Hey is it possible to crimp AN rubber hoses to a connection like this? I'm gonna be using this for 8HP cooling

Yes you can use a hose clamp on that. For a neat look, consider using hose clamp covers (google "AN hose clamp covers").

Or you could have an AN fitting welded/brazed onto that tube, then you would use standard hose ends (google "weld on AN fittings for tube" for examples)

Wow thank you the reply. Is a hose clamp gonna really hold it?

I've never heard about hose clamp covers

What is the expected pressure? The tube has a bubble at the end, so I would think a proper sized hose and hose clamp would work fine something like 150 psi (10 bar) or less.

Oh okay. It's automatic transmission oil pressure so I don't think it will ever go over 100PSI

Alternatively you could cut off the rolled end and use a Hardline to AN adaptor
