Construction & Design

The AutoMeter braided line features a high-grade PTFE inner tube that resists swelling, cracking, and chemical degradation, ensuring consistent performance over time. The stainless steel braid not only enhances durability but also provides a sleek, professional appearance. The fittings are precision-machined to ensure perfect thread engagement and leak-free connections, while the right-angle design of the NPT fitting allows for easier routing in tight spaces. The overall construction emphasizes safety, longevity, and ease of installation, making it suitable for both race cars and daily drivers.

Performance & Sound

While primarily a fluid transfer line, this braided hose ensures minimal pressure loss and maintains integrity under high-pressure conditions. Its robust design prevents expansion or bursting, providing peace of mind during high-performance driving or demanding applications. The stainless steel braid also helps suppress noise and vibration, contributing to a cleaner, more professional installation.

Installation & Fitment
