Fuel-Cell Silicone Hoses: High-Performance Fuel Delivery for Demanding Applications

Our Fuel-Cell Silicone Hoses represent the pinnacle of fuel delivery technology, engineered for superior performance and reliability in high-pressure, high-temperature, and chemically aggressive environments. Unlike standard rubber hoses, these hoses are specifically designed for use with fuel cells, ensuring optimal fuel flow and preventing leaks – critical for maximizing power and maintaining vehicle safety.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Superior Fuel Compatibility: Engineered from high-quality, reinforced silicone, these hoses are highly resistant to the aggressive chemicals found in various fuels, including gasoline, ethanol blends (E85), methanol, and diesel, preventing degradation and ensuring long-term performance. This resists permeation and swelling, maintaining hose integrity and preventing fuel leaks.
• Exceptional Temperature Resistance: Withstand extreme temperature fluctuations, ranging from -65°F (-54°C) to 500°F (260°C) intermittently, and 450°F (232°C) continuously. This makes them ideal for demanding applications where temperatures fluctuate dramatically, such as racing vehicles and high-performance engines.
• High-Pressure Capability: Designed to handle extreme pressures, far exceeding the requirements of standard fuel lines. Specific pressure ratings vary by hose size and reinforcement; please consult the sizing chart for details. This ensures reliable fuel delivery even under demanding conditions.
• Reinforced Construction: Multiple layers of reinforced fabric within the silicone wall provide exceptional strength and durability, preventing kinking, collapsing, and burst failures under pressure. This contributes to a long service life and enhanced safety.
• Smooth Inner Bore: A smooth, abrasion-resistant inner bore minimizes friction and turbulence, promoting optimal fuel flow and preventing fuel restrictions. This enhances fuel efficiency and engine performance.
• Variety of Sizes and Configurations: Available in a wide range of sizes and configurations to fit a variety of applications, including straight hoses, elbows, and various specialized fittings. Custom lengths and configurations are available upon request.
• Easy Installation: Designed for easy installation and secure connection to fuel cell components. (Specify compatible fittings here, e.g., AN fittings, JIC fittings).

Applications:

• Racing Vehicles: Formula cars, dragsters, off-road vehicles, and other high-performance racing applications.
• High-Performance Engines: Custom engine builds, modified vehicles, and performance-oriented applications.
• Fuel Cell Systems: Ideal for use with all types of fuel cells.
• Industrial Applications: Suitable for various industrial applications requiring high-performance fuel transfer.
