6314 – Silicone Braided Radiator Hose
Our SAE J20R1 class A and BS903 tested silicone compound is utilised to make our 6314 silicone braided radiator hose, which has excellent physical and chemical compatibility when used with coolant and corrosion inhibitors. In comparison to other standard materials, the hose has increased elongation, weathering, ozone and tear resistance thanks to its 3, 4, 5 or 6 ply fine mesh polyester reinforcements (depending on the internal diameter).
Numerous sizes and forms of blue silicone hose are available as usual. Fluorosilicone coated hoses are necessary if a hose is needed to transport lubricants and fuels (available upon request). If you’re not sure which hose you need, contact us know.
Applications
Applications include intercoolers, heaters, radiators, and motor vehicles.
