You should change the port number to 80 in tomcat config. Port 80 is the only port which browsers hide because it's the default port.

Navigate to [your-tomcat-root]/conf/server.xml and then change

<Connector connectionTimeout="20000" port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" redirectPort="8443"/>

to

<Connector connectionTimeout="20000" port="80" protocol="HTTP/1.1" redirectPort="8443"/>
