Frequently asked questions
Will it work with a bubble flare port?
No. SAE inverted flare uses a 45° double flare. ISO bubble flare ports, common on European cars, have a different seat and will not seal with this fitting.
Is the AN flare the same as the inverted flare?
No. AN/JIC uses a 37° flare and inverted flare uses 45°. The two do not seal against each other, which is why this adapter is needed.
Is it E85 compatible?
Yes. It is made from 6061-T6 aluminum and black anodized, and works with gasoline and E85.
