EVIL ENERGY 6AN 90° Push-Lock Hose Fitting End Black 2PCS — 6061-T6 Aluminum, 3/8" Barb

EVIL ENERGY 6AN 90° push-lock hose fitting end in black is a compact, corrosion-resistant aluminum adapter that converts a 6AN threaded port to a 3/8" barb for rubber fuel lines.

This two-piece fitting set gives you a right-angle connection designed for tight engine bays or route-sensitive lines. Machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and finished in black, each adapter features a 9/16-18 UNF 6AN thread on one end and a 3/8" barb on the other, delivering a compact transition that resists corrosion and keeps routing neat. The fittings are intended for push-lock style hoses (rubber fuel lines) and work effectively when secured with clamps to improve sealing.

How does this 90° fitting make routing easier?

The 90-degree bend lets you change hose direction immediately at the port, reducing hose kinks and freeing space in constrained areas. Because the elbow keeps the hose close to the mounting surface, it helps maintain a tidy layout and minimizes stress on the hose entrance.

• Right-angle design for tight engine compartments
• Short profile to reduce hose bending radius
• Works with rubber fuel lines to keep routing clean

What sizes and thread standards does the adapter use?

The adapter converts a 6AN threaded port (9/16-18 UNF) to a 3/8" barb fitting suitable for common rubber fuel lines. This specific size match is common in aftermarket plumbing and fuel systems for many performance and repair applications.

• 6AN (9/16-18 UNF) threaded male end
• 3/8" barb outlet for flexible rubber hose
• Sold as a pack of two identical fittings

What materials and operating limits should I expect?

Each fitting is machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, offering a balance of lightweight strength and corrosion resistance. The fittings are rated for general high-pressure use up to 1,500 PSI and a broad temperature range, but they are intended specifically for rubber fuel lines rather than hard tubing.

• 6061-T6 aluminum construction for strength and light weight
• Maximum working pressure: 1,500 PSI
• Temperature range: -40°F to 248°F

How should I install and seal these fittings for reliable service?

Installation is straightforward: thread the 6AN end into the mating port and push the rubber hose onto the 3/8" barb. While the barb provides initial hold, using a hose clamp at the barb is recommended to secure the connection and improve sealing under pressure.

• Hand-start the 6AN thread, then tighten to proper torque spec
• Push the rubber hose fully onto the 3/8" barb
• Use a worm-drive or crimp clamp to ensure a leak-free seal

Who is this for? If you work on performance engines, custom fuel systems, racecars, or DIY vehicle plumbing and need a compact, reliable way to change hose direction while converting a 6AN port to a 3/8" rubber line, this EVIL ENERGY 90° push-lock fitting is a practical, easy-to-install choice. It suits mechanics, hobbyists, and fabricators who want a rugged aluminum adapter for routing in tight spaces, provided they pair it with proper rubber hoses and clamps for secure service.
