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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this adapter create a reliable seal between flare and ORB fittings?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10AN flare side uses a 37° metal-to-metal cone seat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAN8 ORB side seals with a replaceable NBR O-ring.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo thread sealant required when installed correctly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard AN and ORB port geometries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the material, pressure, and temperature limits?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEVIL 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.
