#10 Male Flare to #8 ORB Str Fitting

The #10 Male Flare to #8 ORB Str Fitting (XRP980009) is a precision hydraulic adapter designed to bridge two different port configurations in high-performance fuel, oil, and coolant systems. This fitting serves as a critical transition component in racing, marine, and industrial applications where reliable fluid routing and pressure integrity are non-negotiable. XRP-XTREME RACING PRODUCTS manufactures this connector to handle the demands of custom-built engines, fuel systems, and transmission coolers where OEM ports do not align.

This adapter features a #10 male flare connection on one end that mates with standard SAE 37-degree flare fittings, while the #8 ORB (O-Ring Boss) straight port on the opposite end accepts ISO 1219 ported components. The male flare design ensures leak-free sealing under pressure through a wedging action between the conical flare seat and the fitting's bore, while the ORB straight configuration accommodates O-ring seals for superior vibration resistance in high-vibration environments. Precision machining from quality materials allows this fitting to maintain structural integrity across extreme temperature fluctuations and sustained pressure cycles typical in performance applications.

Engineers and builders benefit from this fitting when retrofitting modern fuel injection systems, upgrading transmission lines, or integrating aftermarket cooling solutions into vehicles with mixed port standards. Installation is straightforward—the male flare end threads directly into flare-ported manifolds or adapters, while the ORB end receives a compatible port block or manifold component. Weighing just 0.08 lbs with compact dimensions of 2.7 x 1.25 x 4 inches, it fits tight engine bays and cramped plumbing spaces without sacrificing flow capacity. Verify port sizes and thread pitches on your existing components before purchase to ensure proper fit and sealing performance.
