Description

A PCV valve that swivels, so the hose leaves at the angle your engine bay actually allows.

The Radium Engineering 10AN ORB swivel PCV valve to 8.5mm barb combines a true load-metering PCV valve with a low profile swivel banjo body, letting the outlet be aimed in any direction after installation and terminating in an 8.5mm hose barb, which suits 5/16 inch vent hose. The internal plunger meters crankcase vent airflow against engine load rather than simply passing flow one way, which prevents the vacuum leak a plain check valve creates at low load and blocks combustible vapor from igniting in the crankcase during a backfire. Stainless steel 10AN ORB body with an anodized aluminum quick connect section.

Features

  • Inlet: 10AN ORB (7/8in-14 threads), stainless steel
  • Outlet: 8.5mm hose barb
  • Low profile swivel body
  • FKM and silicone sealing O-rings
  • Load-metering plunger, not a one-way check valve

The Details

Clearance matters on this one. The swiveling PCV valves sit slightly taller than a standard 10AN ORB fitting and need an extra 0.26 inch (6.7mm) of depth past the threads for the O-ring to seat properly. That means they are not compatible with standard catch cans or standard Fluid Lock catch cans, but they do fit all Radium Competition catch cans and Radium PCV baffle plates, and they will thread into any other 10AN ORB female port that offers the extra depth. Secure the barb end with a proper clamp. For a straight 3/8 inch barb without the swivel, the 20-0530 covers that conversion.

Applications

  • Universal, Radium Competition catch cans, PCV baffle plates, or any 10AN ORB female port with 0.26in additional clearance
