Stainless Steel Braided CPE Rubber Hose for Fluid Transfer

This braided hose combines a smooth-bore CPE rubber inner hose with stainless steel braid reinforcement. It is designed for compatible fuel, oil, coolant and hydraulic applications where a flexible reinforced hose is required.

CPE Rubber Inner Hose

The CPE rubber inner provides a flexible fluid path and is suitable for the compatible fluids and applications listed in the Specifications.

Stainless Steel Reinforcement

The stainless steel outer braid reinforces the rubber hose and provides additional protection against mechanical wear and abrasion.

Size-Specific Pressure & Dimensions

Internal diameter, outside diameter, minimum bend radius, pressure ratings and other technical values vary by hose size. Refer to the Specifications for the exact values for the selected hose.

Compatible Rubber Braided Hose Fittings

This hose is designed for use with compatible rubber braided hose fittings. Compatible hose finishers are also available for clamp-type connections where appropriate.

Not compatible with PTFE braided hose fittings or push-lock hose fittings. Use fittings specifically designed for rubber braided hose.

Fuel Compatibility

The specified compatible fuels include E5 and E10 petrol and diesel. For fuels such as E85 or methanol, select a suitable PTFE braided hose instead.

Supplied in 0.5 Metre Increments

Select the required hose size and length when ordering. Continuous lengths are available up to 20 metres.

For a covered outer finish, see our black cotton braided rubber hose.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is stainless steel braided CPE rubber hose used for?
This hose is suitable for compatible fuel, oil, coolant and hydraulic applications. It combines a smooth-bore CPE rubber inner hose with stainless steel braid reinforcement.
Which fittings should I use with this hose?
Use compatible braided rubber hose fittings. PTFE braided hose fittings and push-lock hose fittings are not compatible.
Can I use this hose with E5 and E10 petrol?
Yes. E5 and E10 petrol are included in the specified compatible fluids, along with diesel, engine oil, hydraulic oil, coolant, water and air.
Is this hose suitable for E85 or methanol?
E85 and methanol are not included in the specified compatible fluids for this CPE rubber hose. For those fuels, select an appropriately specified PTFE braided hose instead.
What is the maximum operating pressure?
The maximum operating pressure depends on hose size. AN6 through AN12 are rated to 1,000 PSI (69 bar), AN16 to 750 PSI (52 bar), and AN20 to 500 PSI (34 bar). Refer to the Specifications for the corresponding burst pressures.
What temperature range can the hose operate at?
The specified operating temperature range is -40°C to +150°C (-40°F to +302°F).
How do I choose the correct hose size?
Choose the hose size according to the flow requirements, connection sizes and routing requirements of the installation. The Specifications show the internal diameter, outside diameter, minimum bend radius and pressure rating for each available hose size.
Why is minimum bend radius important?
The hose should not be routed more tightly than the specified minimum bend radius for the selected size. The minimum bend radius ranges from 38mm for AN6 to 128mm for AN20 and is listed individually in the Specifications.
What is the difference between rubber braided hose and PTFE braided hose?
This product uses a CPE rubber inner hose, whereas PTFE braided hose uses a PTFE inner. The two hose types also require different compatible hose-end fittings and have different fluid, temperature and pressure specifications.
How is the hose supplied?
The hose is available in 0.5 metre increments and can be supplied in continuous lengths up to 20 metres.
