EVIL ENERGY 12AN Straight Push-Lock Hose Fittings — 2pc Black 3/4" Barb, 6061-T6 Aluminum, 1,500 PSI

EVIL ENERGY's 2-pack 12AN straight push-lock hose fittings convert a 12AN threaded line to a 3/4" barb for rubber fuel hoses, delivering a lightweight, corrosion-resistant connection rated up to 1,500 PSI.

These black-anodized straight fittings are crafted from 6061-T6 aluminum and engineered for use with rubber fuel lines where a secure push-on barb connection is needed. The 12AN threaded end measures 1-1/16-12 UNF and mates to standard AN hose setups, while the 3/4" barb provides a snug fit for conventional fuel hose when used with clamps. They are suitable across a wide temperature range and are commonly used in automotive and small engine fuel systems, heat-tolerant plumbing runs, and custom hose assemblies.

Will this fitting work with my AN-line setup?

Yes — the threaded end is a standard 12AN size (1-1/16-12 UNF), designed to thread into compatible AN fittings, adapters, or hoses. Verify your mating component uses the same 12AN standard to ensure a proper fit.

• Thread spec: 1-1/16-12 UNF (12AN)
• Directly replaces or adapts existing 12AN male/female connections
• Ideal for retrofitting AN to push-lock barb applications

How secure and durable are these aluminum barb fittings?

The fittings are machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and finished with a black anodized coating for corrosion resistance and lightweight strength. They are rated for a maximum working pressure of 1,500 PSI and operate across -40°F to 248°F, making them robust for many automotive and industrial uses.

• Material: 6061-T6 aluminum for strength and low weight
• Coating: black anodized surface for added corrosion protection
• Performance: up to 1,500 PSI working pressure
• Temperature tolerance: -40°F to 248°F

What hose type and installation method should I use?

These barb fittings are designed specifically for use with rubber fuel hoses; they are not intended for braided PTFE lines or push-lock fuel line variants that require different barb profiles. For a leak-free assembly, slide the rubber hose over the barb and secure it with a hose clamp or crimp-style clamp as appropriate for your application.

• Compatible hose: rubber fuel line (3/4" ID nominal to match barb)
• Recommended sealing: use worm-drive or crimp clamps to enhance sealing
• Not suitable for: PTFE braided hose without an appropriate adapter

How easy is it to install and maintain these fittings?

Installation is straightforward: thread the 12AN end to the corresponding AN port and push the rubber hose over the 3/4" barb, then tighten clamps. Periodic inspection for hose wear and clamp tightness is recommended, especially in high-vibration or high-temperature environments.

• Quick hand-threading of 12AN connection; torque per AN fittings recommended
• Push-on barb + clamp for fast assembly without special flaring tools
• Inspect clamps and hose annually or after heavy use

Who is this for: These EVIL ENERGY 12AN-to-3/4" barb fittings are intended for mechanics, fabricators, and DIY vehicle enthusiasts who need a lightweight, corrosion-resistant adapter to join AN-threaded systems to rubber fuel hoses. They suit anyone building or modifying fuel delivery lines, small engine setups, or custom plumbing runs where a secure push-on barb is preferred and compatibility with 12AN threads is required.
