The Male -8AN Flare Straight Hose End Fitting from VIBRANT PERFORMANCE is a straight-angle hose end built for -8 AN braided stainless steel hose. It mates to -8 AN male threads and uses a reusable swivel design, so a builder can disassemble, reposition, and reuse the fitting during a fuel, oil, or coolant plumbing job. Anyone running an AN line system on a street car, race car, or custom build will recognize this as a standard component for clean, leak-resistant connections. It lives in our wider fittings, hoses, and valves lineup alongside matching -8 AN hardware.
The body is machined from 6061 aluminum alloy and wears a black anodized finish that resists corrosion and the fluids common to automotive plumbing. The reusable swivel construction lets the hose end spin on the hose collar, which makes orientation easier when you torque the fitting against an adapter or union and helps prevent the hose from twisting under load. The straight configuration keeps flow unrestricted where bends aren't required. Sizing is -8 AN on both the hose connection and the male thread attachment, matching it directly to -8 AN braided stainless hose. Builders typically pair these straight ends with angled ends and -8 union fittings to route a full line around engine bay obstacles.
Reach for this straight hose end where a line runs to a fuel rail, oil cooler, surge tank, or pump inlet without needing a bend at the connection point. Because it's reusable, it suits prototype routing and final assembly alike — cut the hose, fit the end, then move it if the plan changes. Build out the rest of the system from our -8 straight hose ends and seal off open ports with matching -8 AN plugs. Stock a few extras so a single fitting never holds up a build.
It's designed for -8 AN braided stainless steel hose. The hose end attaches to the hose collar and uses -8 AN male threads on the connection side, matching it to standard -8 AN adapters, unions, and ports throughout an AN line system.
Yes. The reusable swivel design lets you disassemble and reinstall the hose end, which is useful for prototype routing or any build where the line layout might change. Cut the hose, install the end, and move it later if needed without scrapping the fitting.
The body is machined from 6061 aluminum alloy with a black anodized finish. The anodizing adds corrosion resistance and stands up to the fuel, oil, and coolant typically run through AN plumbing, while the aluminum keeps the weight low at roughly 0.12 lbs.
The straight configuration keeps fluid flow unrestricted where a line runs to a fitting without needing a bend. For tighter routing around engine bay obstacles, pair these straight ends with angled hose ends and union fittings to complete the run.
