12AN 45 Degree PTFE Reusable Hose End Black

The 12AN 45 Degree PTFE Reusable Hose End Black from REDHORSE PERFORMANCE is a precision-engineered hydraulic fitting designed for high-performance fuel, oil, and coolant delivery systems in motorsports, racing, and custom automotive applications. This swivel-style hose end accommodates the demanding requirements of professionals and enthusiasts who need reliable, leak-free connections under extreme pressure and temperature conditions. The 45-degree angle orientation allows for efficient plumbing layouts in tight engine bays and complex fuel rail configurations where space and routing clearance are critical constraints.

Constructed from anodized aluminum, this fitting delivers exceptional durability while maintaining a lightweight profile—critical for weight-sensitive racing platforms. The PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) internal sealing surfaces provide superior chemical resistance and compatibility with modern ethanol-blended fuels, synthetic oils, and aggressive coolant formulations. The swivel design accommodates hose movement and vibration, reducing stress concentration at connection points and extending system longevity. At 12 AN size, this fitting handles the flow demands of turbocharged and supercharged engines while maintaining safe pressure ratings across the full operating envelope.

This hose end is ideal for fabricators, engine builders, and performance shops constructing custom fuel systems, cooling circuits, and hydraulic lines where OEM routing cannot accommodate performance modifications. The reusable design allows for field adjustment and reconfiguration without replacement of the fitting body, reducing long-term system costs. Installation requires standard hose-end assembly practices with proper AN-spec hose crimping equipment. The black anodized finish resists corrosion in underhood environments while maintaining professional appearance in engine bay displays. Compatibility extends across all 12 AN female ports on fuel rails, remote reservoirs, manifolds, and adapters common to race-prepared and street-performance powerplants.
