To identify a JIC (Joint Industry Council) fitting, look for a 37-degree flare at the end of the fitting, which distinguishes it from other types like the 45-degree flare found in SAE fittings. Additionally, JIC fittings typically have straight threads and are often used in hydraulic applications, making them compatible with other fittings of the same standard. You can also measure the thread size and pitch to ensure compatibility with JIC specifications.
