FAQ

Q1: How do I choose the right straight hose length for my application? A: Standard 76mm length suits most connections. For tight spaces use 50mm. Long connections require 100-150mm. Complex circuits can use 300-500mm versions or cut our 3-metre hose. Plan minimum 20mm engagement under clamp each end for optimal sealing.

Q2: What's the difference between 3-ply and 4-ply wall thickness? A: Our hoses up to 38mm diameter are 3-ply (3 polyester layers, thickness 4.3mm). From 41mm onwards, 4-ply construction (4 layers, thickness 5mm) for increased strength. 4-ply supports higher pressures and better suits high-pressure turbo applications or large flow rates.

Q3: Can I use a straight hose as fuel or oil line? A: No, our standard VMQ silicone hoses resist vapors but not permanent fuel/oil contact. For these applications order our specific FKM/Viton fuel hoses or consult our custom service. VMQ perfect for water, air, intercooler but unsuitable for fuel circuits.

Q4: How do I connect two pipes with slightly different diameters? A: If difference under 2mm, silicone adapts with appropriate tightening. For larger gaps use our dedicated reducer hoses. Never force straight hose onto unsuitable diameter, risk of tearing or leakage. Precisely measure pipe outer diameter before ordering.

Q5: Do your hoses resist modern long-life coolants? A: Fully compatible with all coolants G11, G12, G13, OAT/HOAT/Si-OAT formulations. Exceptional chemical resistance, no degradation with modern anticorrosion additives. Tests validated 200,000km with manufacturer fluids. Flushing recommended when changing fluid type.

Q6: How many 60mm hoses length 100mm do you stock? A: Permanent stock minimum 20 units common references like 60x100mm. Popular diameters 45-76mm always immediately available. For orders exceeding 50 identical pieces, 48h pre-order enables optimal preparation. Continuous replenishment guarantees availability 365 days/year.

Q7: How do I cut your 3-metre hose cleanly? A: Use new craft knife or fine hacksaw. Mark complete circumference before cutting for straightness. Lightly deburr inside after cutting. For multiple identical cuts make template. Avoid scissors which crush walls. Lubricate blade for clean cut.
