Description

Push-on hose turns corners best when the fitting does the turning.

The Radium Engineering 8AN 90 Degree Push-Lok Hose End terminates 8AN-size push-on hose with a hard 90: the barbed stem grips push-on style hose without clamps as the hose is engineered to seal, and the swivel nut mates to any 8AN male flare. The larger sibling of Radium's 6AN Push-Lok ends, for vent, coolant, and low-pressure fuel routing in 8AN sizing.

What You'll Feel

  • Tight-radius routing handled at the fitting instead of by strained hose
  • Clampless retention the way push-on hose is designed to work
  • A swiveling nut clocking the assembly during install

Features

  • 8AN 90 degree Push-Lok (push-on) hose end
  • For push-on style hose only; barbed stem retention without clamps
  • Swivel nut mates to standard 8AN male flares

The Details

Push-Lok sealing is interference-based, with the specially constructed hose stretching over the barbed stem and gripping permanently, which makes the pairing hose-specific: braided and PTFE hose do not belong on these stems, and adding a clamp afterward can actually compromise the seal. Press the hose fully to the stem's shoulder, ideally with a drop of lubricant on the stem, and let the design do its work. The 8AN nut installs dry on its flare, hand tight plus 1/4 to 1/2 turn. Sold individually.
