Uflex AF45 45° Adjustable Fitting – ORB #6 to 3/8" Compression, UP Series Helms
The Uflex AF45 is a 45° adjustable fitting designed for the rear port of Uflex UP series hydraulic steering helms. The 45° angle allows hose routing to be directed away from the helm at a controlled angle, reducing stress on hose connections and simplifying routing in tight helm station spaces where a straight fitting would create a sharp bend or clearance issue.

Parts Desk Insights
Best Use Case: The AF45 is the right fitting when your helm station layout makes straight hose routing difficult — particularly in center consoles and walkarounds where the helm is mounted close to the dash panel and a straight fitting would force the hose into a tight bend immediately behind the helm. The 45° angle directs the hose away from the helm at a controlled angle, reducing stress on the hose and fitting over time. It’s also useful when routing hoses around other dash components where a straight fitting would create a clearance conflict. Always verify the thread specs on your helm port before ordering — the helm side (9/16"-18 UNF 2A) and hose side (9/16"-24 UNEF 2A) are different thread standards and must match your existing fittings and hose ends exactly.
