P/C #6 to 3/8 NPT 90 Deg Adapter Fitting

The P/C #6 to 3/8 NPT 90 Deg Adapter Fitting is a precision hydraulic and pneumatic connector designed for professionals who demand reliable fluid or air transfer in high-pressure applications. This 90-degree elbow adapter bridges two industry-standard connection sizes—6 AN (dash-6) on one end and 3/8-inch NPT (National Pipe Thread) on the other—making it essential for custom plumbing, aerospace, automotive, and industrial equipment builds. RUSSELL fittings are trusted by technicians and engineers who require zero-leak connections in demanding environments.

Constructed from aluminum and finished in durable black anodized coating, this adapter resists corrosion while maintaining a lightweight profile ideal for weight-sensitive installations. The 90-degree geometry eliminates sharp bends in hose runs, reducing stress concentration and improving flow efficiency while saving space in tight engine bays or equipment compartments. AN fittings use a 37-degree JIC flare seat for positive metal-to-metal sealing, while the NPT side accommodates standard tapered pipe threads—this hybrid design allows seamless integration between two different connection standards without additional adapters or compromised reliability.

This adapter is ideal for cooling system retrofits, fuel system upgrades, air suspension installations, and custom hydraulic circuits where space or performance constraints demand precision routing. Whether you're building a race engine, modifying a truck's brake or transmission cooler lines, or engineering industrial machinery, this fitting ensures compatibility between legacy NPT threaded ports and modern AN quick-disconnect systems. Installation requires standard wrenches or hose crimpers; always use appropriate sealant on NPT threads and verify pressure ratings match your system specifications.
