Machined from aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum and finished with a protective anodized coating, the fitting balances strength, corrosion resistance, and light weight for automotive, marine, and industrial fluid systems. It's compatible with a wide range of fluids, including gasoline and alcohol blends, and is optimized for spaces where engine-bay clearance is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the swivel head make installation easier?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 360° full-swivel head lets you position hose routing without twisting or stressing the hose or fitting.
