16AN Crimp Style Hose End Black 120

The 16AN Crimp Style Hose End Black 120 from REDHORSE PERFORMANCE (MPN: 7120-16-2) is a precision-engineered hydraulic hose fitting designed for high-performance automotive fuel, coolant, and transmission fluid systems. This 120-degree angled hose end serves as the critical connection point between your custom fuel rails, intercooler systems, or transmission coolers and braided stainless steel hoses. Whether you're building a turbocharged engine bay, upgrading to external oil coolers, or fabricating a custom fuel system for a race car or modified street machine, this fitting delivers the secure, leak-free connection that professional mechanics and enthusiasts demand.

Machined from aluminum and finished in black anodize for corrosion resistance and a professional appearance, the 16AN Crimp Style Hose End features a 120-degree design that allows tight routing around engine bays with complex layouts. The crimp-style construction means this fitting uses a reusable or disposable hose crimper to securely attach to -16 AN braided hose, ensuring reliable pressure retention under demanding conditions—whether you're running boost pressure, high fuel flow rates, or engine bay temperatures exceeding 200°F. The 16 AN to 16 AN female port configuration provides a direct interface with other metric performance fittings, eliminating the need for bulky adapters. At just 0.42 lbs, this compact fitting won't add unnecessary weight to your system while maintaining full structural integrity under extreme PSI loads.

This hose end benefits mechanics and fabricators working on fuel system upgrades, turbo plumbing, intercooler installation, or transmission cooler kits on street performance cars, race vehicles, and modified trucks. The 120-degree angle is especially valuable in tight engine compartments where 90-degree or straight fittings would require excessive tubing runs or prevent sensor access. Installation requires a professional-grade hose crimper and familiarity with AN hose sizing; proper crimping is essential to prevent leaks and system failure. Verify your hose diameter matches -16 AN specification (1-inch) before ordering to ensure proper fit with your braided lines and connected components.
