#3 Stl Swivel (Teflon)

The AEROQUIP #3 Steel Swivel (Teflon) hose end fitting (FCM1100) is a precision hydraulic connection component designed for automotive builders and professional mechanics who require reliable performance under demanding conditions. This swivel fitting effectively addresses common issues such as vibration-induced hose fatigue and connection failure, making it ideal for various applications.

Constructed from hardened steel with a Teflon (PTFE) swivel seat, the #3 Steel Swivel is engineered to withstand the dynamic forces of modern powertrains. Its swivel geometry allows for rotational movement without compromising the seal, effectively absorbing vibration energy and preventing hose twisting that could lead to leaks over time. This design ensures concentricity and surface finish tolerances that promote leak-free connections.

Ideal for builders integrating AN-style hose systems into custom fuel systems, cooling circuits, and hydraulic brake installations, this fitting is particularly beneficial in environments where engine or chassis vibration is a constant concern. Its robust construction and design make it suitable for both street and competition applications, although users should verify specific SAE compliance for their needs.
