8AN Crimp Style Hose End Black STR

The 8AN Crimp Style Hose End Black STR from Redhorse Performance is an essential component for fluid delivery in custom fuel, coolant, and brake system installations, particularly in modified vehicles. This fitting is ideal for those building high-performance engine swaps, upgrading fuel delivery for turbo or supercharger applications, or fabricating custom cooling loops.

Featuring a crimp-style design, this hose end provides a secure, leak-free connection that eliminates the reliability issues often associated with push-on or threaded adapters. The black anodized aluminum construction offers corrosion resistance, making it suitable for engine bays and under-vehicle environments while maintaining a sleek appearance. The straight configuration (STR designation) ensures direct fluid flow, minimizing turbulence and pressure loss, which is crucial for high-flow fuel systems.

Engine builders, fabricators, and performance enthusiasts will find this hose end particularly beneficial due to its precision manufacturing, which guarantees consistent bore sizing and barb geometry. This ensures optimal hose retention pressure and system reliability, making it a preferred choice for serious automotive projects.
