Proflex SS Braided Hose #12 x 6'

The Proflex SS Braided Hose #12 x 6' from RUSSELL is a professional-grade hydraulic and fluid transfer line designed for high-performance automotive, industrial, and motorsport applications. This 6-foot hose assembly serves critical roles in brake systems, fuel delivery, power steering, and transmission cooler circuits where reliable fluid containment and pressure rating are non-negotiable. Built to withstand demanding environments, it's the choice for technicians and enthusiasts who require dependable performance without compromise.

Constructed with braided stainless steel reinforcement over a synthetic rubber core, the Proflex SS Braided Hose features superior flexibility and durability compared to standard hose assemblies. The #12 AN (eight millimeter) size indicates a nominal inner diameter suited for moderate to high-flow applications, while the braided stainless jacket provides corrosion resistance, vibration dampening, and extended service life in harsh conditions. The natural finish and robust construction maintain structural integrity under sustained pressure and temperature fluctuations, ensuring consistent performance whether routed through an engine bay or exposed to weather and UV exposure.

This hose is ideal for street rods, custom vehicles, race cars, and industrial hydraulic systems where OEM rubber lines are inadequate. The 6-foot length accommodates typical under-hood routing and custom fabrication layouts, and the AN-standard fittings ensure compatibility with a broad range of adapters and components across the industry. Installation requires secure clamping at entry and exit points to prevent chafing; the braided construction resists kinking even when bent to working radius specifications, making it suitable for tight spaces and complex plumbing configurations.
