36in PTFE Hose -8AN Female Fittings

The 36in PTFE Hose with -8AN Female Fittings from Vibrant Performance is purpose-built for high-performance fuel, coolant, and fluid transfer applications in modified and race vehicles. Designed for mechanics and enthusiasts who demand reliability in custom engine builds, this hose assembly delivers the durability needed for aggressive modifications where standard rubber hose fails. Whether you're upgrading a turbo fuel system, installing a remote oil cooler, or plumbing a custom water cooling circuit, this hose provides the foundation for systems that won't weep or fail under sustained boost or elevated temperatures.

PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) construction offers superior chemical resistance and temperature tolerance compared to traditional rubber or braided hose, handling fluid temperatures and pressures that would degrade conventional materials. The -8AN female fitting size is the industry standard for high-flow fuel systems and performance cooling circuits, providing a secure, leak-free connection point that won't separate under vibration or thermal cycling. At 36 inches in length, this hose bridges engine compartment distances commonly found in mid-engine swaps, fuel cell relocations, and remote radiator installations without requiring multiple segments or splices that introduce failure points. The PTFE inner tube resists swelling from ethanol fuels, methanol blends, and synthetic coolants—critical for builds using race fuel or aggressive additives.

Mechanics installing turbocharged engines, LS swaps, and custom fuel systems will find this hose essential for plumbing that handles both the pressure demands and temperature swings of modern performance platforms. The -8AN female fittings accept standard AN male adapters and bulkhead connectors, ensuring compatibility with aftermarket fuel pumps, carburetors, intercooler circuits, and transmission coolers. Installation is straightforward for anyone experienced with AN systems—simply mate the female fittings to your fuel pump outlet, carburetor inlet, cooler line, or remote component, then secure the hose away from exhaust and moving engine parts using appropriate clamps or routing brackets. This 36-inch length eliminates guesswork when planning tight engine bay layouts or remote auxiliary systems.
