#8 90 Deg Auto-Mate

The #8 90 Deg Auto-Mate hose fitting is engineered for fluid transfer systems that demand reliable, leak-free connections at 90-degree angles. Designed by EARLS, a trusted name in automotive and motorsports hydraulics, this fitting serves technicians, builders, and enthusiasts who need secure hose-to-port adapters for brake lines, fuel systems, and custom plumbing applications. The 90-degree configuration saves space in tight engine bays and component layouts where straight fittings won't fit.

This Auto-Mate fitting transitions an 8 AN hose barb (the input side) to an 8 AN female port (the output), making it a versatile adapter for existing hose systems. Constructed from aluminum and finished in blue anodized coating, the material provides corrosion resistance while the anodize protects against oxidation in harsh underhood environments. The 90-degree elbow design distributes pressure evenly while reducing kinks and fatigue on hose material, extending service life and preventing premature failure at connection points.

This fitting is ideal for custom fuel system builds, race car hydraulics, brake line modifications, and any application using AN (Army-Navy) standard connections. Its compact footprint—measuring 2.4 x 1 x 2.75 inches and weighing just 0.06 lbs—fits easily into confined spaces without compromising flow or durability. Installation is straightforward: secure the barb side into your hose with a hose clamp, then thread the female end onto your component's port or adapter. Compatible with all 8 AN systems using standard -8 hose and fittings.
