#6 90 Deg Hose Fitting P/C Crimp-On

The #6 90 Deg Hose Fitting P/C Crimp-On from RUSSELL is a precision hydraulic line connector designed for high-performance automotive cooling, fuel, and brake system applications. Built for enthusiasts and professional mechanics who demand reliability in custom vehicle builds, this 6 AN fitting redirects hose flow at a 90-degree angle while maintaining full system integrity. Whether you're fabricating a custom cooling loop, upgrading fuel lines on a modified engine, or routing brake lines in a tight engine bay, this crimp-on fitting eliminates the need for adapters and reduces potential leak points.

Constructed from aluminum with black and silver anodized finish, the #6 90 Deg Hose Fitting P/C Crimp-On delivers corrosion resistance and durability in harsh underhood environments. The crimp-on design—as opposed to reusable push-to-connect—creates a permanent, vibration-resistant seal that won't loosen under pressure cycling or heavy acceleration. The 90-degree angle configuration allows tight-radius routing behind engine blocks and along firewall-mounted components, maximizing space efficiency in cramped engine compartments. At 6 AN (approximately 3/8-inch nominal), this fitting handles substantial flow rates suitable for turbocharged and supercharged cooling systems, power steering upgrades, and fuel delivery on carbureted and EFI platforms.

This fitting pairs with standard 6 AN braided stainless or rubber hose and accepts 6 AN female connections, making it ideal for both stock-replacement work and full custom fabrication. Installation requires a proper crimp tool—essential to prevent leaks—and is best suited for builders with experience in hydraulic line assembly or those working with a qualified machine shop. The lightweight design (0.09 lbs) adds negligible weight to your system, and the compact footprint (2.6 x 1.7 x 4.8 in) fits into confined spaces where traditional 45-degree or straight fittings fall short. For street machines, race cars, off-road trucks, and restorations requiring precision plumbing, this RUSSELL fitting delivers the directional control and reliability that separates professional builds from amateur work.
