Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use this hose for my fuel lines?

No, this hose is not suitable for oil or fuel applications as these chemicals will cause the silicone to break down.

Does this include the hose clamps needed for installation?

No, fixings and clamps are not included and must be purchased separately.

Can the legs of the 90-degree bend be cut?

Yes, the 152mm legs can be trimmed to your desired length using a sharp utility knife or silicone hose cutter.

What is the operating temperature limit?

The hose is designed to operate safely between -40°C and +180°C.

Is this hose suitable for high-pressure turbo applications?

The 4-ply construction is designed to handle significant pressure, making it suitable for many intake boost applications, provided it is clamped correctly.

Troubleshooting

Hose slipping off the pipe connection

Ensure you are using the correct size T-bolt or worm-gear clamp and that the mating pipe surface is clean and dry.

Hose collapsing under vacuum

Verify that the hose length is not too long, creating a kink, and ensure the 4-ply reinforcement is not damaged.

Visible degradation or swelling

Check the system immediately for fluid contamination, as the hose is likely being exposed to oil or fuel.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-heat resistance up to 180°C
  • Reinforced 4-ply design prevents collapse under vacuum
  • Flexible material simplifies routing in cramped engine bays
  • Industry-standard compliance ensures consistent quality

Cons

  • Not compatible with fuel or oil applications
  • Fixings such as clamps are not included
  • Requires manual trimming for precise length fitment

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a long service life, measure your existing path carefully before cutting the 152mm legs. While silicone is durable, it can be punctured by sharp objects; ensure all mating surfaces on your pipes are clean and free of burrs or rust.

Important Installation Notes:

  • Clamps: Always use smooth-band hose clamps designed for silicone hoses to prevent cutting into the material.
  • Lubrication: A light mist of water or a silicone-based lubricant can help slide the hose onto stubborn metal pipes.
  • Compatibility: Verify your application is strictly for air or coolant. Do not use this hose in systems circulating oil or fuel, as these substances will degrade the silicone material rapidly.
  • Cleaning: Clean the exterior periodically with mild soap and water to remove road grime and debris.
