90 Deg Alum #8 Flare 1/2 in Black

The AEROQUIP 90 Degree Aluminum #8 Flare 1/2 Inch Black (FCM5038) is a precision hydraulic and pneumatic adapter fitting designed to redirect flow at a 90-degree angle in fluid systems. This aluminum 90 degree flare fitting connects an 8 AN male flare port to a 1/2 inch NPT male threaded port, making it essential for routing hoses and lines around obstacles in compact spaces or where directional changes are required in hydraulic circuits.

Constructed from lightweight aluminum with black anodized finish, this AEROQUIP adapter meets standard AN (Army-Navy) specifications for the flare connection while accommodating NPT (National Pipe Thread) compatibility on the opposing end. The 90-degree configuration allows installers to navigate tight engine bays, custom builds, and industrial setups where straight adapters would create clearance conflicts. The anodized surface provides corrosion resistance in demanding environments while maintaining the weight savings inherent to aluminum construction. Weighing just 0.12 pounds, this fitting minimizes system mass without sacrificing structural integrity required for pressurized applications.

This adapter serves hydraulic system builders, automotive customizers, industrial equipment manufacturers, and motorsports enthusiasts who need reliable angled connections. Whether routing brake lines in custom hot rods, fuel system modifications, or aftermarket cooling circuits, the 90-degree geometry eliminates the need for multiple straight fittings and reduces potential leak points. The combination of AN flare and NPT thread formats makes this fitting particularly versatile for cross-component integration where mixed port standards are present.

AEROQUIP fittings are engineered to standard aerospace and industrial tolerances, ensuring repeatable performance across pressurized applications. This 90 degree adapter fitting is sold individually and pairs with complementary hose assemblies and straight fittings to complete custom fluid routing solutions.
