#16 90 Degree Hose End Push Lock

The Triple X Race Components #16 90 Degree Hose End Push Lock (Model HF-19016BLK) is a precision-engineered hydraulic and fuel line fitting designed for high-performance racing and specialty automotive applications. This 90-degree hose end fitting connects 16 AN barbed hose to 16 AN female ports, making it essential for fuel systems, coolant lines, and hydraulic brake circuits in race engines, drag racing platforms, and high-horsepower street builds where reliability under extreme pressure is non-negotiable.

Constructed from aluminum with black anodized finish, this fitting delivers corrosion resistance and a professional appearance while maintaining lightweight characteristics critical in racing environments. The push-lock design eliminates the need for thread sealant tape or liquid thread locker, allowing quick installation and disconnect during system modifications or maintenance. The 90-degree angle orientation accommodates tight engine bay layouts where straight fittings would create clearance conflicts with headers, intake manifolds, or intake runners. AN16 sizing (1-inch hose diameter) is standard in high-flow fuel systems and coolant circuits feeding big-displacement or turbocharged engines.

This fitting is ideal for engine builders, race teams, and experienced enthusiasts fabricating custom fuel and cooling systems for bracket racing, road racing, and performance street applications. Triple X Race Components specializes in AN plumbing components and hose ends engineered to withstand the thermal cycling and pressure spikes common in race fuel systems running nitrous, forced induction, or alcohol blends. The barbed-to-female connection ensures secure hose engagement and is compatible with reinforced nylon or rubber hose rated for fuel and hydraulic service.

AN hose fittings are industry standard in racing and performance automotive circles, offering superior pressure ratings and compatibility with braided stainless steel hose assemblies. This single 90-degree adapter is sold individually, allowing builders to purchase only the specific angles and quantities required for their plumbing layout, reducing waste and cost versus buying pre-assembled hose kits.
