EVIL ENERGY 10AN to AN8 ORB Adapter (2 pcs) — 6061-T6 Aluminum, NBR O-Ring, 1500 PSI

EVIL ENERGY 10AN flare to AN8 ORB male O-ring adapter (2 pcs) converts a 10AN 37° flare connection to an AN8 ORB O-ring port for secure, leak-resistant fluid hookups.

If you need to join a 10AN male flare line to an AN8 ORB female port—common in fuel, oil, and coolant systems—this EVIL ENERGY adapter offers a compact, durable solution. Constructed from 6061-T6 aluminum with an NBR O-ring, the fitting combines a metal 37° flare seal on one end with an O-ring-sealed ORB seat on the other. Its rated working pressure and broad temperature tolerance make it suitable for many automotive and performance plumbing tasks.

How does this adapter create a reliable seal between flare and ORB fittings?

The adapter uses two complementary sealing methods: a 37° flare seating on the AN side and an O-ring that compresses into the ORB port. That dual approach eliminates the need for extra sealants and helps prevent leaks under vibration and thermal cycling.

• 10AN flare side uses a 37° metal-to-metal cone seat.
• AN8 ORB side seals with a replaceable NBR O-ring.
• No thread sealant required when installed correctly.
• Compatible with standard AN and ORB port geometries.

What are the material, pressure, and temperature limits?

EVIL ENERGY built the adapter from 6061‑T6 aluminum for a strong, lightweight body and fitted it with an NBR rubber O-ring for reliable sealing. It is engineered for high-pressure fluid systems and a wide temperature range, matching common automotive and racing environments.

• Body: aluminum alloy 6061‑T6 for corrosion resistance and strength.
• O-ring: NBR rubber (nitrile) for fuel and oil compatibility.
• Working pressure: rated to 1500 PSI.
• Temperature range: adapter body -65°F to 252°F; O-ring -4°F to 392°F.

Which applications and systems is this adapter suitable for?

Designed for fluid-system conversions, the adapter works well in fuel rails, oil coolers, pumps, pressure regulators, and filters where an AN flare hose must mate with an ORB port. It’s a practical choice for performance engines, custom plumbing, and maintenance tasks where conversion fittings are required.

• Fuel delivery: rails, pumps, regulators, and filters.
• Oil systems: coolers and remote filters.
• Custom plumbing on racecars, street cars, and industrial machinery.
• Works with standard AN and ORB component ports.

How do I install and maintain the adapter for long service life?

Installation is straightforward: tighten the 10AN flare nut to its mating flare seat and thread the ORB male into the female port until the O-ring compresses. Follow torque specs for your equipment, inspect the O-ring before installation, and replace it if worn to maintain a leak-free connection.

• Hand-start threads, then tighten to manufacturer torque recommendations.
• Inspect and lightly lubricate NBR O-ring with compatible lubricant before fitting.
• Replace O-ring if cracked, flattened, or hardened.
• Periodically check for leaks after initial run-in and following heat cycles.

Who is this for: mechanics, fabricators, and enthusiasts who need a dependable, compact adapter to join a 10AN flare hose to an AN8 ORB female port will find this EVIL ENERGY two‑pack useful. It’s aimed at users working on fuel, oil, or performance plumbing who want a robust aluminum fitting with an O-ring seal that tolerates high pressure and a wide temperature range. Buy it when you need a conversion fitting that’s quick to install, serviceable, and built for demanding vehicular and equipment environments.
