Brand: Setrab Oil Coolers
This 45 degree aluminum hose fitting from Setrab allows you to use standard AN fittings with our Textile-Reinforced Black Rubber Hose. One end of the fitting is a standard female 8AN (3/4-16, 37° flare) swivel fitting, and the other end has a secure Pushlock-type barb for 1/2" ID rubber hose.
Installation Tips:
- Use Oetiker Clamps to secure the hose in place for pressurized applications.
- For maximum security, use 2 Oetiker clamps on each hose end. Rotate one clamp so the ears are clocked 90 degrees to the ears on the second clamp.
Installation Method 1 (The traditional way):
1. Clamp the hose end in a vise with soft jaws.
2. Lube the barb with clean motor oil.
3. Slide the Oetiker clamp(s) onto the hose.
4. Warm the end of the hose in boiling water for 5 to 10 seconds. This makes the rubber more pliable.
5. Slide the hose over the barbed fitting with a twisting motion.
6. Install Oetiker clamp(s).
Installation Method 2 (the modern way):
1. Use our Koul Tools EZ-ON Hose Press (Part No. 3330-001, sold separately).
