Fuel-resistant technical hose Polix 8 mm x 25 m P1608000082515P

Polix fuel-resistant technical hose with an 8 mm inner diameter and 25 m length is designed for transferring petroleum-based fluids and for general workshop and maintenance tasks where a compact, fuel-compatible hose is required. The hose construction provides flexibility for routing through confined spaces and around equipment while maintaining resistance to fuels and many oils used in machinery and small engines. Its lightweight design and modest diameter make it suited for temporary or permanent installations where a dedicated fuel line or transfer hose is needed.

Advantages

The fuel-resistant material ensures compatibility with petrol, diesel and many mineral oils, reducing degradation and swelling compared with non-specified hoses. The 8 mm inner diameter offers reliable flow for small engines, fuel lines and transfer drums while keeping the hose easy to handle and route. A 25 m length reduces the need for coupling multiple short sections and allows flexible placement between tanks, pumps and engines. The hose is manufactured to provide consistent internal diameter and wall thickness, supporting predictable flow rates and secure clamp connections.

Suitable for

• Fuel transfer between containers, drums and small tanks
• Replacement or extension of fuel lines on small engines and equipment
• Workshop fluid handling where fuel resistance is required
• Temporary fuel supply runs for machinery during maintenance

Key specifications

• Inner diameter: 8 mm
• Length: 25 m
• Material: fuel-resistant elastomer (suitable for petrol, diesel and many mineral oils)
• Flexible construction for routing in confined spaces
• Suitable for use with standard hose clamps and barbed fittings

How to use

Cut the hose to the required length with a sharp cutter to ensure a clean, square end. Fit the hose onto appropriate barbed fittings or pipes and secure with suitable hose clamps rated for fuel use. When routing the hose, avoid sharp bends, kinks and contact with hot surfaces or sharp edges that could abrade the outer layer. Inspect connections for leaks after pressurising or transferring fuel and re-tighten clamps if necessary. Store unused lengths coiled in a dry, shaded area away from direct sunlight and sources of heat.

Usage recommendations

Use the hose only for compatible fuels and oils; do not use for strong solvents, concentrated acids or gases unless the fluid compatibility is confirmed. Regularly inspect the hose for signs of ageing, cracking or softening, and replace if any deterioration is found. Ensure clamp and fitting materials are compatible with fuel service to prevent corrosion or failure.
