Description
Mishimoto Aluminum PTFE 8AN 45 Degree Fitting Black provides precise 45° routing for 8AN PTFE lines, enabling secure hose direction control and improved packaging reliability in tight engine bays.
This fitting combines an aluminum body with PTFE hose compatibility and a black finish to deliver functional routing, component durability, and a discreet appearance. Designed by Mishimoto, it is intended for installations where controlled hose geometry and robust materials are required.
Key technical features and why they matter
- Aluminum body — Lightweight corrosion-resistant construction reduces mass at the connection point while maintaining structural integrity under thermal cycling.
- PTFE hose compatibility — Accepts PTFE-lined hoses for chemical resistance and low-friction flow surfaces, simplifying installation with PTFE hose assemblies.
- 8AN sizing — Standard 8AN thread/ID interface supports common performance plumbing sizes, ensuring predictable flow capacity for many applications.
- 45° angle — Fixed 45-degree orientation enables cleaner hose routing around obstacles and reduces sharp bends that can stress hose assemblies.
- Black finish — Low-profile aesthetic that integrates with engine-bay components while providing additional surface protection.
- Mishimoto engineering — Manufactured under the Mishimoto brand, indicating focus on performance cooling and fluid-routing components.
Use this fitting where reliable directional control of an 8AN PTFE hose is required and where a durable aluminum connection with a black finish is preferred. The design supports cleaner installations and helps maintain organized fluid lines in performance builds.
