12an ORB Male 45-Deg Crimp Hose End

The 12 AN ORB Male 45-Degree Crimp Hose End by FRAGOLA is a precision-engineered fitting designed for high-performance fuel, coolant, and hydraulic systems in modified vehicles and racing applications. Built for enthusiasts who demand reliability under extreme conditions, this hose end eliminates leaks and ensures consistent pressure delivery in turbocharged engines, supercharged platforms, and custom cooling setups. Whether you're upgrading a street rod, motorsports competitor, or high-horsepower daily driver, this fitting serves as the backbone of a dependable fluid delivery system.

Crafted from aluminum and finished in black anodize, the 12 AN ORB Male 45-Degree Crimp Hose End features a sport crimp design that securely grips -12 AN hose without requiring special tools or secondary clamps. The 45-degree orientation reduces bend radius and saves valuable underhood space in tight engine bays, while the O-ring seal (ORB) design provides a metal-to-metal interface that resists vibration-induced loosening. FRAGOLA's crimped construction is superior to push-lock fittings in high-vibration environments, making this fitting the preferred choice for supercharged and turbocharged applications where fluid pressure and temperature fluctuations demand absolute security.

This fitting is ideal for mechanics and fabricators building custom fuel systems, intercooler plumbing, and transmission cooler lines on late-model muscle cars, LS-swapped platforms, and dedicated race cars. The -12 AN male connection pairs seamlessly with standard AN hose and allows integration into existing fuel rails, thermostatic bypass blocks, and remote oil filter housings. Installation requires proper crimping equipment and compatible -12 AN hose; verify all system pressures and flow rates before operation to ensure the fitting is rated for your specific application. For street and strip use, this FRAGOLA hose end delivers the dependability and clean aesthetics that separate a professional build from amateur shortcuts.
