FAQs

What type of hose does this fitting work with?

This fitting is designed exclusively for 100R6 socketless hose. It will not work with braided hose or other types.

Do I need any special tools to install this?

No, assembly is tool-free. The hose simply pushes onto the fitting, and the barbs secure it.

Can I use this for high-pressure fuel lines?

This fitting is best suited for low to moderate pressure applications like oil or vacuum lines. It is not recommended for high-pressure fuel systems.

What is the thread size and type?

The thread sizes available include various BSP and JIC standards. This specific model has a 1/2 BSP thread.

What does the '45 deg' in the product name refer to?

It indicates that the fitting has a 45-degree angle between the hose connection and the threaded end, aiding in hose routing.

How do I ensure a leak-proof seal?

Push the compatible socketless hose firmly onto the fitting until it is fully seated over the barbs. A secure connection is achieved when the hose cannot be easily pulled off.

Troubleshooting

Hose leaks after installation

Ensure the hose is pushed on completely to engage the barbs. Verify you are using the correct size and type of 100R6 socketless hose. Check for any debris on the hose end or inside the fitting.

Hose is difficult to push onto the fitting

Slightly warm the end of the hose in warm (not hot) water to make it more pliable. Ensure the hose end is cut cleanly and squarely. Do not force the hose; if it's excessively tight, you may have the wrong size hose or fitting.

Fitting won't screw into the component

Confirm that the thread type (BSP or JIC) and size match the component's port. Ensure the component's threads are clean and undamaged.

Swivel mechanism is stiff

The swivel may require a small amount of appropriate lubricant. Ensure no debris is caught in the swivel mechanism. Avoid overtightening the screw threads, which can bind the swivel.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely easy and fast installation without tools.
  • Provides a reliable, leak-proof seal.
  • Swivel action simplifies hose routing and prevents stress.
  • Cost-effective alternative to crimped or barbed fittings.
  • Durable construction for automotive environments.

Cons

  • Only compatible with socketless hose types (e.g., 100R6).
  • Requires careful hose preparation to ensure proper barb engagement.
  • Steel construction may be heavier than aluminum alternatives.
  • Fixed 45-degree angle may not suit all routing needs.
  • Not suitable for high-pressure or high-vibration applications without additional securing methods.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure you are using the correct size of 100R6 socketless hose that matches the bore size of the fitting (1/2 inch in this case). Push the hose firmly onto the fitting until it reaches the internal barbs. You should feel or hear a slight 'click' or resistance as the hose fully seats. The swivel thread end can then be screwed into your component (e.g., oil filter housing, catch tank) and tightened to the appropriate torque specification for the thread type (BSP or JIC).

Compatibility: This fitting is specifically designed for use with 100R6 socketless hose. It is not compatible with braided hose or other hose types that do not have a smooth, push-on internal diameter suitable for barb engagement. The screw threads are available in BSP and JIC standards; verify your component's thread type before purchase.

Care: Clean the fitting with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the plating. Periodically inspect the connection for any signs of wear or degradation, especially if exposed to harsh chemicals or extreme temperatures.
