10AN Dry Break Quick Release Adapter Black

The 10AN Dry Break Quick Release Adapter Black from REDHORSE PERFORMANCE is engineered for fluid systems requiring fast, leak-free disconnection without spillage. Designed for automotive cooling, fuel, and hydraulic applications, this quick-release coupling allows technicians and enthusiasts to service high-performance engines, custom cooling loops, and fuel system modifications with minimal fluid loss. The dry break design is essential in motorsports, racing, and precision fluid management where spill containment and rapid assembly/disassembly are critical operational requirements.

Constructed from aluminum and finished in black anodize, the 10AN Dry Break Quick Release Adapter features both halves configured to 10 AN male threads, enabling bidirectional connection compatibility. The dry break mechanism contains internal seals that shut off flow instantaneously upon separation, preventing drips and maintaining system cleanliness—a critical advantage over conventional barbed or push-lock fittings. The anodized aluminum construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in high-temperature and high-pressure environments typical of race engines and modified fuel systems, while the compact 5.55 x 1.75 x 5.9-inch footprint allows installation in tight engine bays and aftermarket plumbing configurations.

This adapter is ideal for builders constructing custom fuel injection systems, upgrading cooling circuits on turbocharged engines, or assembling modular hydraulic platforms. The kit format accommodates both male-to-male and male-to-female connection scenarios, making it versatile across fuel rails, intercooler lines, and transmission cooler setups. Installation requires standard AN -10 hose fittings (0.625-inch -10 sizing), and the anodized finish ensures long-term reliability without additional maintenance.
