AN to NPT 90 Degree #12 x 3/4

The AN to NPT 90 Degree #12 x 3/4 adapter from Triple X Race Components is engineered for high-performance hydraulic and fuel system applications where reliable flow direction changes are critical. This 90-degree elbow fitting bridges AN (Army-Navy) and NPT (National Pipe Taper) thread standards, making it an essential connector for custom race car builds, hydraulic brake systems, fuel lines, and power steering setups. Built for environments where vibration, pressure spikes, and temperature fluctuations demand durability, this adapter eliminates the need for multiple fittings and reduces leak points in your system.

Constructed from lightweight aluminum and finished in black anodize, this fitting combines strength with corrosion resistance—critical for both underhood and exposed marine environments. The 90-degree geometry allows hose or pipe routing around tight engine bays, frame rails, and suspension components without crushing bends that weaken lines. The #12 AN (3/4-inch equivalent) port on one end threads seamlessly into NPT-threaded ports on the other, providing a secure pressure-rated connection that won't weep under sustained load. Black anodize finish protects the aluminum substrate while maintaining a professional appearance on display-quality builds.

This fitting is ideal for fabricators, racing teams, and enthusiasts integrating imported or specialty components that use NPT ports into systems built with AN standards. Common applications include custom fuel system plumbing, aftermarket hydraulic brake line adaptation, turbo oil return fittings, and power steering pump integration. Installation is straightforward—apply thread sealant (PTFE tape or pipe dope) to the NPT side and torque to manufacturer specifications. Weighing just 0.16 lbs, it adds negligible mass while solving compatibility challenges that would otherwise require custom machining or compromise system integrity.
