#20 90 Degree Hose End

The AEROQUIP #20 90 Degree Hose End (model FBM1037) is a precision hydraulic and pneumatic fitting designed for applications requiring compact, angled connections in high-performance systems. This 90-degree adapter bridges 20 AN (dash-20) male hose connections to 20 AN female ports, making it essential for aerospace, motorsports, industrial hydraulics, and equipment where space is constrained and directional fluid transfer is critical. Whether configuring race car fuel systems, aircraft fuel delivery lines, or heavy equipment hydraulic assemblies, this fitting provides the directional routing needed without introducing sharp bends that compromise flow integrity.

Manufactured from aluminum and finished with blue and red anodizing, the #20 90 Degree Hose End delivers corrosion resistance and lightweight performance—critical attributes in aerospace and marine environments where weight and durability intersect. The 90-degree geometry allows hose routing around tight corners and engine bay obstacles while maintaining a sealed, secure connection; the anodized surface protects against oxidation and chemical exposure. At 0.44 lbs and compact dimensions (3.75 x 2.15 x 6 inches), this fitting integrates seamlessly into modular hydraulic assemblies without adding bulk or weight penalty, ideal for systems where every fraction of an ounce matters.

Technicians and system builders installing 20 AN hose assemblies benefit most from this fitting when designing fuel injection systems, brake line configurations, or cooling circuits that demand reliable, leak-free performance under vibration and thermal cycling. The female 20 AN port accepts standard hose fittings and quick-connect couplers, offering flexibility in assembly sequences and future reconfiguration. Installation is straightforward: thread the hose onto the male end and torque the female port connection to specification; AEROQUIP's reputation for precision ensures JIC (Joint Industry Council) compatibility and consistent thread engagement across all connections.
