45 Male Elbow #6 To 1/4 Npt Steel Fitting

The AEROQUIP 45 Male Elbow #6 to 1/4 NPT Steel Fitting (FCM2586) is an essential hydraulic and pneumatic connector for serious automotive builders and mechanics managing fluid or air system modifications. This compact elbow adapter bridges two different port sizes—a #6 SAE port and a 1/4 inch NPT thread—making it indispensable for custom fuel lines, brake systems, air suspension builds, and turbo boost control setups where space is tight and reliability cannot be compromised.

Constructed from durable steel and manufactured by AEROQUIP—a trusted name in OEM and aftermarket fluid conveyance systems—this 45-degree elbow reduces vibration-induced stress on connections compared to multiple 90-degree adapters. The 45-degree angle geometry allows smoother fluid flow and easier hose routing in congested engine compartments, while the male configuration on both ends (one #6 SAE, one 1/4 NPT) accommodates standard hose crimps and NPT threaded ports.

At a verified weight of 0.2 lbs and compact dimensions (2.3 x 1.1 x 3.7 inches), it adds negligible weight while maintaining the pressure ratings required for fuel, brake fluid, or pneumatic applications up to typical system operating pressures. Mechanics and fabricators working on engine swaps, forced induction upgrades, or custom cooling and fuel system builds rely on AEROQUIP fittings for their reliability and performance.
