If you’re diving into a project that needs some serious hose work, let me tell you about this HPS 2-9/16" (65mm) High Temp 4-ply Reinforced Silicone 45 Degree Elbow Coupler Hose. This isn’t just any hose; it’s built to handle the heat and pressure that comes with heavy-duty applications. I’ve used it for everything from custom turbo setups to radiator cooling systems, and it’s held up like a champ.
First off, this hose meets and exceeds the SAE J20 industry standards, so you know it’s not cutting corners. It’s designed for high-performance requirements, which makes it perfect for marine and industrial use. Whether you’re fabricating your own intercooler piping or just need something reliable for your DIY intake, this 45-degree elbow is a solid choice.
Now, let’s talk specs. The temperature range is impressive, handling anything from -65°F to a scorching +350°F (that’s about 177°C for those who prefer metric). It’s got a 4-ply reinforced construction that gives it the durability to withstand tough conditions. The inside diameter measures 2.56" (65mm), while the outside is 2.96" (75mm), and each leg stretches out to 4". The wall thickness is a beefy 4.5mm, so you can trust it won’t collapse under pressure.
And if you’re worried about UV rays or ozone, this hose has got you covered—it's resistant to both. Just a heads up, though: don’t use this silicone hose with fuel or oil; it’s not compatible. But for air, water, and other non-fuel applications? It’s a go!
In a nutshell, if you need a reliable, high-temp hose for your next project, this HPS silicone elbow is worth checking out. It’s tough, versatile, and gets the job done without any fuss.
