PTFE core fuel hose with external stainless reinforcing braid. Use with PTFE specific hose ends. PTFE is the most chemically resistance hose available and is compatible with all automotive fluids and fuels, including all race fuels, methanol, and ethanol,. (except acetone) Infinite service life. High density PTFE core cannot be permeated by automotive fluids, so no smell will be "weeped" from the hose. Thin PTFE core contributes to small outer diameter and improved bend radius over typical rubber/stainless hose. Stainless reinforcement may increase vehicle NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) in some applications
PTFE (PTFE core with stainless steel outer reinforcement)
ADVANTAGES
- Compatible with all automotive fuels, lubricants, and coolant
- Infinite shelf and service life
- Non-permeable = no smell when vehicle parked in enclosed locations
- Small outer diameter for AN size = small bend radius, light weight
DISADVANTAGES
- May contribute to NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness)
- Stainless braid may damage contacted surfaces
- Expect longer installation times
