#8 90 Degree Hose End Push Lock

The Triple X Race Components #8 90 Degree Hose End Push Lock fitting (model HF-19008BLK) is a precision hydraulic hose connector engineered for high-performance racing and automotive applications. This 90-degree AN hose fitting connects 8 AN hose barb to 8 AN female threads, delivering secure, leak-free connections in fuel systems, cooling loops, and brake circuits where reliability under extreme conditions is non-negotiable.

Constructed from aluminum and finished in black anodize, this push-lock design eliminates the need for separate ferrules and clips, reducing assembly time while maintaining full integrity of the connection. The 90-degree orientation optimizes space in tight engine bays and complex plumbing layouts common to track cars, drag vehicles, and street rods. The barbed inlet creates a mechanical grip on the hose, while the female thread end accepts standard AN adapters and components. At just 0.08 lbs and compact dimensions, it adds minimal weight to fuel and fluid systems where every fraction of a pound matters.

This fitting serves racers, engine builders, and restoration specialists who demand OEM-grade component quality in custom-built systems. Whether routing -8 AN hose around a modified intake manifold, constructing a custom cooling circuit, or assembling a fuel system for a supercharged application, the push-lock design simplifies installation while the aluminum construction resists corrosion better than zinc-plated alternatives.

Triple X Race Components is recognized in circle track racing and high-performance fabrication for producing consistent, competition-proven fittings and adapters. The -8 AN standard is the industry benchmark for mid-range hydraulic flow in performance applications, balancing pressure capacity with hose manageability. This specific fitting SKU (TXRHF-19008-BLK) is sold individually, allowing builders to purchase only the connectors needed for their custom build.
