AN stands for Army Navy and was a standardized designation created during World War II for the manufacture of hydraulic fittings for aircraft. The dash sizes correlate to the standard size in 16ths of an inch. So a -8AN would mean 8/16ths of an inch or 1/2" i.d.

Is engine coolant the same as antifreeze? No. Though engine coolant and antifreeze serve the same purpose—to keep your engine from freezing up or overheating—they are not the same. Antifreeze is a concentrated glycol-based solution that must be diluted with water before use. Engine coolant is a 50/50 mixture of antifreeze and distilled water so no dilution is necessary. Can I add water to my engine coolant? Engine coolant is already pre-diluted with water, so no addition is necessary. Though a little bit of water added to the engine coolant won’t cause damage, adding too much will reduce its effectiveness. |
