How to Choose

Start with the hose or line size, then the port you are connecting to. AN sizes run in sixteenths of an inch, so -6 AN is 6/16 or 3/8 inch, -8 AN is 1/2 inch and -10 AN is 5/8 inch. Then match the other end: AN flare, NPT pipe thread, ORB with an O-ring, or metric. Pick the angle that points the line where it needs to go without a tight bend right at the fitting.

Common Questions

Do AN fittings need thread sealant?

No. AN fittings seal on the 37 degree flare, so sealant on the flare or threads is not needed. Only tapered NPT threads need a sealant.

What is the difference between AN and ORB?

AN fittings seal on a 37 degree flare. ORB fittings use straight threads and seal with an O-ring at the base of the thread, which makes them very leak resistant in ports.
