Another New Part NX is offering to our customers. The "Wingman" fits -4,-6,-8 an hose fittings. made from a composite material I could not break these during a stress test. Ok venting my stress on to this part! I was tring to over tighten it to the point of breaking. The Wingman won the battle, but I still have a large wrench 
, I am going to try to see what gives up first. The fitting, the bunt that screws onto the fitting or the Wingman itself.
So far the I was able to tighten the Wingman to the point of contouring the (flat) flare angle on the straight fitting i was using during tests.
retial is 14.00 but yall can pick them up for under 10.00.

And I like breaking things to
On to the -6 and -8 parts. Now wheres that wrench.?We did this same type of test on the, DF5, MAF's, Plates, stand bottle valve, Lightning solenoids. We want to know where the part breaks.
Did you know the DF5 failded a hydo test at 9650lbs of pressure. Now I say failed but that is 3 times the burst disc, and 2 times the bottles explosion point. Just testing.
Noids, screwed the fitting all the way in with out pulling the threads, that one was fun, lots of scretching going on from the fitting yet all is well.

Ricky, nice looking piece. If our track was going to remain open I'd get one or two, but with the pending closing, no real need....well then again, might get a couple anyway. I can throw them in during install's I do, kind of like a T Shirt, but much better!
Robert, you funnyfucker!
