer to the diameter of the fitting in 1/16th inch increments, for example AN-4 is 1/4 inch in diameter. These fittings are commonly used in automotive and aerospace applications for fluid transfer such as oil, fuel, and coolant systems. AN Fitting Types and Applications

The JIC/AN threads are a UNJF profile. The UNJF profile is a modified UNF profile. UNJ specifies a minimum and maximum root radius for the thread to increase strength. If you are wanting to make a JIC/AN fitting on your lathe, you can normally do so using standard 60° thread cutting tools. Dimensions ¶ Different applications have different requirements, such as pressure, temperature, and fluid compatibility. It’s important to choose AN fittings that meet the requirements of your specific application. Material

So remember: dash size is the size of hose, tube or fittings expressed in sixteenths of an inch. Hoses are measured by inside diameter, and tubes are measured in outside diameter. Fuel lines are an essential component in any vehicle, providing the necessary fuel to the engine. AN fittings are commonly used in high-performance fuel systems, as they are designed to handle high pressures and provide a secure connection. Oil Coolers Originally parts were made compliant to the specification MIL-F-5509, but they are now controlled under SAE AS (Aerospace Standards) specifications AS4841 through AS4843 and AS4875. These classes offer a thread fit that creates a balance between performance, manufacturing, economy, and convenience. It is the most commonly used class as 90% of all commercial and industrial fasteners use it. SAE J514/ISO 8434-2 fittings are produced to this class. What does a Class 3A and 3B thread fit mean?
