Most of us use JIC everywhere as the 1/4 hoses have the dual cone seal and will hook up to the SAE or JIC fittings, you are correct the 3/8 is different. So putting a 1/4 ORB to 1/4 JIC or 1/4 SAE fitting on the pump would be the same outcome for most of us. HVAC stuff will most likely always be SAE flare.
I posted a chart a few weeks ago in another thread about the threading compatibilities between JIC and SAE.
I'm still not sure if discount hydraulics hose is static dissipating or not and whether their fittings are stainless, I'll call tomorrow and find those out.
Looking like discount hydraulics might be the way to go if you want 3/8 hose with 1/4 fittings.
How dare you suggest such a part in a stainless steel fitting thread!
Copper, brass, wtf? Are you sleeping? I know the pic is black n white but doesnt mean SS broham
Brass and SS
"* Available in Stainless Steel. Add SS to the part#"
lol i saw this but wanted to see how many people would miss it. good find man
I feel pretty safe saying a 3/8 M JIC x 1/4 F SAE SS does not exist. I wish it did.
