About this part

Product Details

This is a Vibrant Performance -16AN 45-degree bulkhead adapter fitting, finished in black anodize. It's designed to help you connect a -16AN hose to a component that requires a bulkhead fitting, like a fuel tank or oil reservoir, allowing you to pass a hose through a panel or wall securely.

It’s made from 6061 aluminum alloy, which keeps it lightweight while still being strong enough for most fuel and oil systems. The 45-degree angle helps you route your hose cleanly around obstacles or to achieve a specific connection point. This fitting is designed for a smooth flow and an anti-leak seal when properly assembled with its corresponding bulkhead nut, which is sold separately.

You'll want to make sure you have the correct bulkhead nut for this fitting to ensure a secure, leak-free connection. This adapter is a popular choice for custom fuel systems, oil cooler lines, and other fluid transfer applications where a clean bulkhead pass-through is needed.
