Elbow 45 X #4 Flare X 1/8 NPT

The XRP-XTREME RACING PROD. Elbow 45 X #4 Flare X 1/8 NPT is a precision adapter fitting designed for high-performance fluid systems where space constraints or routing requirements demand a compact 45-degree connection. This aluminum elbow adapter bridges a #4 AN male flare port to a 1/8-inch NPT male thread, making it essential for fuel, coolant, and hydraulic line configurations in racing engines, marine powerplants, and performance fuel systems. The blue anodized finish provides corrosion resistance in demanding marine and automotive environments.

The 45-degree angle positioning allows for tight manifold or block mounting where straight or 90-degree configurations won't fit, reducing installation complexity and line routing distance. The #4 AN flare specification handles flows typical of high-output fuel injection and cooling systems, while the 1/8 NPT thread accepts sensor bungs, pressure gauges, and auxiliary component connections common to engine bay plumbing. Lightweight aluminum construction (0.04 lbs) minimizes system weight without sacrificing strength, and the blue anodized surface resists salt air corrosion—a critical advantage in offshore marine applications where aluminum fittings face constant exposure to moisture and spray.

This fitting is ideal for custom fuel systems in high-performance boats, race-prepared vehicles, and engine rebuild projects where OEM packaging doesn't accommodate modern fuel management or cooling upgrades. The combination of AN flare and NPT thread ports allows builders to integrate aftermarket sensors, transducers, and manifold components into vintage or heavily modified powerplants. Buyers should verify thread pitch and seal compatibility with their specific gauge or component before installation to ensure proper fit and leak-free operation.

XRP-XTREME RACING PROD. is recognized in the motorsports and marine aftermarket for precision-engineered fluid system components. This adapter represents a single unit solution—verify your flare port configuration and NPT gauge thread requirements before ordering to confirm compatibility with your system.
