AN Fittings / Hoses

AN fittings & hoses are commonly used in automotive applications, particularly in high-performance & racing vehicles, to ensure reliable & efficient fluid transfer. AN stands for "Army-Navy" & refers to a standardized fitting & hose system developed by the military. AN fittings are designed to create a secure & leak-free connection between hoses & components such as fuel lines, oil lines, coolant lines, & hydraulic lines. They feature a 37-degree flare on the fitting end, which mates with a corresponding flare on the hose end. This flare design provides a strong & reliable connection that can handle high-pressure applications. AN fittings are available in various sizes, typically identified by a dash number, such as -4, -6, -8, indicating the hose size they are compatible with. AN hoses, on the other hand, are flexible & durable hoses specifically designed to work with AN fittings. They are constructed with a reinforced inner core & a braided outer layer to withstand high-pressure & high-temperature conditions. AN fittings & hoses offer versatility, reliability, & ease of installation, making them popular choices for automotive enthusiasts & professionals seeking efficient fluid transfer solutions.
