The Texas Speed Straight 10ORB to 4AN Male Flare Adapter Fitting threads into a -10 ORB O-ring boss port and provides a -4AN male flare for the hose end. ORB ports are the straight-thread, O-ring sealed ports used on many fuel pumps, regulators, filters, fuel rails and catch cans, and this adapter steps the -10 ORB port down to a -4AN line without adding a second joint. -4AN is a small line size commonly used for gauge feeds, fuel pressure reference and small oil or coolant lines.
Texas Speed machines its adapter fittings from 6061 aluminum and black anodizes them for corrosion resistance, keeping the fitting light and durable. The adapter line is designed to reduce the number of connections in a fuel, oil or coolant system, which saves space in tight areas and lowers the cost of plumbing a build. The fitting is compatible with most fuels, solvents and oils. The ORB side seals with its O-ring against the face of the port, and the -4AN male flare side seals metal to metal against the hose end, so neither end uses thread sealant.

FAQ
What does the Texas Speed straight 10ORB to 4AN male flare adapter do?
It converts a -10 ORB O-ring boss port, the straight-thread O-ring sealed port found on many fuel pumps, regulators, filters and rails, to a -4AN male flare so a -4AN hose end can be attached directly. It is a straight adapter with no bend.
Is this -10 ORB to 4AN adapter compatible with E85 and gasoline?
Yes. Texas Speed states its adapter fittings are compatible with most fuels, solvents and oils, and the black anodized 6061 aluminum body resists corrosion in fuel and oil systems.
Does this ORB adapter need thread sealant?
No. The -10 ORB end seals with an O-ring against the face of the port rather than on the threads, and the -4AN male flare end seals on the flare itself. Both ends are installed without thread sealant or tape.
What is the difference between this straight 10ORB to 4AN adapter and the Texas Speed 90 degree version?
This fitting is a straight, in-line adapter, so the -4AN hose end exits directly in line with the -10 ORB port. Texas Speed also offers 90 degree swivel 10ORB to AN male flare adapters for installations where the hose needs to turn a corner right at the port.
Is this a universal part?
Yes. The Texas Speed straight 10ORB to 4AN male flare adapter is not vehicle specific. It fits any component with a -10 ORB port and mates with any standard -4AN female hose end or adapter.
