AN to NPT 90 Degree #6 x 3/8

The AN to NPT 90 Degree #6 x 3/8 adapter from Triple X Race Components is a precision hydraulic and fuel line fitting engineered for high-performance racing, custom automotive builds, and industrial fluid transfer systems. This 90-degree elbow fitting bridges AN (Army-Navy) and NPT (National Pipe Thread) port standards, solving compatibility challenges when connecting components with different thread specifications. Designed for professionals and enthusiasts who demand reliability under pressure, this adapter eliminates the need for multiple fittings or custom fabrication.

Constructed from aluminum and finished in black anodize, the AN to NPT 90 Degree #6 x 3/8 delivers lightweight corrosion resistance without sacrificing structural integrity. The 90-degree angle geometry allows space-efficient routing of hoses and lines in tight engine bays or chassis configurations where straight connections are impractical. The #6 AN male thread mates securely with standard AN hose fittings, while the 3/8-inch NPT male port accepts NPT-threaded components, providing a robust seal across both connection styles. Black anodizing protects against oxidation and provides a professional appearance on visible installations.

This adapter is ideal for drag racers, street rod builders, and marine engine installations where fuel, coolant, and hydraulic systems must integrate diverse component sourcing. Installation requires matching AN hose ends to the #6 port and NPT-threaded components to the 3/8-inch port; ensure proper thread sealant (PTFE tape or anaerobic compound) on all NPT connections to prevent leakage under operating pressure. The compact 2.35 x 0.8 x 3.5-inch footprint and minimal 0.07-pound weight make it suitable for weight-critical racing applications. Compatible with any system operating within the pressure and temperature ratings of both the AN and NPT standards being joined.
