The GRACO 116703 is a straight adapter fitting designed to connect 1/4-inch NPT (National Pipe Thread) to 3/4-16 JIC (Joint Industry Council) hydraulic connections. Its material is not explicitly stated in available sources, but similar adapters are typically made from steel or stainless steel for durability and compatibility with hydraulic and fluid handling systems. This adapter is intended for use within GRACO equipment to facilitate secure and leak-free connections between different thread standards, commonly found in lubrication, fluid dispensing, and hydraulic systems.

Key Features:

• Straight Adapter
• 1/4NPT x 3/4-16JIC
• Compatible with GRACO equipment requiring 1/4NPT to 3/4-16JIC connections
• Provides secure connection between different thread standards
• Designed for leak-free performance in hydraulic and fluid systems
• Reliable for use in demanding industrial environments

Applications:
Used in GRACO lubrication, fluid dispensing, and hydraulic systems where conversion between 1/4NPT and 3/4-16JIC connections is required. Suitable for various industries, including mining, agriculture, and manufacturing.

Installation Notes:

• Using genuine GRACO adapters ensures proper fit, leak prevention, and equipment reliability. Non-genuine parts may compromise system integrity and safety.
• Ensure threads are clean and free of debris before installation
• Apply appropriate thread sealant or tape as recommended for NPT connections
• Hand-tighten before using tools to avoid cross-threading
• Check for leaks after installation and during operation
• Regularly inspect for signs of wear, corrosion, or leaks
• Replace adapter if damaged or if leaks cannot be resolved
• Follow GRACO equipment maintenance schedules
