EVIL ENERGY 8AN 90° Swivel Hose End Fitting — Forged 6061-T6 Aluminium, Short-Profile 3/4-16 UNF 37° Seal

EVIL ENERGY's 8AN 90° swivel hose end fitting is a compact, forged 6061-T6 aluminum connector engineered to join 8AN braided hoses at a sealed 37° threaded seat for tight-space routing.

If you need a durable, space-saving hose end for high-performance fluid lines, this 8AN 90-degree swivel fitting offers a forged body, a sealed 3/4-16 UNF (8AN) threaded end, and compatibility with stainless-steel or nylon braided hoses. Designed for workshops and race applications, it withstands wide temperatures and pressures while letting you orient hose runs precisely where clearance is limited.

How does this fitting save space in cramped installations?

The short-profile 90° swivel design reduces the overall hose assembly footprint so it fits where straight fittings would interfere. The bend portion is forged for strength while keeping external dimensions compact.

• Compact 90° elbow minimizes clearance requirements.
• Swivel action lets you rotate the hose end to the optimal angle during installation.
• Forged body maintains strength without bulk.

What hoses and threads are compatible with the EVIL ENERGY 8AN fitting?

This fitting is made for 8AN hose systems with a 3/4-16 UNF thread and a 37° seating angle; it pairs only with stainless-steel braided and nylon braided 8AN hoses. It's not intended for non-braided or incompatible hose types.

• Thread: 8AN (3/4-16 UNF) with 37° sealing seat.
• Compatible hoses: stainless-steel braided and nylon braided 8AN hoses.
• Not suitable for push-on or unbraided hoses.

How tough is the fitting—pressure, temperature, and material details?

Manufactured from 6061-T6 aluminum with a forged bend section, the fitting balances light weight and mechanical resilience. It handles typical automotive and performance fluid conditions within the rated limits.

• Material: forged 6061-T6 aluminum alloy for strength and corrosion resistance.
• Maximum working pressure: 1,500 PSI under recommended conditions.
• Operating temperature range: -40°F to 250°F (-40°C to 121°C).

How does the swivel feature affect installation and maintenance?

The swivel allows final hose orientation after the threaded connection is tightened, simplifying alignment and reducing hose twist. That makes field adjustments and replacements faster with less risk of hose stress.

• Rotate hose end to desired angle without rotating the entire assembly.
• Reduces torque transfer to the hose during tightening.
• Simplifies replacement in confined engine or chassis locations.

Who is this for: Installers, racers, and hobbyists who run braided 8AN fluid lines and need a reliable, low-profile 90° connection will benefit most. Use it when clearance is limited, when you require a forged aluminum component for reduced weight, and when system temperatures and pressures stay within the listed ratings. Not intended for unbraided hose systems or applications exceeding the specified pressure/temperature limits.
