#16 Straight Swivel Hose End

The #16 Straight Swivel Hose End by Triple X Race Components is a precision-engineered fitting designed for high-performance fuel, oil, and coolant systems in racing and modified vehicles. Whether you're building a custom engine bay, upgrading a fuel delivery system, or installing remote gauges on a dedicated track car, this straight swivel adapter provides the flexible routing and secure connection that serious fabricators and mechanics demand. The 16 AN size (1-inch nominal diameter) handles substantial flow rates typical of supercharged, turbocharged, and naturally aspirated performance builds.

Machined from aluminum and finished in black anodize, this fitting connects 16 AN hose directly to 16 AN female ports with a straight configuration and 360-degree swivel capability. The swivel design eliminates stress on hose assemblies during installation and thermal cycles, reducing kink points and extending hose life under pressure spikes. Black anodizing provides corrosion resistance in engine bays exposed to heat, fuel vapor, and moisture, while the aluminum construction keeps weight minimal—critical for chassis tuning and fuel system efficiency in competition vehicles.

This fitting suits fuel system upgrades, auxiliary oil cooling lines, intercooler plumbing, and remote-mounted component installations on race cars, drag racing platforms, and street performance builds. The straight swivel end accommodates tight engine bay layouts and complex bend configurations without requiring multiple adapters. Mechanics working with braided stainless steel hose assemblies will appreciate the robust design and the flexibility it offers when routing lines around headers, turbochargers, and other aftermarket components where standard rigid fittings fall short.
