• Regular gasoline
• Ethanol (E85 or E100)
• Diesel fuel
• Biodiesel
• Methanol
• Nitrous oxide
• Engine oil (synthetic or regular)
• Transmission fluid
• Engine coolant/antifreeze
• Brake fluid
• Hydraulic clutch fluid
• Air Conditioning Refrigerant (R12 or R134A)
• Air and water
  

Most of the braided stainless steel lines and fittings that you can buy actually have a rubber (EPDM or NBR) interior. Some competing products advertise a special coating on the inside of the rubber to make them resistant to ethanol and certain other chemicals. Why would you use a material that isn't 100% resistant to the chemicals in your application for absolutely no reason? Our PTFE lines are superior to our competitors rubber lines in many ways and they cost less too!

These lines are made of high-quality PTFE on the inside that gives them high chemical and heat resistance, along with a braided stainless steel outside which gives them high durability, extreme pressure resistance, and a professional and high-tech appearance. Be careful when buying Braided Stainless Steel Hose because they are not all the same! Make sure yours are compatible with the fluid, pressure and temperature in your application.

Braided Stainless Steel PTFE lines like these are great for replacing many factory rubber hoses such as rubber fuel lines, brake lines, and clutch lines. PTFE does not deteriorate or bulge with age like rubber does, and has far superior chemical resistance. The stainless steel outside keeps the inner diameter uniform, allowing faster and more efficient fluid transfer (this means a firmer, more responsive pedal feel when replacing brake lines.) The stainless steel outside also keeps the lines looking shiny, new and professional all the time, and prevents damage to the inner hose.

Question: Are these lines Teflon?

They are chemically identical to Teflon, however we can't call them Teflon because Teflon is a registered trademark of DuPont.

Question: What can I do with these lines?

• Use them to replace your fuel lines and convert your car to run on Ethanol without worrying about breaking down your inferior factory lines
• Deliver the methanol in your custom methanol injection kit
• Design or modify your nitrous oxide system
• Install an aftermarket oil cooler
• Install an aftermarket transmission cooler
• Run the water lines for a water to air intercooler
• Install custom brake lines
• Repair or replace the lines in your hydraulic clutch system
• Repair or replace the lines in air conditioning system
• And More!

This is sold per foot. If you order 10 of these, we will ship you a 10ft continuous length of line.

Here's how to install the Votion fittings on our lines:

1. Slide the outside of the fitting over the stainless steel line.
2. Carefully feather out the stainless steel braiding and insert the PTFE line into the middle part of the fitting. The PTFE line must slide all the way down into the middle part of the fitting. The edge of the PTFE line should pertrude approximately 1/8" from the middle part of the fitting, so that it can be opened up and gripped against the top part of the fitting.
3. 
4. Slide the end of the fitting through the middle part of the fitting, all the way into the PTFE line. You'll notice the PTFE line being opened up by the top part of the fitting, which helps it seal in the third place when you tighten the fitting.
5. 
   
6. Tighten the end of the fitting to the other end. The finish on these do tend to scratch after some use, so use a rag and a wrench, or a special tool to tighten these fittings.
