Classic Car Fuel Unions & Fuel Pipe Fittings
Stevson Motors supplies an extensive range of fuel unions and fuel pipe fittings for classic and vintage vehicles. Our range includes pipe joiners, tee pieces, banjos, banjo bolts, BSP nuts, nipples, olives, fuel stems and hose connectors in a choice of sizes and materials.
We stock fittings for both rigid fuel pipe and flexible fuel hose, including push-on, solder, threaded, crimp and clip-type connections. Oil gauge unions and adaptors are also available.
Whether you are replacing one damaged fitting or rebuilding a complete classic car fuel system, our team can help you identify a suitable part from our range.
Fuel Unions for Classic and Vintage Cars
Small differences in thread, bore, material and connection type can determine whether a fuel fitting is correct for a particular vehicle.
Our collection covers a broad selection of British and European classic-car applications, including components suited to fuel pumps, filters, carburettors, tanks, rigid pipe and flexible hose.
The range includes:
- BSP male and female nuts
- Brass and steel nipples
- Brass fuel pipe olives
- Fuel stems
- Straight pipe joiners
- Push-on tee pieces
- Hose connectors
- SU-type banjos
- AC-type filter banjos
- Banjo bolts
- Oil gauge unions and adaptors
Individual products are available in different thread and bore combinations, so the existing component should be identified carefully before ordering.
BSP Nuts, Nipples and Fuel Pipe Olives
Stevson Motors stocks a selection of BSP nuts in brass and steel, with several thread and bore options available. These include male and female fittings as well as thin-wall and thick-wall variations.
Our range also includes brass cone nipples, flat nipples, solder nipples and fuel pipe olives in imperial and metric sizes. Available olive sizes include 1/8″, 3/16″, 1/4″, 5/16″, 3/8″, 6mm and 8mm.
Where a nut, nipple and olive form part of the same connection, all components must be compatible with the pipe diameter, thread and mating fitting.
Fuel Banjo Fittings and Banjo Bolts
Banjo fittings are commonly found where a compact fuel connection is required at a pump, filter or carburettor.
Our range includes brass and steel banjos for hose, pipe, push-fit, soldered and threaded connections. We also stock several fittings for SU-type applications, including:
- Single and double banjos
- Straight and 90-degree banjos
- Push-fit banjos
- Solder banjos
- Threaded banjos
- Overflow-pipe banjos
- Square-based pump banjos
- Float-bowl banjo bolts
- Reproduction SU-type banjo bolts
AC-type fuel-filter banjos are also available in brass and steel.
Always check the connection style, thread, bore, angle and material against the original component or the vehicle’s technical information.
Push-On and Solder-Type Fuel Fittings
Different fuel-system layouts require different methods of connecting pipe and hose.
Push-on fittings are designed for use with a compatible flexible hose. Stevson Motors stocks push-on tee pieces, fuel stems and several push-fit banjo designs.
Solder-type fittings are intended for use with suitable rigid pipe and include nipples, banjos and combination fittings. Some of our SU-type fittings are available with solder, threaded or mixed connection arrangements.
We also carry crimp and clip-type components for appropriate applications.
Brass and Steel Fuel Fittings
Fuel unions in the Stevson Motors range are available in brass, steel or both, depending on the fitting.
Material should not be selected by appearance alone. The dimensions, connection method, application and compatibility with the remaining fuel-system components all need to be considered.
If you are replacing an original fitting, retaining the old component for comparison can make identification easier.
How to Identify the Fuel Union You Need
Before ordering a replacement fuel fitting, check as many of the following details as possible:
- Vehicle make, model and year
- Location of the fitting
- Fuel pump, filter or carburettor type
- Male or female connection
- Thread type and diameter
- Pipe outside diameter
- Hose inside diameter
- Straight, tee or angled design
- Push-on, solder or threaded connection
- Brass or steel construction
Clear photographs and accurate measurements can help our team narrow down the available options. For unusual or difficult-to-identify components, contact Stevson Motors before ordering.
