THE 3 BASIC ELEMENTS OF PLUMBING

In order to plumb your vehicle with a minimum amount of time, effort and money, you should know the basics about hose, hose ends and adapter fittings. Hose diameters are assigned AN numbers. Using your automotive hose size, choose from the chart below to find the AN equivalent for hose, hose ends and adapter fittings. For example: a 3/8" standard hose equals -6 AN.

STD. AUTOMOTIVE HOSE		AN EQUIVALENT
1/4"	=	-4
3/8"	=	-6
1/2"	=	-8
5/8"	=	-10
3/4"	=	-12
1"	=	-16
1-1/4"	=	-20
1-1/2"	=	-24

Another easy method to convert AN size to fractional is to remember that each AN number represents 1/16".

For example: -8 AN = 8/16" = 1/2".
