AN Fitting Dimensions and Hose Size Reference
AN (Army-Navy) fittings are a standardized type of fitting commonly used in the automotive, aerospace, and marine industries for their reliability and durability. These fittings are available in a range of sizes, with each size given a numerical designation (e.g., 4AN, 6AN, etc.). In this guide, we will explore the dimensions of AN fittings, covering both male and female thread tables, corresponding AN sizes, equivalent nominal OD tube sizes, hose inner dimensions, and male fitting inner dimensions. We will specifically focus on AN sizes ranging from 4AN to 16AN.
AN Fitting Dimensions
The following tables provide the dimensions for male and female AN fittings, organized by AN size. The dimensions listed include the equivalent nominal OD tube size, hose inner dimension, and male fitting inner dimension.
Table 1: Male AN Fittings

---|---|---|---|---|
4AN | 7/16"-20 | 1/4" (0.250") | 0.194" | 1/8" (0.125") |
6AN | 9/16"-18 | 3/8" (0.375") | 0.302" | 1/4" (0.250") |
8AN | 3/4"-16 | 1/2" (0.500") | 0.390" | 3/8" (0.375") |
10AN | 7/8"-14 | 5/8" (0.625") | 0.511" | 1/2" (0.500") |
