Eaton Aeroquip's proprietary AQP (elastomer) core fuel hose with flat black Kevlar and Nomex external reinforcing braid. Compatible with all automotive fluids and fuels, including all race fuels, methanol, and ethanol. Easiest to install and repair due to the lack of stainless reinforcement. AQP elastomer is permeable by automotive fluids, so expect fluid smell from the hose. (higher alcohol content fuels will permeate more aggressively) Expect 5-7 year service life (dependent of fluids used and conditions) Elastomer construction will not contribute to vehicle NVH. (Noise, Vibration, Harshness)
Startlite (AQP elastomer core with Kevlar / Nomex outer reinforcement)
ADVANTAGES
- Compatible with all automotive fuels, lubricants, and coolant
- Easy to cut, fast to assemble and install
- Will not contribute to NVH (noise vibration, harshness)
- Soft outer braid will not damage contacted surfaces
DISADVANTAGES
- Permeable = expect fuel smell smell when vehicle is parked in enclosed locations
- Expect 5-7 year life
