The difference between JIC (Joint Industry Council) and SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) primarily lies in their specifications for hydraulic fittings and standards. JIC fittings are commonly used in hydraulic systems and are characterized by a 37-degree flare seating surface, while SAE standards cover a broader range of automotive and aerospace components, including fittings with a 45-degree flare angle. Both are used to ensure compatibility and performance in fluid power systems, but they cater to slightly different applications and design standards.
