Key Features & Benefits – AN6 to M12x1.5 adapter
The AN6 to M12x1.5 adapter is a threaded connector used to join an AN6 side to an M12x1.5 side, typically in Bosch 044 fuel pump installations. It is useful when your fuel line hardware is AN-based while the connection point requires an M12x1.5 thread.
Correct sealing depends on matching the seating surfaces: AN uses a flare seat, while the M12x1.5 side must seal in the way your specific port is designed (washer/O-ring/seat style).
When is this useful?
This is useful when building a Bosch 044 fuel line and you want to keep AN6 line components while adapting to an M12x1.5 threaded connection point.
Technical specs
- Connection: AN6 – M12x1.5
- Application: for Bosch 044 fuel pump connection
Selection & installation tips
- Thread identification: confirm the port is M12x1.5 and your line side uses AN6 fittings.
- Sealing method: verify whether the M12x1.5 side seals with a washer, O-ring, or a dedicated seat in your setup.
- Seating surfaces: keep flare/seat faces clean and use only undamaged mating parts.
- Line routing: route the hose so the adapter is not side-loaded or installed under tension.
- Leak check: after assembly, check the joint under operating pressure and inspect for seepage.
Before final assembly, verify thread types, sealing method, and routing space, then compare those requirements to the specs above so the connection stays stress-free and sealed.
