#6 x #8 Female Swivel Connector Black

The #6 x #8 Female Swivel Connector Black from FRAGOLA is a precision fluid-transfer coupling engineered for high-performance fuel, oil, and coolant systems in modified vehicles. Whether you're building a custom fuel injection setup, upgrading a performance cooling circuit, or routing brake fluid in a custom brake bias controller, this swivel connector solves a critical plumbing challenge: secure, leak-free connections that accommodate vibration and misalignment without kinking hoses or straining fittings. FRAGOLA connectors are trusted by engine builders, transmission shops, and serious enthusiasts who demand reliability under demanding operating conditions.

The #6 x #8 designation identifies the port sizes: #6 (3/8-inch) female inlet and #8 (1/2-inch) female outlet, allowing step-up transitions common in fuel systems where supply lines are smaller than return manifolds. The swivel design permits 360-degree rotational freedom, eliminating the need for multiple adapters and reducing stress on adjacent fittings during assembly and thermal cycling. Black anodized aluminum construction resists corrosion and heat, while internal ball-and-socket architecture maintains integrity under pressure spikes typical in mechanical fuel pumps, carbureted systems, and EFI conversions. Compact dimensions (1.5 x 1.15 x 4.15 inches) make it suitable for tight engine bays where hard-line routing space is limited.

Street rodders, vintage race car builders, and EFI retrofit enthusiasts rely on FRAGOLA swivel connectors to simplify hose routing in custom fuel systems where OEM hard lines won't fit modern pump assemblies or fuel pressure regulators. Installation is straightforward: hand-tighten the female ports onto barbed hose fittings or AN adapters, then secure with hose clamps rated for fuel system pressure. Verify compatibility with your fuel type (gasoline, E85, methanol) and operating pressure range; this connector is suitable for fuel, oil, and coolant applications in street and circle-track vehicles. Weighing just 0.05 pounds, it adds negligible mass while substantially improving reliability and reducing future troubleshooting.
