Earl's -24 90 Degree Auto-Fit

The Auto-Fit nipple is barbed rather than threaded. In assembly the nipple is pushed into rather than threaded into the hose. The hose is compressed between the nipple and the socket, sealing at the barbs. Hose retention is positive (the same as SWIVEL-SEAL) and there is no spiral path for possible leaks. Auto-Fit hose ends are available in aluminum, steel and stainless steel. The lightweight aluminum hose ends are suitable for most applications. Steel Auto-Fit hose ends should be used when increased physical strength and/or resistance to alcohol fuels is required. The stainless units offer maximum corrosion and temperature resistance and are recommended for marine or chemical use and for exotic fuels.
