#10 x 3/8 MPT 90 Deg Swivel Adapter Black

The FRAGOLA #10 x 3/8 MPT 90 Degree Swivel Adapter in Black is a precision hose fitting engineered for high-pressure hydraulic and fuel system applications. This 90-degree adapter transitions a #10 AN male connection to a 3/8-inch NPT male swivel port, making it essential for custom plumbing layouts where space constraints or installation angles demand directional flexibility. The black anodized aluminum construction resists corrosion while maintaining the lightweight profile critical in performance vehicles, racing platforms, and industrial hydraulic systems.

The 90-degree configuration eliminates sharp bends in hose runs, reducing turbulence and pressure loss while extending hose service life. The swivel design on the NPT side allows installation without twisting the connected hose, a practical advantage when working in tight engine bays or complex manifold layouts. #10 AN fittings (with a 9/16-inch thread diameter) are industry standard in fuel injection systems, turbocharger feed lines, and cooler circuits. The NPT threads provide reliable sealing with appropriate thread sealant, accommodating both metric and imperial plumbing standards found in modified and OEM-equivalent systems.

This fitting suits custom fuel system builders, drag racing teams, marine engine installations, and hydraulic system integrators who need compact directional transitions. Weighing just 0.14 pounds, it adds negligible mass while solving routing challenges that would otherwise require custom fabrication or oversized manifold blocks. The black anodized finish offers moderate corrosion resistance in dry environments; for salt-air or marine duty, stainless steel alternatives may provide superior longevity. Proper installation requires compatible #10 AN hose (typically -10 size) and NPT-compatible sealant or tape for the swivel end.
