8an to 12mm x 1.5 Adapt. Fitting Black

The 8AN to 12mm x 1.5 adapter fitting in black is a precision hose connection component designed for fluid systems that require mixed port standards. This straight-design adapter bridges AN (Army-Navy) threaded connections to metric ISO ports, making it essential for custom hydraulic lines, fuel systems, and pneumatic applications where standardization across different manufacturers is necessary. Whether you're building a custom cooling circuit, fuel distribution system, or integrating imported components into a domestic platform, this adapter eliminates the need for incompatible fittings and reduces assembly complications.

Manufactured by FRAGOLA, this adapter is constructed from aluminum and finished in black anodized coating, which provides corrosion resistance and a professional appearance while maintaining durability in both engine bay and enclosed system environments. The 8AN male port accepts standard -8 AN hose fittings (common in racing and high-performance applications), while the 12mm x 1.5 male metric thread integrates with ISO-standard female ports found on many imported components, OEM systems, and aftermarket manifolds. Anodized aluminum construction keeps weight minimal—at just 0.05 pounds—while delivering reliable performance in temperature-cycled and pressurized applications typical of automotive and motorsport use.

This fitting is ideal for enthusiasts and technicians integrating multi-sourced components into performance fuel systems, intercooler lines, coolant circuits, and transmission cooler setups where AN and metric standards coexist. Installation is straightforward: thread the 12mm x 1.5 end into the female metric port with appropriate sealant, then connect your -8 AN hose to the 8AN male end using a standard swaged or reusable hose fitting. Compatibility spans a broad range of domestic and import platforms, from vintage restoration projects to modern turbocharged engines, making this adapter an invaluable addition to any serious builder's toolkit.
