12AN Push Lock Hose End s- Blue 90

The 12AN Push Lock Hose End in Blue 90 is a precision-engineered fluid coupling component designed for high-performance automotive systems where reliable, leak-free connections are non-negotiable. Whether you're building a custom fuel system, upgrading your cooling circuit, or fabricating hydraulic lines for a supercharged engine, this REDHORSE PERFORMANCE fitting provides the secure, repeatable engagement that separates professional-grade installations from amateur work. Push lock technology eliminates the guesswork of traditional threaded or barbed connections, making it the standard choice for serious fabricators and engine builders.

This 90-degree hose end accommodates 12AN hose—a standard -12 size common in fuel, coolant, and power steering systems—and uses REDHORSE's proven push lock mechanism to create a dependable mechanical grip that resists vibration-induced loosening without over-torquing fittings. The 90-degree angle is critical for tight engine bays and custom layouts where straight runs aren't practical; it redirects flow at a right angle while maintaining full flow capacity. The anodized blue finish not only identifies the line function at a glance (a common color-coding practice in performance shops) but also provides corrosion resistance under underhood heat and humidity, extending service life in demanding conditions.

Mechanics and fabricators working on fuel-injected engines, turbocharged builds, and custom cooling systems will find this fitting indispensable for systems operating at elevated pressures and temperatures. The lightweight design (0.22 lbs) keeps rotational mass minimal—important in engine bay routing—while the compact footprint (3.8 x 1.5 x 5.25 inches) fits tight spaces where larger bulkhead fittings won't clear. Installation requires only pushing the hose firmly onto the fitting until it seats; disconnection is equally straightforward with a simple release collar, making this hose end ideal for motorsports, street rods, and vehicles with frequent service or modification cycles.
