3. How to measure the orientation of the end fittings

 

If your hose assembly has elbows (e.g. 45° or 90°) end fittings at both ends, you will need to specify the orientation of the end fittings. Hold the assembly with the fitting nearest to you pointing down and measure the angle to the other fitting in an anticlockwise direction as indicated in the following diagram.
