Hose, Fittings, Adaptors & Accessories

Hoses, fittings, adaptors, and accessories in fuel and oil systems for motorsport vehicles are engineered to withstand the extreme conditions of high-performance racing. These components are typically made from high-strength materials such as stainless steel, aluminium, and reinforced synthetic rubber, which offer excellent resistance to high temperatures, pressures, and corrosive fluids. The construction ensures durability and reliability in demanding environments.

Hoses are designed with multiple layers, including an inner lining that is compatible with fuel or oil, a reinforcement layer for strength, and an outer layer that resists abrasion and environmental damage. The inner lining often features fluoropolymer or PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) to ensure compatibility with a wide range of fluids and to prevent permeation. Reinforced braiding, usually made from stainless steel or nylon, provides additional strength and flexibility, allowing hoses to maintain integrity under high pressure and extreme conditions.

Fittings and adaptors are precision-engineered to ensure secure and leak-free connections. These components are typically manufactured from anodised aluminium or stainless steel, offering superior strength and corrosion resistance. They are designed to match specific hose diameters and thread types, ensuring compatibility and ease of installation. High-quality fittings include features such as O-ring seals and swivel joints to prevent leaks and facilitate easy assembly and disassembly.

Accessories such as clamps, brackets, and protective sleeves enhance the reliability and performance of the fuel and oil systems. Clamps are used to secure hoses in place, preventing movement and potential damage. Brackets provide support and correct routing of hoses, ensuring optimal flow and preventing kinks. Protective sleeves shield hoses from heat and abrasion, extending their service life. The integration of these components ensures that fuel and oil systems in motorsport vehicles operate efficiently and reliably, even under the most challenging conditions.
