Default Nitrous fitting question! need help asap!

I have a 6AN line that I am "reducing" to a 4 an male fitting on my NX solenoid. My question is this: the reducer I have will work, but it is a swivel fitting....

Can a swivel fitting hold 1000 psi? This is an aeroquip peice.


Thanks,
Conrad

swivel fittings will hold 1000# and alot more. We use them in hydraulic systems at work at over 3000PSI. I have swivel fittings on my cars system and never had a problem. You can always mix some dishsoap and water and spray it on the outside of the fitting with it pressured up to check for leaks. Its a good idea to do that to the whole system anyway. If it leaks you will see the soap foaming.
