Push-On 180 Degree Hose End Elbow Fitting -10

The Vibrant Performance Push-On 180 Degree Hose End Elbow Fitting -10 is a precision-engineered AN hose connector designed for high-pressure fuel, coolant, and vacuum line applications in custom and performance automotive systems. This 180-degree elbow fitting allows builders to route hoses around tight engine bays and complex chassis configurations without kinks, pinches, or flow restrictions. Whether you're fabricating a custom fuel system, upgrading a turbo intercooler setup, or routing brake lines in a tight installation, this fitting delivers the directional flexibility professional mechanics and weekend builders need.

Constructed from aerospace-grade aluminum and finished with black anodizing for corrosion resistance, the push-on design accommodates 10 AN hose barbs on both the inlet and outlet sides, with a female 10 AN port connection for seamless integration into modular plumbing systems. The 180-degree geometry means fluid exits directly opposite the inlet path, ideal for U-bends in fuel rails, radiator bypass loops, or turbo supply lines. The hose barb design provides positive sealing against barbed AN hose without additional ferrules, while the push-on interface ensures rapid assembly and disassembly during fabrication and maintenance. Black anodizing protects against corrosion in engine bay heat and moisture, crucial for systems running ethanol fuels or in salt-air environments.

This fitting is indispensable for custom fuel system builders, turbo installation specialists, and road racers constructing bespoke cooling and fuel delivery networks. Mechanics using 10 AN hose throughout their system benefit from standardized sizing, reduced leak points, and the flexibility to route lines without adding unnecessary length or installing hard lines where space is constrained. The compact 3 x 1.5 x 3 inch footprint and lightweight 0.12 lb construction make it suitable for weight-conscious builds. Proper installation requires pushing the hose firmly onto the barbs until the hose seat is fully against the fitting body, then securing with two hose clamps per AN connection to meet industry standards.
