1|C 37 nare ttlngs seal wlth metal to metal contact
between the nared nose of the ttlng and the nared
tube face ln the female connectlon.
Leaks can result from vlbratlon, thermal cycllng and
from loads belng supported by the connectlon (l.e.
uslng the ttlng ln the connectlon to support mechanl-
cal loads).
whenever posslble, we hlghly recommend uslng SAL
O-rlng or 1|C ttlngs. 8oth of these provlde a hlghly
rellable, reusable connectlon. Slnce these ttlngs dont
rely on mechanlcal deformatlon to create a seal, the rlsk
of a broken ttlng or port ls vlrtually ellmlnated.

JIC 37 Thread Identication & Torque
TORQUE VALUES: The mlnlmum torque values llsted
are to provlde a benchmark that glve optlmum results
for leak free connectlons. Actual torque values should
be based on lndlvldual appllcatlon.
STEP 1: |nspect for posslble contamlnatlon or damage
from shlpplng or handllng. Seallng surface should be
smooth. Annular tool marks of l00uln concentrlc wlth
thread are permlsslble.
STEP 2: Lubrlcate the threads and the entlre surface of
the cone wlth hydraullc nuld or a llght lubrlcant.
STEP 3: Allgn matlng components for hand connectlon
and turn nare nut untll seallng surfaces make full
contact.
STEP 4: Torque nut to the values shown ln the table on
the left hand slde of thls page. |f a wrench pad ls
provlded next to nut, place a second wrench on pad to
prevent nare from rotatlng whlle belng torqued.
STEP 5: when torqulng nut onto a stralght nared ttlng,
lt may be necessary to also place a wrench on the nared
ttlng wrench pad to prevent lt from turnlng durlng
assembly.
wet torqulng ls the practlce of uslng your systems hydraullc
nuld to lubrlcate the threads and o-rlng of the ttlngs before
lnstallatlon. Due to dlnerences ln materlals, platlng types and
thlckness, and thread quallty of dlnerent components, the
coemclent of frlctlon varles greatly on any glven assembly.
Lubrlcatlon not only produces a more conslstent coemclent of
frlctlon, lt lncreases clamplng force on seallng area wlth less
torque on threads. Over tlghtenlng causes threads to yleld,
deform, and therefore lose thelr ablllty to malntaln an
adequate load or clamplng force on the seatlng area.
Lxtended operatlon and severe condltlons cause further
yleldlng whlch results ln leaks. To not wet torque ls to
compromlse conslstency and quallty for convenlence.
STEP 1: |f torque method not posslble, follow steps l-3
above, then proceed to the steps below.
STEP 2: Llghtly wrench tlghten the nut untll there ls
rm reslstance.
STEP 3: Place a wrench on wrench pad next to nut as
near the 6 oclock posltlon as posslble.
STEP 4: Place second wrench on nut as near the 3
oclock posltlon as posslble.
STEP 5: Turn nut clockwlse to no less than the 4 oclock
posltlon, but no more than the 6 oclock posltlon.
Pequlred rotatlon generally decreases as slze lncreases.
