Hose Fitting #6 45 Deg. to #8 Hose Black

The FRAGOLA Hose Fitting #6 45 Deg. to #8 Hose Black (MPN 224505-BL) is a precision-engineered adapter designed for high-pressure fluid systems requiring reliable directional transitions. This 45-degree hose fitting connects a #8 AN hose to a #6 AN female port, making it an essential component in performance fuel systems, hydraulic setups, and custom plumbing applications where space constraints or system geometry demands angled connections rather than straight fittings.

Constructed from aluminum and finished in black anodized coating, this fitting delivers corrosion resistance and durability in demanding environments. The 45-degree angle minimizes pressure loss compared to using multiple fittings to achieve directional flow, while the aluminum construction keeps weight minimal—critical in race applications and vehicle builds where every ounce affects performance. The black anodized finish provides both aesthetic consistency and protective oxidation against moisture and environmental exposure.

This adapter is essential for builders working with AN hose systems where port sizing differs between components. Common applications include fuel system routing in turbocharged and supercharged engines, transmission cooler line integration, and custom hydraulic brake setups where the 45-degree angle allows efficient hose routing around engine bay obstacles. The mix of #6 and #8 AN sizes accommodates transitions between main fuel lines and smaller branch circuits or component connections.

FRAGOLA is recognized in the performance automotive and motorsports community for consistent quality in hose fittings and adapters. This fitting's compact footprint (measuring 2.05 × 1.15 × 4.2 inches) fits tight engine bays and custom installations, while the proven AN standard ensures compatibility across manufacturers and system designs.
