90 Deg -8 A/C Fitting

The 90 Degree -8 A/C Fitting (FCE1733) is a precision hose end connector engineered for refrigerant systems requiring reliable 90-degree fluid routing. This AN hose fitting accommodates 8 AN hose to 8 AN female O-ring connections, making it a direct replacement or upgrade component for automotive air conditioning circuits, refrigeration lines, and fluid transfer applications where compact angular routing is essential.

Constructed from steel with nickel plating, this fitting delivers corrosion resistance and durability in demanding environments. The O-ring face seal design ensures leak-free connections under pressure, eliminating the need for thread sealant tape and reducing installation complexity. The 90-degree angle configuration minimizes hose bends and saves valuable space in tight engine compartments or equipment housings where straight fittings cannot accommodate the line routing geometry. At 0.29 lbs with compact dimensions (3.5 × 1.75 × 5.35 inches), it integrates seamlessly into existing systems without adding bulk.

This connector is ideal for technicians, shop professionals, and enthusiasts rebuilding or modifying refrigeration systems, custom automotive cooling circuits, or high-performance air conditioning setups. Whether you're restoring a classic vehicle, servicing industrial refrigerant lines, or assembling a custom fluid system, this 8 AN fitting provides the angular connection capability needed for precise line layouts. The nickel-plated steel construction withstands repeated service cycles and exposure to refrigerant and moisture without degradation.

AN (Army-Navy) standard fittings are industry-standard across automotive, marine, and industrial applications due to their reliable O-ring seal design and compatibility with both metric and imperial line sizing. The -8 designation indicates an 8 AN size, which handles flow volumes suitable for mid-range cooling and refrigeration systems while maintaining pressure integrity across normal operating ranges.

TacticalSurplusUSA stocks this FCE1733 fitting individually, allowing you to source exact replacements or build custom assemblies without minimum order requirements. Each unit is ready to install and meets standard AN specifications for pressure-rated fluid connections.
