SAE J514 Standard
The SAE J514 standard pertains to 37-degree flare fittings, encompassing pipe fittings and adapter unions used in conjunction with these tube fittings. These fittings are designed for general use in hydraulic systems on industrial and commercial equipment.
With the ability to create leakproof and full-flow connections in hydraulic systems, these fittings are subjected to various factors that may influence the satisfactory performance of a hydraulic system. To ensure safe and satisfactory performance levels, extensive testing and review by both users and manufacturers are recommended.
ISO 8434-2 Standard
ISO 8434-2:2007 outlines the general and dimensional requirements for the design and performance of 37° flared connectors. These connectors are suitable for use with ferrous and non-ferrous tubes with outside diameters ranging from 6 mm to 50.8 mm.
These connectors are designed for connecting tubes and hose fittings to ports in accordance with several ISO standards, including ISO 6149‑1, ISO 1179‑1, ISO 9974‑1, and ISO 11926‑1. Additionally, ISO 8434-2:2007 specifies a performance and qualification test for 37° flared connectors.
Comparison
While both the SAE J514 and ISO 8434-2 standards pertain to hydraulic adapters with 37-degree flared fittings (also known as JIC hydraulic fittings), they are separate standards governing the same product. The differences lie in the specific requirements and guidelines set out in each standard.
