AN To NPT 90 Degree -8 x 1/2in

The AN To NPT 90 Degree -8 x 1/2in adapter fitting is engineered for hydraulic and fuel system applications where reliable, leak-free connections are critical. This 90-degree angle adapter bridges two industry-standard port types—8 AN (Army-Navy) male threads and 1/2 inch NPT (National Pipe Thread) male ports—making it essential for custom fuel lines, brake systems, power steering assemblies, and aftermarket performance builds. Whether you're working on race car plumbing, restoration projects, or OEM-style system modifications, this adapter ensures compatibility between components that would otherwise require incompatible connection methods.

Manufactured by Allstar Performance, a trusted name in performance automotive components, this fitting is constructed from aluminum and finished in black anodize for corrosion resistance and durability in harsh underhood environments. The 90-degree configuration allows space-efficient routing of hoses and lines where straight adapters would create clearance issues or obstruct engine bay layout. The black anodized aluminum construction provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio while resisting oxidation and fluid degradation over extended service life, making it suitable for both street and competition applications where reliability cannot be compromised.

Technicians, engine builders, and DIY enthusiasts performing fuel system upgrades, brake line fabrication, or hydraulic system customization will find this adapter indispensable for connecting legacy NPT ports to modern AN-style quick-disconnect or banjo-style fittings. Installation is straightforward—apply appropriate thread sealant to the NPT male end, thread into the NPT female port, and connect your AN line or fitting to the opposite end. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed to prevent thread stripping or leakage, and verify compatibility with your specific fuel type and system pressure rating before assembly.
