The VIBRANT PERFORMANCE -3AN 10ft PTFE Stainless Steel Braided Flex Hose is a professional-grade hydraulic and fuel line assembly engineered for high-pressure fluid transfer in performance automotive, marine, and industrial applications. This hose delivers the reliability required in systems where pressure spikes, vibration, and thermal cycling demand superior durability and consistent performance under demanding conditions.
Constructed with a PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) core, this hose resists degradation from fuel additives, ethanol blends, and aggressive hydraulic fluids that can compromise standard rubber lines over time. The stainless steel braided outer jacket provides abrasion resistance and protects against external damage during installation and operation. The -3AN fitting specification indicates a nominal inner diameter of 3/16 inch, suitable for moderate-flow applications in fuel systems, transmission coolers, and auxiliary hydraulic circuits. The 10-foot length allows flexible routing around engine bays and complex equipment layouts without requiring additional couplings that introduce leak points.
This hose assembly is specified for motorsports builds, off-road recovery winch systems, marine fuel delivery, and industrial hydraulic setups where OEM rubber hose fails to handle heat cycling or chemical exposure. The lightweight construction (0.5 lbs for the 10-foot section) minimizes vehicle weight while the pre-assembled configuration with AN fittings eliminates field crimping variability. Operators and technicians value VIBRANT PERFORMANCE hoses for consistency across multiple build platforms and for the peace of mind that comes with proven performance in high-reliability applications.
The -3AN standard is widely recognized in performance automotive and industrial fluid systems, making this hose compatible with standard AN-threaded fittings and adapters. Before installation, verify that your system's pressure rating and fluid type align with PTFE hose specifications, as PTFE exhibits different thermal expansion characteristics than rubber and may require adjustment stops on certain applications to prevent abrasion at mounting points.
