Get Your Lines Connected with Jiffy-tite Quick-Connect Fluid Fittings

Few other parts say you are serious about performance and reliability more than AN fittings and lines. They are a major improvement over a roll of rubber hose and a handful of worm gear clamps, for sure. But AN fittings and hose ends have their own drawbacks:

• Stripped Threads: Tighten too much or forget to lube the threads during assembly and you’ll destroy the soft aluminum threads when wrenching
• Crossed-Threads: You think you had the hose end and fitting perfectly in line only to discover they were off by a millimeter and you stripped the threads screwing them together 
• Over-Tightened: All you did was try to give it another quarter-turn and voilà, the nut broke and now there’s a big leak
• Forgot to Tighten: Plumb an entire car and you’re bound to have a couple of dozen fittings to tighten. Sometimes, you miss one and it’s leak city…or worse 
• Stripped Hexes: The edges of the fitting hexes round-off easily, even if you’re using the proper AN tools. Good luck unscrewing the fittings after that happens!
• Scratched Finish: Anodized finishes are extremely thin and scratch very easily. Kiss them goodbye as soon as you put a wrench on them  
• Leakage: Take a connection apart—and whatever fluid is contained in the lines will spill onto the car and ground. And if a flammable liquid drips onto a hot surface…well, you get the picture

Designed by racers familiar with the downsides of AN fittings, Jiffy-tite Quick-Connect Fluid Fittings and Hose Ends don’t have those drawbacks. Jiffy-tite’s lightweight, high-quality aircraft aluminum fittings provide a 100% leak proof seal. A brass valve and stainless steel ball bearings that shut off fluid flow when the fittings are separated. A series of internal seals prevent leaks when the two ends are disconnected. 

Jiffy-tite fittings are easy to work with too. To make a connection, simply pull back on the socket collar, insert the plug, and release the collar. No tools are needed, and it only takes a second or two to do. To disconnect the fittings, just pull back on the socket collar. The spring-loaded valve automatically releases the male plug without making a mess. Plus, the collars are ribbed to provide a slip-proof grip, even when your hands are dirty and grimy. 

You might be wondering if the Jiffy-tite fittings restrict flow. While a miniscule restriction does exist, Jiffty-tite’s high-flow valve design is so efficient that you will never experience a loss of performance or damage to any component due to lack of fluid flow.

Other features include:

• Bi-directional flow through the valve and the plug
• Rugged 6061-T6 aluminum construction with black or gold anodized finish
• Corrosion resistant for extra-long life
• 360° swivel design
• Excellent wear resistance
• Approved for use by all major racing leagues, including the NHRA and IHRA
• Ideal for fuel sampling
• Made in the USA

Jiffty-tite fittings can be used in nearly any automotive application and with any fuel, water, coolant, oil, or transmission fluid in use today.
