This ATCO bead lock alloy straight fitting is engineered for secure connection of automotive air conditioning hoses and low pressure refrigeration lines. Constructed from lightweight corrosion resistant aluminium alloy, the straight No8 design provides a robust sealing surface for No8 size hoses and barb fittings. The bead lock profile helps prevent hose push off under pressure while maintaining a compact footprint for installation in tight engine bay locations. It is ideal for workshop replacements, custom installs and retrofit work where reliable clampless performance or reinforced clamp points are required.
