Wilwood Quick Disconnect 3 AN Male to Male Quick Disconnect Fitting

Universal Fitment for High-Pressure Hydraulic Brake Systems

Part #: 260-16769

Overview

The Wilwood Quick Disconnect 3 AN Male to Male Quick Disconnect Fitting is a precision-engineered component designed to simplify and speed up the process of changing brake system components. This fitting allows you to quickly connect and disconnect brake lines without the need for tools or bleeding the brake system afterward. It is ideal for performance enthusiasts, race teams, and anyone who frequently services or modifies hydraulic brake systems and wants to minimize downtime while maintaining system integrity.

By using this quick disconnect fitting, you’ll get a secure, leak-free connection that performs as reliably as a traditional threaded flexline fitting. The fitting’s internal spring-loaded seal prevents air from entering the system and stops brake fluid from escaping, ensuring your brake system remains safe and fully operational during component swaps or maintenance.

This fitting is engineered specifically for high-pressure hydraulic brake fluid systems, making it a dependable choice for both street and track applications where quick serviceability is essential.

Key Features

The Wilwood Quick Disconnect fitting combines innovative design with durable materials to deliver a reliable and user-friendly solution for brake line connections. Key features include:

• Clear anodized finish for corrosion resistance and a professional appearance.
• 3 AN male to male configuration compatible with standard 3 AN brake lines and components.
• Quarter-turn quick disconnect design enables fast, tool-free connection and disconnection.
• Internal spring-loaded seal prevents air ingress and fluid leakage, maintaining system integrity.
• Engineered for high-pressure hydraulic brake fluid systems, ensuring safe and reliable operation.
• Provides a secure connection equivalent in strength and reliability to traditional threaded fittings.
• Ideal for configuring hydraulic component spares, allowing pre-bleeding and instant use when needed.
• Compact and lightweight design minimizes added bulk to brake lines.

Construction & Design

The fitting is crafted from high-quality materials with a clear anodized finish that protects against corrosion and wear. The precise machining ensures tight tolerances for a leak-free seal and smooth operation. The internal spring-loaded seal is a critical design element that maintains hydraulic pressure and prevents contamination by blocking air entry and fluid escape during disconnection.

The quarter-turn mechanism is engineered for ease of use, allowing quick and secure connections without tools. This design reduces service time and simplifies brake system maintenance or component swaps, especially in high-performance or racing environments where speed and reliability are paramount.

Installation & Fitment

The Wilwood Quick Disconnect fitting is designed for straightforward installation into existing 3 AN brake line setups. It uses standard AN thread sizes and connects directly to compatible male fittings without modification.

No cutting, drilling, or special tuning is required to install this fitting. Simply thread it into place and use the quick disconnect feature to connect or disconnect brake components as needed. This makes it an excellent choice for both professional mechanics and enthusiasts performing their own brake system work.

• Fits standard 3 AN male brake line fittings.
