#16 Male 90 Bent Tube to #16 ORB Fitting

The XRP-XTREME RACING PROD. #16 Male 90 Bent Tube to #16 ORB Fitting (Model 959016) is a precision hydraulic adapter engineered for high-pressure fluid transfer in performance marine engines and racing applications. This 90-degree bent tube fitting delivers reliable flow redirection in tight engine compartments where straight configurations won't fit, eliminating the need for multiple fittings or awkward plumbing workarounds.

Constructed from black anodized aluminum, the fitting combines lightweight strength with corrosion resistance—critical for salt-water environments where standard steel connectors fail. The #16 AN (Army-Navy) male connection on the bent tube side interfaces with #16 ORB (O-Ring Boss) female ports on fuel systems, cooling circuits, and hydraulic lines. The 90-degree bend is factory-formed to precise angles, ensuring proper alignment and eliminating joint stress that hand-bent adapters introduce. Anodized finish provides UV and chemical protection while maintaining electrical conductivity for grounding applications.

This adapter suits serious offshore racers and performance-focused boaters who demand OEM-quality plumbing without the OEM markup. Weekend fishermen upgrading fuel or cooling systems benefit from the compact footprint and durability. XRP fittings are designed for applications where pressure integrity and space constraints matter equally—typical in twin-engine offshore rigs, high-performance ski boats, and competition racing platforms where every cubic inch of engine bay counts.

Sizing: #16 AN/ORB fittings handle -16 hose (1-inch outer diameter), common in fuel systems rated 8–12 GPM at typical marine engine pressures. Verify compatibility with your existing hose ends and port threads before ordering—mixing AN and ORB standards requires proper adapter sequences to avoid leaks.
