Question by: Bobby P on Jul 30, 2025, 4:21 PM
does the 08E-668 hold up decent in environments where rust and corrosion are a regular concern, or is it gonna need extra protection on top of what it already has?
Answer by: Customer Support on Aug 1, 2025, 12:37 PM
Carbon steel fittings can be vulnerable on their own, but this one comes with Dura-Kote plating applied from the factory specifically to fight corrosion. That coating is what sets it apart from bare steel options and helps it hold up in conditions where moisture and contaminants are a real issue. No additional treatment should be necessary for standard industrial use.
Question by: Wes S on Sep 20, 2025, 3:56 PM
got a hose setup that needs a -8 fitting, is this one actually the 90 degree JIC swivel with a female end?
Answer by: Customer Support on Sep 22, 2025, 1:36 PM
For a -8 hose dash application, 08E-668 is a 90 degree swivel elbow with a female JIC 37 degree end. It also calls out a 0.75 hex size and a 1.0900 drop dimension, which helps when you are checking clearances.
