Using them on the external filter and cooler for the oiling system of my 2332 cc Speedster engine. Push on hose would work, but proper hydraulic fittings are proper looking and can be disassembled for ease of engine removal.

Problem solved as I finally discovered that 37.5 degree AN fittings are called JM fittings in Thailand

Your right to use the stainless hose and fittings, fit and forget and easy disconnection of stuff. Very expensive in UK, l know as l used loads of it on external oil stuff and fuel lines on my ride.

Think our member hakku could be of help with you question, worth a PM. :)

These 37.5 degree fiitings you refer to are JIC ( 37 degree) ?

Male nipple / female swivel nut ? The size 8, is half inch I believe.

I have ordered 4.5 kilometres of hose for our Tunnel Boring Machines in Singapore.

Have a look at this pdf, but its quite a large download at 2.4mb.

This is all high pressure hydraulics though, perhaps not what you're after for use on the low pressure and anodised ,compression type fitting.

Or go to this page.

All this is made in Malaysia, some of their hose is from Europe.

The systems I have run at up to 350 bar.

-10 is around half inch ID but beware that some fittings inside ID is well below hose ID. :huh:

-6 is 3/8" and -4 is 1/4", -10 is 5/8" , -12 is 3/4", -16 is 1". As far as I know.

Its a bit mad the imperial reference to size's, being from Europe I,m more used to the nominal i.d. size of hoses in mm.

When constructing my oil system using Aeroquip or Earls stuff, l went to -12 cos it was a tad over half inch and some fitting internal diameters on fittings were under hose size. No way did l have 3/4 inch, anywhere with -12..

My link further up was for superior speedflow stuff, my brother inlaw works there, has been known to do some awesome deals.

In the AN system the - number is the size in 1/16 of an inch

For example the -8 I want is 8/16 or 1/2 inch

-8 hose is 7/16, -10 is 9/16, -12 is 11/16 inside diameters as can be read on Speedflows site. These are the same inside ID's that l found on my plumbing years ago. Hose ends can have a smaller ID than the hose, especially on some manufacturers bends, check them out first. I actually drilled out some low pressure ends to maintain a constant ID.

Sorry mistake in my earlier quote, l used -10 cos it was a tad over half inch.:)

Look at my Avatar, carb fuel lines. -10 to Y block then twin -8 to carb.

Oooooops, sorry correction, fuel line was -8 to twin -6 carb, -6 to NOS solenoid. :)
