JIC fittings, or Joint Industry Council fittings, seal through a metal-to-metal connection. They feature a 37-degree flare on the fitting end, which mates with a corresponding flare on the tube or hose, creating a tight, leak-proof seal when tightened. This design provides a reliable and reusable connection commonly used in hydraulic systems.
