Silicon Hoses

Silicon hoses are a replacement for the standard rubber hoses and are designed to withstand the high temperatures and extreme pressures under your cars bonnet. Most cars will use hosing made from black rubber for engines cooling and induction systems, this material is prone to failure and is only used as a cost effective material for the manufacturers. One way to improve the reliability and performance is to replace these hoses with ones made with a reinforced silicon material, which can operate at much higher temperatures and withstand much higher pressures than the standard hoses, which is perfect for both standard and tuned cars. They are available to buy as car specific kits for coolant, induction or turbo hoses which are perfectly designed as a direct replacement for the original items, otherwise you can buy component parts if you have a special application needs such as reducers, elbow, vacuum hose etc. Silicon hoses also look great and most manufacturers like SFS make them in a wide range of colours to match your taste.
