#10 150 Deg Startlite Crimp Fitting

The AEROQUIP #10 150 Degree Startlite Crimp Fitting (FBM4254) is a high-flow hydraulic hose end connector engineered for demanding fluid transfer applications requiring precise angle control and secure connection integrity. This 150-degree swivel fitting accommodates #10 AN hose with a crimp connection on one end and female swivel socket on the other, delivering the directional flexibility and leak-free performance critical in mobile equipment, aircraft hydraulic systems, and industrial machinery where space constraints and vibration resistance demand precision-engineered components.

Manufactured from aluminum in a red and silver color scheme, this fitting combines lightweight construction with corrosion resistance suitable for varied operational environments. The 150-degree angle configuration enables routing flexibility around structural obstacles and engine compartments without sacrificing flow rate or connection reliability. The crimp-to-swivel design allows tool-free disconnection and reconnection at the female end while maintaining a permanent, vibration-proof attachment at the crimp point—a configuration favored in aircraft and high-vibration systems where loose fittings pose safety risks. Weighing just 0.13 pounds, the compact profile fits tight spaces while maintaining full-rated pressure capacity across the hydraulic system's operating range.

This fitting addresses the needs of hydraulic technicians, aircraft maintenance personnel, mobile equipment operators, and industrial system integrators who require dependable AN-size connectors without compromises on flow, durability, or installation precision. Restocking existing systems, troubleshooting leaks, or building custom hydraulic assemblies all benefit from AEROQUIP's established reputation for pressure-rated reliability and consistent manufacturing tolerances. The #10 AN size handles flows and pressures typical in medium-duty applications while the swivel design absorbs minor misalignment during assembly—reducing installation stress and extending service intervals between major overhauls.
