These kits deliver superior performance and durability ensuring reliable fuel supply to your engine.
Let’s face it, fuel lines were not intended to last forever, they are a consumable product that will inevitably need to be replaced at some point during the life of the product. When that time comes, the Kustom Truck Stainless Braided Hose kits are the ideal solution to upgrade your engines fuel lines.
There are several advantages to using a stainless braided hose vs. the traditional rubber braided diesel fuel hose that comes standard on Caterpillar, Cummins and Detroit Diesel engines.
- Durability: Stainless braided hoses are known for durability and resistance to wear and tear. They are less prone to cracking, splitting, or deteriorating over time, making them a solid replacement option.
- High Temperature Resistance: Stainless can withstand high temperatures better than rubber which is especially important in applications where high or excessive heat is present.
- Improved Fuel Flow: The smooth inner surface of the stainless braided hose allows for better fuel flow compared to rubber compounds, especially over time as the rubber is exposed to the chemical agents found in diesel fuel.
- Enhanced Appearance: Stainless braided hoses have a sleek and professional look. They can add a touch of style to the engine compartment to help stand out from the pack.
