So this thing's got a 45 degree angle, right? What's that good for, exactly?

This angled design really shines when you're trying to make connections in tight spots or need to avoid putting too much strain on your hoses and fittings. It helps things line up better.

Who makes this elbow fitting, and is it a decent brand for shop use?

Brennan Industries put this one together, and they're a well-regarded name in hydraulic and industrial fittings. The 4603-12-12-NWO is built for demanding environments, so it holds up in real working conditions without a lot of fuss.

got a tight spot on a hydraulic line, does this 45 degree elbow help take the strain off the hose?

With the 45 degree angled body, it helps line things up when you cannot come straight in, which can reduce stress on the connected assembly compared to forcing a sharper bend.
