Built from 6061-T6 aluminum with an NBR O-ring, it provides a corrosion-resistant connection rated for demanding automotive and motorsport fluid systems. The design pairs a 37° flare sealing geometry on the AN side with an O-ring seated on the ORB side to create a reliable, pressure-rated joint for fuel, oil, and other compatible liquids.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this adapter create a leak-resistant connection?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adapter uses two complementary sealing methods: a metal-to-metal 37° flare angle on the 12AN side and a compressed NBR O-ring on the ORB side. This combination reduces the chance of leaks across threads and mating surfaces while remaining serviceable for tightening or replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e37° flare on 12AN side provides a metal seal at the flare face\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNBR O-ring on AN10 ORB side compresses into the port for a fluid-tight seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThread sizes match standard AN and ORB dimensions for secure engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat materials and temperature\/pressure limits should I expect?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is machined from aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum, offering strength with low weight and good corrosion resistance.

It is commonly used where a hose with a 12AN flare fitting must interface with an AN10 ORB female port on components like pumps, rails, or filters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFuel rails and high-flow fuel systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOil coolers, filters, and engine oil lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFuel pumps and pressure regulators that accept AN10 ORB ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I install and maintain the fitting for best performance?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires matching thread engagement and correct O-ring seating; hand-start threads, then torque to manufacturer recommendations to avoid over-compression. Inspect the O-ring before reuse and replace it if cut, flattened, or hardened to retain a proper seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClean mating port and flare surfaces before assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHand-start threads to prevent cross-threading, then torque to spec\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplace O-ring during service intervals or if damage is detected\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\nThis EVIL ENERGY adapter comes as a two-piece set (2PCS) and is engineered for installers who need a compact, dependable conversion between 12AN flare lines and AN10 ORB ports. It is not a pressure-relief device and should be used only with compatible fluids and within the stated temperature and pressure limits. If you require compatibility with incompatible fluids, consult material charts and replace the O-ring with a suitable compound.\n\nWho is this for\n\nThis adapter is aimed at automotive technicians, tuners, racers, and DIY mechanics who modify fuel or oil systems and need a lightweight, high-strength connector. It suits anyone replacing components, adapting aftermarket parts, or building custom plumbing where a 12AN flare hose must mate to an AN10 ORB-style port.\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Can this adapter handle fuel system pressure?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes — the adapter is rated to 1500 PSI, suitable for most fuel and oil system pressures when used with compatible hoses and fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Is the O-ring replaceable and what material is it?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes.
