JIC connections, manufactured according to ISO 8434-2, commonly found in carbon steel and stainless alloys, are fastening connections with UN/UNF type parallel threads. أ 37 degree taper is on corresponding fittings. Sealing is achieved by establishing contact between the cones of the male part and the cones of the female part, usually used in medium and high pressure systems. لكن, there are certain limitations when applied to systems with high vibration rates. The meeting of two completely metal surfaces is called a metal-to-metal seal and is a completely mechanical connection.

Disadvantages of JIC connection:
- The pressure rating of the hydraulic hose fittings for this connection is medium to high.
- Metal-to-metal seal design limits their use in hydraulics and can only withstand light to moderate vibration in most applications.
- The connection method is simple and the structure is compact, so it is easy to overtighten during installation or maintenance.
- JIC is easily damaged and cracked by overtightening.
- It has limited reusability due to metal-to-metal seal type.
