Upgrade your custom fluid-system build with the FLEECE FPE-34805-A – a precision-machined adapter designed to seamlessly convert a -10 AN line to a 7/8″-14 inverted-flare fitting in a sleek, black anodized finish. Whether you’re working on fuel, oil, or hydraulic plumbing, this straight male fitting delivers a tight, secure and leak-free connection thanks to the included O-ring.
Key Features:
- Converts from −10 AN to 7/8″-14 inverted flare.
- Straight male design for compact installations and minimal bend radius.
- Black anodized 6061 aluminum construction for corrosion resistance and durability.
- Includes O-ring for improved sealing and leak prevention.
- Universal fit for many applications: fuel, oil, hydraulic lines, fabrication and plumbing.
Fitment & Usage Notes
This adapter is universal in application. It does not refer to a specific vehicle model, but is ideal for high-performance systems, custom plumbing, and retrofit builds where you need to interface -10 AN hose or fitting with a factory 7/8″-14 inverted flare port.

Why Choose This Adapter?
In high-performance builds every fitting matters. The Fleece adapter is engineered with the attention to detail Fleece Performance Engineering is known for — from the black anodized finish to the included O-ring seal. When you swap between AN and inverted flare systems you want reliability and durability — this adapter delivers that with minimal fuss and maximum quality.
Installation Tips
- Ensure the O-ring is properly seated and not damaged before installation.
- Hand-tighten and then torque to appropriate specification for your material and fluid type — avoid over-torqueing which can damage the flare or O-ring.
- Inspect mating surfaces and fitting alignment to prevent cross-threading or misalignment which can lead to leaks.
- Use compatible hose and fittings rated for your fluid system (fuel, oil, hydraulic) and pressure rating.

FAQ
Can I use the FPE-34805-A adapter for both fuel and oil lines?
Yes — this adapter is constructed of anodized 6061 aluminum and includes an O-ring, making it suitable for performance fuel systems, oil plumbing and hydraulic setups — as long as the system pressures and compatibility are appropriate for aluminum hardware.
What exactly does “-10 AN to 7/8″-14 inverted flare” mean for this fitting?
“-10 AN” refers to the AN-hose size (in this case −10) and “7/8″-14” refers to the thread size of the inverted-flare port. This adapter allows a −10 AN hose or fitting to mate to a 7/8″-14 inverted-flare female port (straight male style) without needing additional adapters or modifications.
Do I need any extra seals or O-rings when installing this adapter?
No — the FPE-34805-A comes complete with the required O-ring for sealing on installation. However, you should inspect the O-ring for damage or deformation before tightening and apply appropriate lubricant or sealant if your system requires it.
Is the black anodized finish purely cosmetic or does it provide function?
The black anodized finish enhances corrosion resistance and gives a durable surface for the aluminum body. While appearance is improved, the finish also protects the fitting from wear, environmental exposure and abrasion.
What torque specification should I use when installing this adapter?
Torque will depend on the mating material and system pressure; follow manufacturer’s guidelines for aluminum fittings. Always seat the O-ring properly first, hand-tighten, then use a calibrated torque wrench to finish to spec for your system — not over-tightening to avoid flare or thread damage.
