Endura Hose Fitting - #8 45 Degree

The Russell Endura Hose Fitting #8 45 Degree is a full-flow aluminum hose end connector engineered for high-pressure hydraulic and fuel line applications where space constraints or angled routing is required. Manufactured by Russell, a recognized leader in performance plumbing systems, this 45-degree AN fitting maintains full flow capacity while enabling flexible line layout in custom engine bays, chassis builds, and fluid transfer systems where straight fittings cannot accommodate the required geometry.

Rated for 8 AN hose (common in mid-range fuel and cooling systems), the fitting features a nickel anodized aluminum body that resists corrosion while maintaining the lightweight profile critical in performance and racing applications. The 45-degree angle allows builders to route hoses around engine components, frame rails, and firewall obstructions without kinking, which preserves flow velocity and system integrity. The female AN port accepts standard 8 AN male hose ends, ensuring compatibility with the widespread -8 hose standard used across street rods, race vehicles, off-road builds, and custom hydraulic setups.

This fitting serves builders and technicians who prioritize clean plumbing layouts without pressure loss or flow restriction. Compact and lightweight, it integrates into tight engine compartments and minimizes stress on hose lines by allowing natural routing paths. Whether upgrading fuel delivery on a carbureted engine swap, routing coolant in a radiator reconfiguration, or managing brake fluid in a custom chassis, the 45-degree geometry eliminates the need for multiple 90-degree fittings that compound restriction and complexity.
