8AN 150 Degree AN/Hose End Push Lock Black

The 8AN 150 Degree AN/Hose End Push Lock Black from REDHORSE PERFORMANCE is a precision hydraulic and fuel line fitting engineered for custom automotive builds, race applications, and high-performance engine modifications. This push-lock style end connector serves as the terminating point for braided hose assemblies in fuel systems, coolant loops, power steering circuits, and transmission cooler lines where reliability under pressure is non-negotiable. Whether you're fabricating a fuel system for a carbureted street rod, installing a custom radiator hose setup, or assembling a competition engine bay, this fitting delivers the secure connection and clean aesthetics that serious builders demand.

The 150-degree angle design positions hose routing away from engine components, exhaust manifolds, and firewall obstructions—a critical advantage when space is tight or when factory clearances have been eliminated by performance modifications. The 8AN sizing (1/2-inch nominal inner diameter) accommodates moderate to high flow rates typical of fuel injection systems, electric water pumps, and auxiliary cooling loops without excessive pressure drop. REDHORSE PERFORMANCE's push-lock mechanism eliminates the need for hose clamps or crimping tools; the fitting's internal barb and spring-loaded collar grip securely onto hose without restricting inner diameter, and the black anodized finish resists corrosion in engine bays exposed to heat, oil mist, and road salt.

This fitting is ideal for builders upgrading fuel delivery on fuel-injected engines, converting carbureted platforms to EFI, or routing coolant and transmission fluid lines in custom chassis and engine swaps. The push-lock design works with any SAE-compliant braided hose rated for the system's operating pressure and temperature—no special preparation beyond cut-to-length hose is required. Compatibility extends across domestic and import platforms where custom hose runs are preferred over factory hard lines for both durability and serviceability. Verify hose inner diameter and system pressure rating before installation to ensure optimal fit and performance in your specific application.
