#6 90 Deg Twist-Lok Hose End

The #6 90 Deg Twist-Lok Hose End by RUSSELL is a critical fitting component for custom fuel, oil, and coolant line installations in performance and modified vehicles. This 90-degree adapter bridges high-pressure hose assemblies to female AN ports, making it indispensable for engine bay customization, fuel system upgrades, and competition builds where space constraints demand compact, reliable connections. Whether you're building a fuel-injected swap, upgrading cooling systems, or retrofitting brake lines, this twist-lock design eliminates the need for additional wrenches during assembly and disassembly.

Constructed from anodized aluminum, the #6 90 Deg Twist-Lok Hose End features a durable blue anodized finish that resists corrosion and blends seamlessly into modern engine bays. The twist-lock mechanism allows tool-free connection and disconnection, reducing installation time and preventing cross-threading—a critical advantage in tight engine compartments where traditional swaged fittings require full wrench access. The 6 AN hose barb inlet mates with standard braided stainless hose, while the 6 AN female port accepts corresponding male fittings, creating a sealed, repeatable interface rated for demanding pressure cycles in street, race, and off-road applications.

This fitting is essential for enthusiasts and professional technicians upgrading fuel delivery, thermostat housings, transmission coolers, and auxiliary cooling circuits on both naturally aspirated and forced-induction engines. The 90-degree orientation is particularly valuable in tight lateral spaces—around shock towers, firewall-mounted components, and custom manifold installations. The compact footprint (2.65 x 1.65 x 4.95 inches) and lightweight design (0.07 lbs) make it ideal for weight-conscious builds. Pair this hose end with matching AN hose and male fittings for a professional-grade, leak-free system that handles sustained pressure without degradation or fitting creep.
