The Vibrant Performance 28980 is a set of five replacement olive inserts sized for -10AN PTFE-lined flex hose ends. The olive, sometimes called a ferrule, is the cone-shaped ring that bites onto the PTFE liner and holds the hose captive inside the fitting body. Anyone assembling or rebuilding braided PTFE lines for fuel, oil, or brake applications needs these on hand, since the original olive often deforms or stays stuck on the hose when a fitting is taken apart. This 5-pack lets you reuse your existing hose ends instead of scrapping them, which is why it lives in our fittings, hoses, and valves lineup.
Each olive is machined from 6061 aluminum with a natural finish, giving you a clean, precise cone ferrule with a 0.625 inch inside diameter that matches -10AN PTFE-lined flex hose. PTFE liners do not behave like rubber, so they need a dedicated insert geometry to seal correctly. When the hose end socket is threaded down, the olive compresses against the liner and forms the leak-proof joint that holds line pressure. Aluminum construction keeps weight low while resisting the fuels, oils, and coolants these lines typically carry. The set of five gives you spares for an assembly session, since these parts are easy to lose or distort during a rebuild. Pair them with matching -10 straight hose ends when you build a fresh line.
Reach for these any time you cut, re-terminate, or rebuild a -10AN PTFE line. Reassembling a hose end without a fresh olive is the most common cause of slow leaks at the fitting, so keeping a 5-pack in the toolbox saves a return trip. They work with standard -10AN PTFE hose end hardware and -10 PTFE-lined flex hose. When you are sizing out a full system, check our -10 tube sleeves and the broader range of -10 fittings to match every connection on the run.
The olive, or ferrule, is the cone-shaped ring that seats inside a -10AN PTFE hose end. When the socket is threaded down, the olive compresses against the PTFE liner and locks the hose in place, forming the leak-proof seal that holds line pressure on fuel, oil, and brake lines.
Olives often deform or remain stuck on the old hose when a fitting is disassembled. Reusing a distorted olive is the most common cause of slow leaks at the fitting. Installing a fresh insert lets you reuse the hose end hardware while restoring a clean, reliable seal.
These olives are sized for -10AN PTFE-lined flex hose and standard -10AN PTFE hose end fittings. The 0.625 inch inside diameter matches the PTFE liner on -10 hose. They are not interchangeable with rubber or other AN sizes.
This is a set of five olive inserts, per manufacturer specifications. Having spares on hand is useful during a rebuild, since the parts are small and easy to lose or distort while threading a hose end together.
Each olive is machined from 6061 aluminum with a natural finish. Aluminum keeps weight down while resisting the fuels, oils, and coolants typically carried in these lines.
