#8 Flare 90 Deg Bulkhead Union Black

The #8 Flare 90 Deg Bulkhead Union Black is a precision hydraulic and pneumatic fitting engineered for applications requiring secure, leak-free connections at right angles. Designed for professionals in aerospace, automotive, industrial, and tactical equipment sectors, this bulkhead union accommodates systems where space constraints demand compact directional routing without sacrificing flow integrity. The 90-degree configuration allows technicians and engineers to redirect fluid or gas lines efficiently while maintaining a low-profile installation footprint.

Manufactured by AEROQUIP under MPN FCM5083, this bulkhead union features aluminum construction with black anodized finish, delivering corrosion resistance and durability in demanding environments. The dual 8 AN male ports ensure universal compatibility with standard aerospace and industrial quick-disconnect systems. The flare design—a 37-degree JIC standard—creates a metal-to-metal seal that withstands high pressures without reliance on elastomer seals alone, making it ideal for temperature-sensitive or aggressive fluid applications. Weighing just 0.14 lbs, the compact geometry (3.45 x 1.75 x 5.2 inches) facilitates installation in confined spaces without adding bulk to assemblies.

This fitting is essential for hydraulic brake systems, fuel delivery networks, cooling circuits, and pressurized gas distribution in aircraft, vehicles, and specialized equipment. Installation requires standard AN wrench sizes and professional-grade assembly practices to ensure proper torque and seal integrity. The anodized aluminum body resists oxidation and abrasion, extending service life in vibration-prone or outdoor-exposed applications. Technicians and OEM integrators rely on AEROQUIP fittings for repeatability and safety-critical performance across military, commercial aviation, and industrial sectors.
