45 Male Elbow #8 To 1/4 Npt Steel Fitting

The 45 Male Elbow #8 To 1/4 NPT Steel Fitting by AEROQUIP is a crucial hydraulic and pneumatic adapter designed for custom fuel systems, intercooler lines, and high-pressure applications in automotive builds. This 45-degree elbow connects #8 JIC male ports to 1/4 NPT male ports, making it ideal for tight engine bays where space-efficient routing is critical.

Constructed from durable carbon steel with AEROQUIP's proven aerospace-grade engineering, the 45 Male Elbow fitting handles pressure cycles and vibration that can damage inferior brass or aluminum adapters. The 45-degree angle reduces stress concentration points compared to 90-degree elbows, extending line life in high-vibration engine compartments. Steel construction resists corrosion and provides superior thermal stability when exposed to engine heat, coolant, or fuel vapors.

This fitting is essential for fabricators and DIY builders upgrading from stock fuel systems to standalone EFI, custom turbo cooling loops, or aftermarket intercooler plumbing. The #8 JIC male end interfaces with high-pressure hose assemblies, while the 1/4 NPT male end connects to various applications, ensuring compatibility and reliability in performance-driven environments.
