The Vintage Air -6 90 Degree Fitting is a beadlock-style hose end designed for automotive air conditioning systems. This 90-degree fitting connects -6 AN hose to -6 AN female O-ring ports, making it a direct solution for routing AC refrigerant lines in custom and classic vehicle builds. Vintage Air has built a reputation as the originator of performance automotive air conditioning, and this fitting reflects that heritage with precise manufacturing tolerances. Whether you're building a full custom AC system or replacing a damaged line end, this fitting delivers the secure connection your refrigerant circuit requires.
This beadlock fitting uses a crimp-style assembly that permanently secures the hose for a leak-free seal under pressure. The 90-degree angle allows installers to route lines around obstructions and through tight engine compartments where straight fittings won't work. Construction combines aluminum and steel with a natural and zinc oxide finish that resists corrosion from moisture and road debris. The O-ring sealing surface ensures compatibility with R134a refrigerant systems common in street rod and restomod applications. For builders assembling complete AC plumbing, we stock complementary components in our fittings, hoses, and valves collection, including straight fittings, tees, and barrier hose by the foot.
This fitting suits anyone installing or upgrading air conditioning in a hot rod, muscle car, or classic truck. The -6 AN size is standard for suction and liquid lines in most aftermarket AC kits. Pair it with quality barrier hose and proper crimping equipment for a system that holds vacuum and maintains charge season after season. Browse our hose selection for compatible AC lines, or check our -6 cap options when you need to temporarily seal open ports during installation.
This fitting accepts -6 AN barrier hose and crimps onto the hose using beadlock-style assembly. The other end connects to a -6 AN female O-ring port, which is standard on most aftermarket AC compressors, condensers, and evaporator units.
Yes. Vintage Air designs their fittings for modern R134a refrigerant systems used in street rods, restomods, and classic vehicle AC conversions. The O-ring seal provides the leak resistance required for R134a operating pressures.
Beadlock fittings require a hydraulic or manual crimping tool with the correct die set for -6 AN hose. Once crimped, the connection is permanent and provides a factory-quality seal. Most professional AC shops and serious builders have this equipment.
A 90-degree fitting routes hose around corners, through firewalls, or past engine components where a straight fitting would kink the hose or create clearance issues. They're common at compressor ports and bulkhead connections.
