Podavelle 3AN Male to 3/8-24 3/16" Inverted Flare Female

Podavelle AN3 male to 3/8-24 inverted flare brake line adapters are 304 stainless fittings that convert a 3/8"-24 inverted flare female port to a -3 AN male, supplied as a pack of two for secure frame-mounted brake line terminations.

These compact stainless-steel adapters let you join factory-style inverted flare tubing to -3 AN braided hoses without extensive rework. Machined from 304 stainless, they resist corrosion and are sized for 3/16" steel brake lines commonly used in motorcycle and light-vehicle applications. Each adapter includes an exterior groove designed to accept a retainer clip for added mechanical security at the mounting point.

How do these adapters let me connect my steel brake line to AN hoses?

The adapter converts the female 3/8"-24 inverted flare port into a -3 AN male flare connection so you can attach -3 AN flexible hose assemblies directly. That avoids cutting or flaring new fittings on the line and keeps the transition compact at the vehicle frame or bracket.

• Converts 3/8"-24 inverted flare female to -3 AN male flare
• Fits 3/16" steel brake tubing commonly used for calipers and wheel cylinders
• Works with -3 AN braided hoses for a leak-resistant hose-to-line junction

Are these fittings durable enough for brake and fuel systems?

Built from 304 stainless steel, the adapters provide strong corrosion resistance and mechanical stability in under-hood, chassis, or frame-mounted locations. While suitable for a range of fluids, installation quality and proper sealing are essential; professional installation is recommended to ensure safety and longevity.

• 304 stainless construction for corrosion and wear resistance
• Compatible with brake fluid, fuel, oil, methanol and water
• Machined groove for retainer clip improves mechanical retention

What should I know about installation and compatibility?

These adapters are designed specifically for 3/8"-24 inverted flare female ports and -3 AN male hoses; they do not change thread pitch or require additional adapters if those fittings match. Because fluid systems and safety requirements vary, use the correct hose ends, torque values, and sealing practices. No installation instructions are included, so have a qualified technician fit and inspect them.

• Check thread and flare types before installation to ensure match
• Use proper AN hose ends and torque to prevent leaks
• Retainer clip groove allows secure frame/bracket mounting if needed

Will these adapters work with my vehicle's brake lines?

If your vehicle or motorcycle uses 3/16" steel brake lines terminating in a 3/8"-24 inverted flare female fitting, these adapters will provide a direct way to join -3 AN flexible hose assemblies. They are commonly used where a frame-mounted termination or swap to braided hoses is desired, but always verify measurements and fluid compatibility first.

• Specifically sized for 3/16" steel brake tubing terminations
• Ideal for converting factory inverted flare ports to AN hoses
• Pack of two allows work on both left/right circuits or a spare

Who is this for: Podavelle AN3-to-3/8-24 inverted flare adapters suit mechanics, custom builders, and riders upgrading to braided -3 AN hoses or creating a neat frame-mounted brake line termination. They are best for anyone who needs a compact, corrosion-resistant transition between common inverted-flare brake ports and AN hose systems and who will have the fittings installed and torqued by a professional or experienced technician.
