Description
The Mishimoto MMFT-M16-12BK is a purpose-built fabrication fitting that adapts an M16x1.5 metric thread to a 1/2-in push-on hose barb, giving builders a clean, leak-resistant way to transition between threaded ports and push-on hose. Machined from 6061 aluminum and finished in black anodizing, this fitting is engineered for durability while keeping a low-profile, factory-style appearance under the hood. Each pair ships ready to install, with the threaded end sealed by a Viton O-Ring for a dependable, long-term seal.
As part of Mishimoto’s Fabrication lineup, this adapter fitting is designed for enthusiasts and shops who need precise, repeatable plumbing solutions rather than improvised hardware-store fixes. The straight M16x1.5-to-1/2-in barb design allows for precise routing of Baffled Oil Catch Can hose, making it a practical choice when building or upgrading a catch can setup or any system that uses an M16x1.5 threaded port paired with 1/2-in push-on hose. Because the fitting is CNC-machined from 6061 aluminum with a black anodized finish, it holds up to regular use while resisting corrosion, and the included Viton O-Ring keeps the threaded connection sealed. Every Mishimoto product, including this fitting, is backed by Mishimoto’s Lifetime Warranty.
Vehicle Applications
This M16x1.5 to 1/2-in hose barb fitting is a universal fabrication component rather than a vehicle-specific part, so it fits any application where an M16x1.5 threaded port needs to connect to 1/2-in push-on hose. It is particularly suited to routing hose on Mishimoto Baffled Oil Catch Can systems that use this thread size, as well as other custom or aftermarket setups built around an M16x1.5 fitting.
