Explore applications

Fuel Cell

Silicone hoses in fuel cell systems are crucial for managing the flow of gases and coolants. They connect various components, such as the fuel cell stack and heat exchangers, ensuring efficient and safe transport of hydrogen and coolant fluids.

Intercooler

Silicone hoses are crucial in intercooler setups for their ability to withstand extreme temperatures and pressures. They connect the intercooler to the turbocharger and engine, facilitating the efficient flow of cooled air. 

 

Turbo

Silicone hoses are essential in turbo systems for their durability and heat resistance. They connect various components like the turbocharger, intercooler and engine, handling high temperatures as well as pressures from the turbocharged air.

Airflow

Silicone hoses are used in air handling systems for their flexibility and high temperature resistance. They efficiently route and manage air flow within systems such as HVAC, compressors and turbochargers. 

Glycol Coolant

Silicone hoses are widely used in glycol coolant systems for their superior heat resistance and durability. They facilitate the circulation of coolant between the engine, radiator and heating systems, effectively managing engine temperatures.

Chemical Transfer

Silicone hoses are extensively utilised in chemical transfer systems due to their excellent chemical resistance and durability. They handle the safe transport of a variety of aggressive chemicals without degrading or leaching.

Fuel Filler

Silicone hoses are used in fuel fillers due to their chemical resistance and flexibility. They connect the fuel filler neck to the fuel tank, allowing for safe and efficient fuel transfer. Their robust material prevents deterioration from fuel exposure.

Vents Breathing

Silicone hoses are integral to vent breather systems, offering high flexibility and chemical resistance. They connect to the engine’s crankcase or other components to safely channel vapours and gases away.
