#16 150-Deg Crimp Hose Fitting

The #16 150-Deg Crimp Hose Fitting from Fragola is a precision-engineered component designed for high-performance fuel, oil, and coolant line applications in street rods, race cars, and custom engine builds. This fitting bridges the gap between rigid hard lines and flexible hose runs, allowing clean directional changes without kinks or flow restriction. Whether you're fabricating a fuel system for a carbureted engine swap, upgrading to braided stainless steel lines, or routing hose around engine bay obstacles, a 150-degree crimp fitting gives you the angular freedom that 90-degree alternatives cannot match.

Fragola's crimp fittings use a cold-formed aluminum construction that delivers reliable pressure retention while remaining lightweight—critical in performance applications where every ounce counts. The 150-degree angle is measured from the centerline of the inlet to the outlet, providing a gradual, low-stress bend that minimizes turbulence and pressure drop compared to sharper angles. The crimp design (as opposed to threaded or compression) creates a permanent, leak-free seal when properly installed with compatible hose and a quality crimper, eliminating the risk of vibration-induced loosening found in reusable fittings.

Mechanics and engine builders favor Fragola fittings for fuel injection systems, EFI fuel rails, and custom cooling circuits where space constraints demand off-angle routing. The #16 sizing accommodates standard AN-style hose and works seamlessly in both new builds and retrofits. This fitting is an essential component for anyone looking to enhance their vehicle's performance and reliability.
