8AN Hose End 8AN ORB End 45deg Tube Black

The 8AN Hose End 8AN ORB End 45deg Tube Black fitting from REDHORSE PERFORMANCE is a precision-engineered hydraulic and fuel line connector designed for high-performance automotive, marine, and motorsports applications. This swivel fitting serves as the critical interface between rigid fuel or coolant lines and flexible hoses, allowing controlled directional flow while maintaining leak-free operation under pressure. Built for professionals and serious enthusiasts who demand reliability in demanding environments, this 45-degree angled connector reduces stress on adjacent components and improves packaging efficiency in tight engine compartments.

Constructed from anodized aluminum, the 8AN Hose End 8AN ORB End 45deg Tube Black features a swivel design that permits unrestricted rotation without disconnection, eliminating torque transfer to connected hoses and fittings during installation and vibration cycles. The 45-degree tube orientation directs flow at an angle, optimizing clearance and reducing bend radius requirements in constrained spaces. The male O-ring boss (ORB) end accommodates standard SAE J518 O-ring boss ports, ensuring compatibility with factory and aftermarket manifolds, blocks, and distribution blocks. The black anodized finish provides both corrosion resistance and a professional appearance while protecting the aluminum substrate from oxidation and chemical attack.

This fitting is ideal for fuel injection systems, nitrous oxide delivery lines, coolant bypass circuits, and oil cooling applications where space constraints demand angled connections and swivel functionality. Installation requires no special tools beyond a standard wrench for the ORB port and hose clamp for the 8AN hose barb end. Technicians and builders routinely specify REDHORSE PERFORMANCE fittings for their durability and precision engineering in competitive racing, street performance builds, and custom marine systems. The compact 4 x 1.41 x 6-inch footprint and lightweight 0.185-pound design make it suitable for weight-conscious applications without compromising strength or reliability.
