Frequently asked questions

Do push-on hose barbs need a clamp?
Yes, put a clamp over the barb on rubber hose for fuel or oil. Barbs are made for low-pressure lines like carby feeds, returns and breathers, not EFI feed pressure.

Do AN fittings need thread tape or sealant?
No. The seal is made on the 37 degree flare, not the thread, so keep tape and sealant off the AN side. Only the NPT (tapered pipe) end of an adapter needs sealant.

What size is an AN6 fitting? Is 6AN the same as 3/8?
Yes. AN6 (also written -6 or 6AN) suits 3/8" (9.5 mm) hose or tube and uses a 9/16"-18 thread. The dash number is the size in sixteenths of an inch, so AN6 = 6/16 = 3/8".
