Sleeve for fuel hose.

Anyone come across a source for the black sleeving that's used on the fuel lines and a couple of other places like power steering pressure hose and 6.9 suspension pump delivery hose?

It needs to be fuel/oil and temperature resistant, probably some sort of silicon material, 19mm ID for the fuel and suspension hose and 25 ID for power steering hose, 1mm or less wall thickness.

Only thing I've found is on ebay UK at about $150 for 4 meters including post and it only comes in blue or red.

There MUST be something suitable in AUS somewhere.

This is also the same material used on most engine wiring looms too.

Have you tried places like Enzed ? Would seem the most likely source.

I would have thought so too but no luck with any of the hose shops.

There is a place in Brisbane called Diesel Spares. Not sure if they are in other states, but some sort of truck spares place might be worthwhile.

Thanks, I'll keep looking.

It seems the idea of putting a loose fitting sleeve over fuel or hydraulic hoses to catch and direct away atomised liquid is a weird idea when I make enquires, I get some blank looks.
