Motorcraft Tubes and Lines are engineered to provide superior performance and reliability. Each design undergoes rigorous lab and real world tests to ensure long life and optimum performance under harsh operating conditions.
Features & Benefits
- High quality materials are used to help withstand vibration, extreme temperatures and harsh chemicals as well as cracks, damage and leakage
- Must pass tests for resistance to static and dynamic pressure, burst pressure and temperature extremes
- Burst testing subjects the lines to over 1,750 PSI to help ensure hose and fittings integrity when subjected to high temperatures
- Vibration tested to detect unwanted resonance noises
- Must pass 1,000 hour leak tests to help ensure corrosion resistance
- Flexible tube sections are reinforced with braided polyester for added strength
- Foam insulators help protect against chafing and possible under hood rattles
- Hard lines are pre bent to fit and mounting brackets are included, where applicable
