Male -10AN x 1-16-12 90 Degree Hose End Fitting

The Male -10AN x 1-16-12 90 Degree Hose End Fitting is a precision hydraulic adapter engineered for high-performance fuel, coolant, and brake line applications in custom vehicle builds and engine conversions. As a mechanic working with modified engines and fuel systems, you'll recognize this fitting as essential infrastructure for routing hoses at 90-degree angles without kinking or restricting flow. This adapter bridges -10 AN (10/16-inch) hose connections to 1-1/16-12 male ports, making it ideal for tight engine bays where straight runs are impractical and space constraints demand compact routing solutions.

Manufactured by VIBRANT PERFORMANCE from lightweight aluminum with black anodized finish, this 90-degree elbow fitting resists corrosion while maintaining minimal weight—critical in performance applications where every pound counts. The anodized coating protects against oxidation in wet engine environments and provides clean aesthetics under the hood. The elbow design eliminates turbulence and pressure drop that occur with hose bends, maintaining consistent flow rates and system pressure integrity. Its compact footprint (4.15 x 1.3 x 4.55 inches) allows installation in confined spaces where header-mounted fuel rails, remote filter mounts, or intercooler systems demand precision angular connections.

This fitting serves LS engine swaps, carburetor conversions, nitrous oxide systems, and custom cooling loops where -10 AN hose routes through engine bay obstacles. Install using standard AN hose crimping equipment and confirm your system pressure rating doesn't exceed the fitting's specifications for your fuel or coolant application. The 1-1/16-12 male thread pattern is common on aftermarket fuel pressure regulators, carburetor inlets, and filter housings, making this adapter a reliable bridge between modern AN plumbing standards and legacy or custom component ports. Proper sealing requires quality hose crimps and system testing before full operation.
