1 Pressure port fitting (AN06-02MS)

Choose Your Oil Return Fitting

Not sure which option to select? Choose the Standard Return.

The Standard Return is the recommended option for most installations. It is the primary configuration shown in our current installation guide, video, and product imagery.

Standard Return — Recommended Default

Select this option when you do not have a specific hose-routing preference. The straight fitting allows the return hose to run directly away from the return port and works well for most typical installations.

1 Straight return port fitting (AN06-06MS)

90-Degree Elbow Return — Optional Routing Choice

Select the elbow fitting when you prefer the return hose to immediately turn 90 degrees after leaving the return port. This option was added for customers who want to route the hose in a different direction or need additional flexibility around nearby components.

The elbow option does not change the filtration system or its performance. It only changes the direction of the return hose connection.

1 90-degree return port fitting (AN06-06MS90)
