JIC fittings

I posted this yesterday in the attachments section. I should have posted here in hydraulics.

Here's the link. Trying to gain an understanding as to the why of what I see.

Welding can cover many fields!
I have a Jinma Backhoe made in China. I modified it to fit my Branson 3510.
When Chinese hose failed my local-national hydraulics shop could not match up the fitting!
So I took the fitting from the old hose and gas welded a JIC fitting to it and installed AMERICAN MADE hoses!
Welding requires creativity!
