Fitting Hose End Straigh t Swivel Reusable -10 AN

The Vibrant Performance fitting hose end straight swivel reusable -10 AN is purpose-built for custom fuel, coolant, and brake line systems in high-performance automotive applications. Mechanics and engine builders rely on this connector when upgrading from rubber hoses to braided stainless steel lines, where precise fitting geometry and reliable sealing are non-negotiable. The straight swivel design accommodates tight engine bay layouts while the reusable construction makes it cost-effective for prototype builds, race car development, and system modifications where line routing may change.

This -10 AN hose end fitting features a 360-degree swivel joint that eliminates twisting strain on braided hose assemblies during installation and vibration cycles—critical for maintaining leak-free connections under engine bay stress. The aluminum construction with black anodized finish resists corrosion from fuel, oil, and moisture exposure while remaining lightweight. The straight configuration flows fuel or coolant directly without directional offset, ideal for inline fuel filters, carburetors, fuel injection systems, and transmission coolers where space is constrained. The reusable design allows users to disassemble and reassemble the fitting multiple times without degradation, supporting iterative modifications common in custom engine builds and motorsport applications.

Engine builders, street rod fabricators, and performance tuners benefit most from this fitting when assembling custom fuel systems, coolant loops, or brake line upgrades that demand precision plumbing. The -10 AN size (5/8-inch hose ID) pairs with standard braided hose and AN-spec line components found across fuel injection conversions, engine swaps, and turbo installations. Proper installation requires hand-tightening the swivel body to the hose ferrule until snug, then connecting the barbed end to its mating port—no specialized tools needed. Verify hose and port compatibility before assembly to ensure correct pressure ratings and flow capacity for your system.
