#8 45 Deg Hose Fitting P/C Crimp-On

The Russell #8 45 Degree Hose Fitting with Crimp-On connection is a precision hydraulic and fuel line adapter engineered for high-pressure applications in custom automotive builds, off-road fabrication, and performance engine conversions. This 45-degree angle fitting provides the tight directional control necessary when space constraints or tight engine compartment layouts demand non-straight hose routing without compromising flow or structural integrity.

Constructed from aluminum and finished in black and silver anodized coating, the fitting accepts 8 AN hose via permanent crimp connection and threads to a matching 8 AN female port. The 45-degree design minimizes fitting count and reduces potential leak points compared to using multiple 90-degree adapters. Weighing just 0.12 lbs and measuring 2.55 x 1.55 x 4.9 inches, it integrates cleanly into tight fabrication scenarios without adding bulk. The anodized finish resists corrosion in both street and motorsports environments, maintaining integrity through thermal cycling and exposure to fuel, coolant, and brake fluid.

This fitting serves builders working on custom fuel systems, turbo plumbing, brake line routing, transmission cooler installations, and any situation where precise line placement matters. The crimp-on design eliminates threading concerns and delivers consistent, repeatable connections across multiple installations. Sold individually, ensuring the exact fitment needed for single-point repairs or staged system builds.

Russell has maintained a strong position in the performance hose and fitting space by prioritizing dimensional accuracy and material consistency—qualities that distinguish production-run fittings from salvage or surplus stock. The 8 AN size sits at the mid-range of common motorsports plumbing, handling both moderate cooling circuits and fuel delivery systems without oversizing or undersizing the line diameter.
