3/8in Duck Foot Pickup 6an

The ATL Fuel Cells 3/8in Duck Foot Pickup 6AN (model TF239) is a fuel pickup assembly engineered for high-performance fuel system installations where reliable fuel draw is critical across varying vehicle attitudes and acceleration conditions. The duck foot design—featuring a multi-port inlet configuration—maximizes fuel availability by drawing from multiple points within the fuel tank, preventing fuel starvation during aggressive cornering, hard acceleration, or off-road driving scenarios where fuel slosh would otherwise expose the pickup tube to air.

This assembly includes 22 inches of pickup hose and terminates in a 6 AN female fitting, a industry-standard AN (Army-Navy) connector size that ensures compatibility with common fuel line adapters and fuel system components in custom and racing fuel systems. The lightweight construction—0.38 lbs—minimizes parasitic weight while the compact overall dimensions (6.45 x 3.3 x 8.25 inches) allow integration into space-constrained fuel tank environments. ATL Fuel Cells' reputation in circle-track racing and high-performance motorsports reflects decades of engineering fuel cells and associated components that must function reliably at sustained high RPM and under extreme G-forces.

This pickup is designed for builders installing custom fuel systems in race vehicles, off-road trucks, and performance street cars where factory fuel systems cannot meet fuel delivery demands. The duck foot configuration solves a real problem: standard straight-tube pickups expose themselves to air when fuel level drops or during aggressive vehicle dynamics, causing lean-out conditions or fuel starvation. Users integrating a high-flow fuel system should verify that the 6 AN outlet sizing matches their fuel pump inlet and downstream fuel line routing before installation.
