Product Description
Give clamp-secured hose connections a cleaner, more finished appearance with the e85Freaks AN-Style Hex Hose Finisher Clamp. The black anodized aluminum outer body surrounds the hose connection while an integrated clamp provides the mechanical clamping force.
The result is a compact hose clamp that visually complements AN plumbing without leaving a conventional hose clamp fully exposed.

A Cleaner Alternative to an Exposed Hose Clamp
Traditional clamp-secured hose connections work well, but the exposed clamp can look out of place in an engine bay built around clean AN plumbing.
The e85Freaks AN-Style Hex Hose Finisher places an aluminum outer body around the connection, giving the hose end a cleaner, more purposeful appearance while retaining the simplicity of a clamp-secured hose connection.
This makes it especially useful for custom fuel and fluid plumbing where a hose-and-barb style connection is appropriate but the builder wants the finished connection to visually integrate with the rest of the AN system.
AN-Style Appearance Without an AN Flare Connection
This product is a hose clamp and finisher — it is not an AN hose end or AN flare adapter.
The AN-style size designation and hex-shaped aluminum body give the clamp the appearance of an AN plumbing component, but the clamp itself does not create a 37° AN flare seal.
Always verify that the hose, barb, tube, or component being connected is designed for a clamp-secured hose connection.
Works with 250 and 350 Series Hose
These clamps can be used with both e85Freaks 250 Series rubber-core hose and e85Freaks 350 Series PTFE hose when the correct clamp diameter is selected for the hose being used.
Important: The size labels in the product selector are based on the outside diameter of the 250 Series hose. The 350 Series PTFE hose has a different outside diameter, so a clamp used with 350 Series hose may require a smaller labeled clamp size.
Do not select the clamp solely by the nominal AN size printed on the hose. Clamp selection is based on the actual outside diameter of the hose at the installation location.
Choose the Correct Clamp Size
Available size labels include:
- AN3
- AN4
- AN6
- AN8
- AN10
- AN12
- AN16
- AN20
250 Series: Select according to the corresponding 250 Series hose size.
350 Series: Because PTFE hose construction and outside diameter differ from the 250 Series rubber-core hose, the corresponding clamp may be smaller than the nominal AN hose size. Verify the hose outside diameter before selecting the clamp.
For Clamp-Secured Hose Connections
This finisher clamp is intended for applications where the hose and mating component are designed to use a mechanical hose clamp for retention.
It should not be used as a substitute for a dedicated reusable AN hose end, PTFE compression fitting, crimp fitting, or other connection method required by the hose and component being installed.
Unbranded by Design
The fitting should complete the build, not compete with it.
The black aluminum exterior is intentionally free of oversized logos and unnecessary exterior branding. That allows the clamp to blend naturally with the rest of a clean fuel or fluid system instead of drawing attention to the hardware itself.
For tucked engine bays and carefully routed plumbing, the result is a more cohesive finished connection without adding unnecessary visual clutter.
Matching e85Freaks Hose
These hose finisher clamps can be paired with e85Freaks 250 Series Nylon Braided Fuel Hose or appropriately sized e85Freaks 350 Series Nylon Braided PTFE Fuel Hose where the application uses a clamp-secured connection.
Always match the hose, clamp, and connection method to the requirements of the component being installed.
