#6 to 11/16-18 Male Inv Flr Stl Pwr Steering Adp

The XRP #6 to 11/16-18 Male Inverted Flare Steel Power Steering Adapter is a precision hydraulic fitting designed for high-pressure marine and automotive power steering systems. This straight adapter connects AN-6 male fittings to 11/16-18 inch inverted flare male ports, making it an essential component for custom steering installations, engine swaps, and performance upgrades on boats and high-performance vehicles where OEM steering geometry requires non-standard port configurations.

Built from steel with zinc oxide plating, this adapter delivers the corrosion resistance necessary for saltwater and freshwater marine environments. The straight-through design eliminates flow restrictions common in bent fittings, preserving pressure consistency critical to responsive steering feel. The inverted flare connection format seals under extreme pressure without requiring secondary ferrules, reducing potential leak points on steering systems where even minor seepage can compromise hydraulic performance and steering control. At 0.09 lbs and compact dimensions (2.7 x 1.2 x 4.1 inches), the adapter integrates into tight engine bays without weight penalties.

This adapter serves weekend boaters managing custom steering repairs, serious offshore anglers retrofitting power steering for precision maneuvering in challenging conditions, and automotive enthusiasts performing engine conversions where factory steering ports don't align with aftermarket pump configurations. XRP-Extreme Racing Products manufactures performance hydraulic components engineered for motorsports and marine applications where steering reliability determines safety and handling precision.

The #6 to 11/16-18 sizing spans common automotive and marine steering pump outlet ports to classic boat steering receiver configurations, making it a versatile solution for restoring or upgrading systems where OEM fittings are unavailable or incompatible with modern upgrades.
