6an StreetLite Crimp Fitting 45-Degree

The 6AN StreetLite Crimp Fitting 45-Degree by AEROQUIP is a precision hose end connector engineered for high-performance fuel, coolant, and brake line applications in modified and stock vehicles alike. This fitting serves as the critical junction between AN-spec braided hose and female AN ports, delivering reliable pressure containment in systems that demand leak-free performance under demanding conditions. Whether you're building a custom fuel system, upgrading brake lines for track duty, or routing coolant lines in an engine bay reconfiguration, this 45-degree crimp fitting is the professional-grade solution trusted by fabricators and performance mechanics.

Machined from aluminum and finished in black and silver anodized coating, the 6AN StreetLite fitting combines lightweight construction with corrosion resistance essential for long-term durability under the hood. The 45-degree angle eliminates sharp bends in hose runs, reducing turbulence and stress concentration points while improving packaging in tight engine compartments. The crimp design—rather than swage or compression—provides superior vibration resistance and creates a permanent, field-repairable connection when proper AN crimping tools are employed. The compact footprint (2.35 x 1.2 x 3.75 inches) and minimal weight (0.08 lbs) make it ideal for weight-conscious builds where every component counts.

This fitting is essential for custom fuel system builds, supercharger installations, turbo intercooler plumbing, and engine bay modifications where OEM hose routing doesn't suit your layout. The 45-degree configuration works perfectly in confined spaces where straight fittings create difficult angles or excessive hose bending. It accepts 6AN hose on the crimp end and connects to any component featuring a 6AN female port, making it compatible with fuel regulators, dampeners, filters, carburetors, and performance cooling systems. Installation requires a quality AN hose crimper and proper die selection—investment that pays dividends across multiple projects given the universal application of 6AN hose in modern performance automotive work.
