trying to replace an old aeroquip fitting, how do i tell if this 401-8B is the right one?
Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 26, 2025, 1:48 PM
Match up the key identifiers: it is a straight, three-piece reusable brass fitting for 1 wire braid hose in the reduced bore style, built for -08 hose size. The swivel end is a 3/4-16 female SAE 45 degree flare, and it calls for a mandrel during assembly.

fitting says reduced bore, does that mean flow's gonna be restricted compared to a full bore -08 setup?
Answer by: Customer Support on May 24, 2025, 7:42 AM
Reduced bore fittings do pass slightly less flow than full bore equivalents at the same hose size. For most standard hydraulic circuits running -08 hose, the difference won't cause problems, but if you're working a system that's already tight on pressure drop or running high flow rates continuously, it's worth accounting for in your line sizing. The tradeoff is a more compact, lighter fitting that still handles the job in the vast majority of service conditions.

trying to match up parts here, is this the straight reusable fitting for -08 hose with a 3/4-16 female SAE 45 flare swivel?
Answer by: Customer Support on May 8, 2025, 1:55 PM
Youve got the right idea. SKU 401-8B is a straight, three-piece reusable brass fitting made for -08 hose, and the end is a 3/4-16 Female SAE 45 degree flare swivel.
Question by: Rick K on Jan 25, 2026, 8:32 AM
