#12 X 3/4 Hose Barb Fitting Black

The FRAGOLA #12 X 3/4 Hose Barb Fitting in Black is a precision adapter engineered for high-flow hydraulic and fluid transfer systems. This straight-configuration fitting transitions from a 12 AN male port to a 3/4-inch hose barb, making it an essential component in custom fuel systems, brake line assemblies, and coolant circuits where reliable pressure-rated connections are non-negotiable. Constructed from aluminum with black anodized finish, it delivers corrosion resistance and clean aesthetics in demanding automotive, motorsports, and industrial applications.

The 12 AN to 3/4-inch barb configuration is sized for systems running moderate to high flow rates without excess pressure drop. The barbed end accommodates standard 3/4-inch hose with a hose clamp, creating a leak-free mechanical joint that handles thermal cycling and vibration without loosening. Black anodized aluminum resists oxidation in engine bays and fuel tank environments, while keeping weight minimal—critical in competition vehicles where every pound affects performance. The straight design eliminates offset flow turbulence, preserving system efficiency and fluid velocity.

This fitting is ideal for builders and technicians constructing or servicing fuel delivery systems, coolant loops, and brake fluid circuits in race cars, hot rods, restorations, and high-performance street machines. It's a direct replacement or upgrade component for systems that originally used lower-grade fittings or mismatched adapters. Whether you're plumbing a custom fuel tank, integrating a new radiator, or upgrading brake lines, this FRAGOLA adapter provides the stepped-down transition needed when existing hose diameter requires a smaller port connection than what the main system demands.
