Default AN Fitting Dimensions...anyone?

Having some trouble finding the correct fitting I need, not due to inlet/outlet sizing but actual dimension of the fitting.

Was wondering if anyone had physical dimensions on any of these fittings?

All are -6 on each end.

Loop the power steering fittings off the rack, the line I had on tore somehow and I want to replace it with something I don't have to second guess. I tried a 180º -6 an to a hose barb, and the diameter of the bend was too wide.

use a metric to -6AN fitting; and use a braided hose to loop it.

Yea, I have the 14x1.5mm and 16x1.5mm fittings already in the rack, I just need to run a T fitting of some sort to the breather....Really don't want to do anything overkill like run 2 feet of SS line...just need to know the dimensions of the fittings listed above...maybe Earl's supplies the numbers?

the number following the dash - is the numerator of a fraction with a denominator of 12
-6 is 6/12 or half inch, dash 8 is 8/12 or 2/3 of an inch - dash 12 is 1", was this your question?

ITRNorway, same problem I'm having. The 180º sits a little too wide of the fitting off the rack.

Actually, AN sizing is tube size in 16th's of an inch, not 12th's.
-4 is 1/4 tube
-6 is 3/8
-8 is 1/2
-10 is 5/8
-12 is 3/4
-16 is 1
