#3 Male Flare to #3 ORB Str Fitting

The #3 Male Flare to #3 ORB Str Fitting is a critical hydraulic adapter designed for anglers, boaters, and marine mechanics who demand reliability under pressure. Whether you're running high-performance fuel injection systems, hydraulic steering, or pressurized cooling lines on your vessel, this straight adapter bridges two industry-standard fitting types without compromising flow or safety. Built by XRP-XTREME RACING PROD., a trusted name in fluid delivery systems, this fitting is engineered to handle the vibration, temperature cycling, and constant motion inherent to marine environments.

Constructed from black anodized aluminum, the #3 Male Flare to #3 ORB Str Fitting combines lightweight construction with corrosion resistance—essential qualities for saltwater and freshwater boating. The male flare end connects to standard AN (Army Navy) flare fittings, while the O-ring boss (ORB) straight port accepts modern sealing ring adapters, eliminating the need for thread-sealing tape and reducing leak potential. Aluminum's superior heat dissipation keeps fluid temperatures stable during sustained high-throttle operation, while the black anodized finish provides long-term protection against oxidation and galvanic corrosion that plague uncoated fittings.

This fitting is ideal for retrofit projects, system repairs, and custom fuel or cooling system builds on performance boats, commercial fishing vessels, and high-horsepower outboards. The straight configuration ensures direct, unobstructed flow—critical when every pressure drop matters in fuel delivery or steering response. Installation is straightforward: hand-tighten the flare end, then use two wrenches to torque the ORB port to manufacturer specifications. For boaters upgrading aging AN systems or mixing legacy and modern component standards, the #3 Male Flare to #3 ORB Str Fitting provides the compatibility bridge that keeps your vessel running strong season after season.
