Key Features & Benefits – AN8 aluminum male weld bung
The AN8 aluminum male weld bung is used to create a permanent AN connection point by welding it into a suitable component. It is functionally suited to systems that need a Dash 8 (AN-8) male connection.
Typical applications include fuel tanks, swirl pots, surge tanks and radiators where a fixed welded connection is preferred. The webshop listing is for 1 piece, which makes it easier to plan the required quantity per project.
When is this useful?
This is useful when you are building a custom fuel, oil or cooling setup and need a fixed AN8 outlet or inlet on a tank, reservoir or radiator. It helps when connection position and hose routing need to be planned directly into the fabricated part.
