#6 90 Deg Startlite Crimp Fitting

The #6 90 Degree Startlite Crimp Fitting from AEROQUIP is a crucial component for hydraulic connections, particularly in applications involving fuel and fluid lines. This fitting is ideal for automotive and motorsports settings where routing at right angles is necessary, ensuring a secure and leak-free seal. It is particularly useful in tight engine bay configurations or custom fuel system layouts.

Designed for use with #6 hose (3/8-inch outer diameter), the 90-degree Startlite crimp fitting utilizes AEROQUIP's crimped-connection technology. This method eliminates the need for thread-sealed connections, which can be prone to leaks under vibration and thermal cycling. The crimp design mechanically locks the hose into the fitting body, creating a permanent bond that withstands engine vibration and high temperatures.

This fitting is particularly beneficial for professional mechanics and automotive enthusiasts who require reliable performance in custom fuel delivery systems or hydraulic line fabrication. Its compact size and lightweight design make it suitable for space-constrained applications, such as custom fuel cell installations or tight underbody routing scenarios.
