About this part

Product Details

This Vibrant Performance straight bulkhead adapter fitting is made from 6061 aluminum alloy, which keeps it lightweight. It's designed to connect -8AN hoses to various components, making it useful for custom fuel or oil systems. The anodized black finish helps protect the aluminum and gives it a clean look.

The bulkhead design allows you to pass a hose through a panel or firewall securely. It's built for reliability and aims for a smooth flow path, which is important for consistent fluid delivery. While this fitting creates a solid connection, remember that the bulkhead nut is sold separately and is needed to complete the installation.
