S/S Flare Jet - .044

The S/S Flare Jet - .044 from Nitrous Oxide Systems is a precision stainless steel nitrous jet engineered for carburetor-fed and fuel injection nitrous oxide systems. This component is essential for tuners and performance mechanics building street or strip engines that demand consistent nitrous distribution. The .044-inch internal diameter orifice controls the critical flow rate of nitrous oxide into the combustion chamber, making jet selection fundamental to safe, reliable, and repeatable power delivery across varying engine loads and atmospheric conditions.

Constructed from stainless steel, the flare-jet design ensures durability and resistance to corrosion from nitrous oxide exposure while maintaining precise orifice tolerances that directly influence fuel–oxidizer ratios. The .044-inch metering diameter is sized for moderate to moderately aggressive nitrous systems, bridging the gap between smaller jets for conservative tunes and larger jets for full-capacity systems. The flare configuration allows secure seating in standard NOS manifold blocks, preventing leakage and ensuring repeatability across consecutive passes. Proper jet sizing prevents lean-out conditions (which risk detonation) and overly rich mixture (which wastes fuel and nitrous without proportional power gain).

Performance builders selecting this jet should verify their system's total nitrous capacity, fuel delivery capability, and target horsepower output—jets work in matched pairs (nitrous and fuel) and must complement both the engine's cubic displacement and fuel system response. This .044 flare jet is ideal for turbocharged four-cylinder, small-block V8, and medium-displacement naturally aspirated engines running moderate boost or compression ratios. Installation requires removal of the manifold block from the nitrous system bottle, making the process straightforward for experienced tuners. Proper jetting ensures smooth, linear power delivery and protects engine internals from detonation-induced damage.
