Every UP series helm ships with Boss Fittings installed, so this is primarily a replacement or spare part. The adjustable design is one of the key practical advantages of the Uflex UP series helm system: by rotating the fitting, you can direct the hose exit angle to suit your dash layout without needing angled fittings or adapters in most installations. For angled fitting options when the Boss Fitting alone doesn’t provide enough routing flexibility, see the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/uflex-af45-45-adjustable-fitting-216-ultaf45\"\u003eUflex AF45 45° Fitting\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"\/products\/uflex-af90-90-adjustable-fitting-216-ultaf90\"\u003eAF90 90° Fitting\u003c\/a\u003e.
