I want to make a PCP tether with a 90-degree Foster female fitting so that the hose doesn't protrude forward from my reservoir. I have found one source for a complete hose that looks very good, but it is $100. It is difficult to find the 90-degree fitting in a stainless steel BSPP thread rated at 4500 PSI. This is the best I could source but it isn't rated, you have to email the company for more details.

Any reliably source stainless rated 90-degree fittings for a reasonable price?

@bigbore 

Would this maybe work? Mount it on the air tank foster.

@pluric  If I removed the tall knurled collar and replaced it with a Foster style fitting it would.

This is already exactly what I'm looking for, for the same cost. I looked at AoU's offerings.

I already have some spare fittings and other hoses and was hoping to buy a $10 SS elbow and coble together a tether on the cheap but it is looking like I'll probably just get ATP's complete pre-made hose. I have to confess it looks like a quality, svelte offering. I've seen what looks like ATP's elbow online, betrayed by what looks like manufacturing marks on the side of the fitting but couldn't find a verifiable pressure rating. I don't want to test Internet fittings with my face.

 My hose arrived; looks as expected. It's perfect.

 Oh yeah, a little accessory for it. Can't wait to use this test rig:
