AN To NPT Straight -8 x 1/2in

The ALLSTAR PERFORMANCE AN to NPT Straight -8 x 1/2in adapter (ALL 49514) is a precision hydraulic fitting designed to bridge 8 AN (JIC) male connections to 1/2 inch NPT male ports. Manufactured from aluminum and finished in black anodize, this straight adapter provides corrosion resistance and reliable sealing in high-pressure fluid systems common to performance automotive, racing, and industrial hydraulic applications.

The -8 AN designation indicates the JIC size standard, which carries a maximum operating pressure rating suitable for fuel systems, brake lines, and coolant circuits in competition and modified vehicles. The NPT (National Pipe Taper) threaded port accommodates standard plumbing and industrial hydraulic components, making this adapter invaluable when integrating aftermarket fuel delivery systems, custom cooling loops, or performance braking upgrades that mix JIC quick-disconnect standards with NPT-threaded reservoir ports, tank fittings, or gauge ports. Black anodize finish protects the aluminum body from oxidation and provides a finished appearance in engine bays.

This fitting serves mechanics, fabricators, and performance enthusiasts building custom fluid systems where component sourcing requires mixing connection standards. Whether routing fuel lines from an external pump to an overflow tank, connecting coolant lines to aftermarket radiators, or adapting gauge ports in custom harness kits, this straight adapter eliminates the need for multiple fittings or expensive custom solutions. Lightweight aluminum construction keeps system weight minimal without compromising strength under pressure cycling and vibration exposure typical of track and street performance vehicles.
