Description

Coupling nut 1.1/16 UNF for seamless tube Ø 18-20

What is a 1.1/16 UNF flaring nut for 18-20 tube?

A flaring nut is a specialized component used in tube connection technology, where the tube end flaring method is used. In the presented product, we are dealing with a solution in the standard 1.1/16 JIC flaring nut, based on the UNF thread, which is commonly used in power hydraulics and industrial installations requiring high leak-tightness and vibration resistance. The model available in the Hydron offer, i.e. 1.1/16 UNF flaring nut Ø 18-20, is designed to work with a steel tube with an outer diameter of 18–20 mm. Thanks to the use of the UNF (Unified National Fine) standard and the JIC 37° system, we obtain a repeatable and reliable connection that is used in both hydraulic systems, as well as in fuel or industrial installations.

Operating principle of a flared connection

A connection using a UNF flaring nut is based on the mechanical deformation of the tube end, i.e., making a so-called flare at a 37° angle. In this process, the tube is properly prepared using flaring tools, and then pressed against the conical surface of the connector by the nut. The 1.1/16 flaring nut performs a very important function here – it is responsible for proper pressure and stabilization of the connection. Thanks to this, we obtain high leak-tightness without the need for additional seals, such as O-rings or washers. This solution is particularly valued in power hydraulics, where the reliability of connections has a direct impact on the safety of the entire system.

JIC standard and UNF thread – what does it mean in practice?

In the case of the Hydron product, the 1.1/16 JIC flaring nut standard was used, which is based on a 37° sealing angle and a UNF thread. UNF thread is characterized by a fine pitch, which allows for precise tightening and better control of the clamping force. For the user, this means greater durability of the connection and resistance to leaks even under variable operating conditions. The UNF flaring nut is widely used in agricultural and construction machinery, hydraulic systems, and in industry where international standards and component compatibility are required.

Construction and fit for 18-20 tube

The presented flaring nut has been designed to work with a tube with a diameter of 18–20 mm. In practice, this means that the entire system should be properly selected and also include supplementary elements.

In the Hydron offer, you will find compatible components that form a complete connection system:

Only the combination of these elements with a properly performed flaring operation guarantees the tightness and durability of the entire system.

Application of the flaring nut

The 1.1/16 UNF flaring nut is used wherever rigid pipelines are used. This solution is often chosen by professionals due to its durability and the possibility of multiple assembly and disassembly without losing sealing properties. Most often, the flaring nut is used in power hydraulics, fuel installations, lubrication systems, as well as in the machinery and automotive industries. The 1.1/16 flaring nut will work well both in service centers and in the production of new installations.

Most common errors when selecting a flaring nut

In practice, one of the most common problems is the incorrect matching of the tube diameter or thread standard. In the case of this product, it should be remembered that the UNF 1.1/16 flaring nut is intended for 18–20 tube and should not be used with other diameters without appropriate reductions. The second significant mistake is an incorrectly made flare. Even the best 1.1/16 JIC flaring nut will not ensure tightness if the flare surface is damaged or made at the wrong angle. Therefore, it is so important to use professional tools and maintain precision during assembly.

Hydron technical support-selection and application

Hydron is not only a supplier of power hydraulic components, but above all a technical partner for customers. If you are not sure whether a given flaring nut will be suitable for your installation, you can count on the support of experts at every stage of the order. Thanks to many years of experience and a wide warehouse offer, Hydron provides quick access to proven solutions consistent with industry norms and standards. Every product, including UNF flaring nut, comes from proven suppliers and meets the quality requirements applied in power hydraulics.

FAQ

How to choose a flaring nut? Selection should take into account the tube diameter, thread type, and connection standard. In this case, it is a 1.1/16 UNF flaring nut intended for 18-20 tube.

How does JIC differ from other systems? The JIC system is based on a 37° cone and UNF thread, which ensures high leak-tightness and ease of assembly without additional seals.

Does a UNF flaring nut require a gasket? No, sealing takes place on a metal-to-metal cone, therefore correct flare execution is crucial.
