HYDRAULIC FITTING TORQUE CHART
Wipe fittings.
Apply LOCTITE Hydraulic Sealant to the first 1/3 (closest to the
flange or seas) of the fitting threads.
Seat flange hand tight, then torque to specification.
MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED TORQUE VALUES
FOR J I C SWIVEL NUTS (37° SEAT)
Use this chart every time hydraulic fittings are tightened or checked.
These values are the maximum recommended torque values for JIC (37°) Seat
Swivel Nuts either swaged or brazed type. The swivel nuts will normally
withstand this torque for a minimum of 15 repeated assemblies.
The torque required to seal swivel female fittings or hose couplings to
a male connector depends on many variables, such as fluid medium, pressure
surface finish, etc. The above values are intended only as a guide for
the maximum torque values the fitting may be subjected to.
Procedure: Torque per chart above. Back fitting off 1/2 turn and re-
tighten to recommended torque valve in chart.
