EVIL ENERGY 6AN Male Flare to -6 Female Swivel with 1/8 NPT Gauge Port — Fuel Pressure Take-Off Fitting, Aluminum

Overview

The EVIL ENERGY fuel pressure take-off fitting is designed to simplify monitoring and sensing in your fuel line. This compact adapter combines a 6AN male flare to a -6 female swivel with a practical 1/8 NPT gauge port, yielding a versatile connection between lines while keeping your setup tidy and serviceable.

Key Benefits at a Glance

• Fuel pressure take-off: Use the 1/8 NPT gauge port to attach gauges or sensors between fuel lines, enabling real‑time insights without reworking your plumbing.
• Solid build: Crafted from 6061‑T6 aluminum, the unit pairs strength with light weight for automotive and performance applications.
• Reliable sealing: AN threads seal at a 37-degree angle, while the NPT portion uses a 60-degree taper. A sealant or PTFE tape on the NPT port is highly recommended for best results.
• Broad compatibility: The 6AN flare and -6 female swivel help you connect standard fuel lines and sensors with minimal hassle.

Specifications and Construction

• Thread details: 6AN flare to -6 female with a 9/16-18 UNF for the flare and a 1/8 NPT gauge port.
• Material: 6061-T6 aluminum alloy, chosen for rigidity and corrosion resistance in engine bays and under-chassis environments.
• Max working pressure: 1,500 PSI, suitable for many performance fuel systems.
• Operating temperature: -40°F to 250°F, enabling operation in cold starts and hot engine bays alike.
• Common use: Widely used to insert a pressure gauge or sensor between fuel lines, helping you observe system behavior without major rework.

Real‑World Scenarios

Whether you’re tuning a street car or building a track-ready setup, this take-off fitting offers a clean, efficient path to monitor fuel pressure. The swivel design helps align your lines with minimal stress, reducing wear where hoses bend and connect. The aluminum construction helps maintain a balanced weight profile in compact installations while standing up to regular engine bay temperatures.

Installation Tips

• Prepare your fittings and ensure all threads are clean before assembly.
• Apply sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT port to promote a tight seal and prevent leaks.
• Tighten connections to manufacturer or component-specified torque guidelines to avoid over‑torquing.

Why EVIL ENERGY
