Photos can be seen? Unless everyone use the same?
Is this steel hose ? Maybe I`m wrong, but I think that runmc used that hose (it had that same color) in his oollddd SS ;)
yes, steel hose...
And there are alternatives? Here that I wish to learn... Especially very flexible...
what is the pressure max ?
maX = 16-17? other 11-12 - normal
My understanding is that the low-side line is not under much pressure in normal use but when you turn off the pressures equalise and hence the low side goes up a lot. Hence why you need strong flex line.
Most of those lines are for natural gas hookups and are rated for very low pressures, as is pointed out a lot:fact: .... but, the low rating is due mainly to the connectors, not the line itself. Try brazing 3/8" copper ends to it and test it at 300psi with nitrogen and I think you will find that the line is strong enough.;)Quote:

don't use that. You need something rated higher. Generally, steel corregated tube is rated around 80psi (without brade) and up around 1000psi with brade.
And brazed joints are always better.
I have also (but never used) a teflon hose braded w/ stainless steel with flare fittings...something like that would be better than what you have shown above..
hey gclg2000 I was just wondering if you were still around.

how are you?
I asked: THAT can be better than that that on a photo! Can hoses for refuelling? Or they lower gas? That is necessary to me that is not made of integral metal
You are doing a good job on english, but concintrate on grammer as it is more important then spelling the word right.
Your question is a bit hard to under stand, what you wish to learn?
Are you wishing to know:
The hose can be used to fill the system?
The hose be used as a DD flex line?
The hose bad for using?
What is a beter hose then the one in Photo?
It is frustrating I know, but keep at it, you'll get there and it will be worth the hassle :D Language is a hard to jump berrior but the wealth of knowledge on the other side is a reward in of its self
