If you're diving into some serious automotive projects, you might want to take a look at this HPS 1/8" High Temp Blue Silicone vacuum tubing. I’ve been using it for a while now, and it’s become a go-to in my garage for everything from vacuum advance systems to turbo setups. This stuff is made from premium-grade silicone, which means it can handle the heat—literally. With a temperature range that spans from -65°F to a scorching 350°F (that's about 177°C for the metric folks), it’s built to withstand some serious conditions.
One of the things I really appreciate about this hose is its heavy wall design. It’s not just about flexibility; it’s tough enough to handle extreme pressure without flinching. And let me tell you, when you’re working on high-performance applications, you don’t want to cut corners on quality. The ultra-flexibility and excellent tensile strength make it a breeze to work with, whether you're fabricating custom turbo piping or setting up a DIY radiator cooling system.
Now, a word of caution: this silicone hose isn’t compatible with fuel or oil, so keep that in mind when planning your projects. But if you're looking for something that excels in marine and industrial applications, this is a solid choice. Plus, it’s UV and ozone resistant, which means it can take a beating from the elements without breaking down.
Here’s a quick rundown of the specs: the inside diameter is 1/8" (or about 3mm), and the outside diameter comes in at 1/4" (6mm). You get a generous length of 100 feet, which is perfect for tackling multiple projects without running out mid-way. The wall thickness is 1.5mm, giving you that extra peace of mind when you’re pushing your setup to the limits.
In short, if you’re in the market for a reliable silicone vacuum hose that can handle the heat and pressure, this HPS tubing is definitely worth considering. It meets and exceeds SAEJ20 industry standards, making it ideal for heavy-duty pressure connections. So go ahead, add some serious durability to your setup!
