Male -6AN x 9/16-18 90 Degree Hose End Fitting

The Vibrant Performance Male -6AN x 9/16-18 90 Degree Hose End Fitting is a precision aluminum connector engineered for high-flow fuel, oil, and coolant line applications in custom engine builds, racing platforms, and performance automotive systems. This 90-degree angle fitting transitions a -6AN hose to a 9/16-18 male port, providing a compact directional change that optimizes plumbing layouts in tight engine compartments where space is critical. The black anodized finish resists corrosion and oxidation, making it suitable for both street and track environments.

Specification details confirm the fitting's lightweight construction at 0.1 lbs and compact size, making it ideal for weight-conscious performance builds. The -6AN designation carries a 10,000 PSI working pressure rating, handling fuel injection pressures and high-volume fuel system demands. The 9/16-18 male thread pattern is a common port standard on carburetors, fuel pressure regulators, and aftermarket manifolds. Vibrant Performance's aluminum body with anodized protection eliminates galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals, a key concern in fuel system integration where steel hoses meet aluminum manifolds or composite fuel rails.

This fitting addresses the specific challenge of route-constrained fuel and coolant lines on turbocharged engines, supercharged builds, and custom carbureted platforms where factory hard-line geometry doesn't accommodate modern performance plumbing. Engine builders and tuners rely on 90-degree directional fittings to change line direction without kinks, turbulence, or pressure drop. The -6AN/9/16-18 combination is a standard interface point on many Holley carburetors, Edelbrock fuel pressure regulators, and vintage-to-modern engine conversion adapters, making this fitting a foundational component in fuel system customization.
