What is an AN ORB fitting?

AN ORB (O-Ring Boss) fittings use a straight-cut thread with an O-ring to create a seal. This is different from traditional flare fittings that seal metal-to-metal. They are often found on modern fuel and oil system components.

What kind of hose can I use with the 3/8-inch barb end?

The 3/8-inch barb is designed to accept standard rubber or silicone hose that fits snugly over the barb. You'll typically secure it with a hose clamp to prevent it from slipping off under pressure.

Does this fitting come with a hose clamp?

This fitting includes the O-ring seal for the ORB side, but it does not come with a hose clamp for the barb end. You will need to supply your own appropriate-sized hose clamp.
