What is the purpose of the olive inserts?

The olive inserts are a key part of the fitting's design. They help to create a reliable seal between the hard tubing and the adapter when you make your connection, ensuring there are no leaks in your fluid system.

What kind of tubing does this adapter work with?

This adapter is specifically designed to work with 3/8 inch outside diameter hard tubing. It's important to ensure your tubing matches this size for a proper fit and seal.

What is the benefit of the 45-degree angle?

The 45-degree angle on this adapter allows for more flexible routing of your lines. This can be very helpful in tight engine bays or custom setups where you need to navigate around other components.

About this part

Product Details

When you're building or modifying a fuel system, brake lines, or any other fluid transfer setup that uses AN fittings, you often need to connect a piece of hard tubing to an AN-style connection. This Vibrant adapter is designed to help you do just that, giving you a clean 45-degree transition from your 3/8-inch hardline to a -6AN male fitting.

It's made from 6061 aluminum, which keeps the weight down, and it has a black anodized finish for a bit of protection and a sharp look. The adapter comes with olive inserts, which are crucial for creating a reliable seal when connecting to your hard tubing. This fitting is a popular choice for custom fabrication projects where precise routing and secure connections are important.
