8AN Push Lock Hose End Str Black

The REDHORSE PERFORMANCE 8AN Push Lock Hose End Straight Black is a precision-engineered hydraulic fitting designed for high-pressure fluid transfer applications in performance automotive, racing, and industrial systems. This AN hose end connector delivers direct port-to-hose coupling with a swivel female connection, eliminating installation stress and enabling simplified routing in tight engine bays and custom fabrication projects where hose flex and vibration isolation are critical.

The fitting accommodates 8 AN PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) hose and terminates in an 8 AN female swivel port, offering compatibility with standard AN manifold blocks, coolers, filters, and distribution blocks used throughout modern performance platforms. The aluminum construction with black anodized finish resists corrosion from moisture and fuel contact while maintaining visual consistency in show-quality builds. The straight configuration (0-degree orientation) routes hose directly forward or backward without bend adapters, reducing system complexity and potential leak points. Push-lock technology ensures rapid, tool-free assembly and disassembly during maintenance, system diagnostics, or component swaps.

Users rely on this hose end for fuel system upgrades, coolant circulation modifications, hydraulic brake balancing, and transmission cooling applications where standard steel fittings introduce corrosion risk or weight penalties. The swivel female end prevents twisting stress on incoming hose, extending service life and maintaining seal integrity under thermal cycling and pressure pulsation. Whether upgrading a track car, custom street rod, or marine hydraulic system, this fitting bridges PTFE hose to female AN ports with proven performance reliability and straightforward installation. Sold as a single unit.
