Product Overview
The LEAD-FLEX FUEL & DIESEL OIL HOSE is a specialized product engineered to handle fuel oil and diesel oil in suction and discharge operations. Developed by LEAD-FLEX, it prioritizes safety and compatibility with fuel-based fluids. Its construction features an oil-resistant inner tube—a material that prevents swelling, cracking, or leaking when in contact with fuel, ensuring safe fluid transfer. The hose includes a durable reinforcement layer that supports both suction (pulling fluid) and discharge (pushing fluid) operations, avoiding collapse or deformation. The outer layer is a weather and oil-mist resistant rubber cover, protecting against UV rays, rain, and oil mist—making it suitable for outdoor fuel stations and indoor storage facilities.
Product Advantage
Fuel & Diesel Compatibility: The oil-resistant inner tube is formulated exclusively for fuel oil and diesel oil, preventing chemical reactions that cause leaks in generic hoses.
Suction & Discharge Versatility: It works for both suction and discharge, eliminating the need for multiple hoses and simplifying setup.
Weather Resistance: The weather-resistant outer cover protects against UV damage and rain, making it ideal for outdoor use at construction sites or farms.
Lightweight & Flexible: It is lightweight and flexible, making it easy to handle, install, and maneuver around fuel tanks or machinery—reducing operator fatigue.
Stable Working Pressure: It maintains a stable working pressure, ensuring consistent flow whether suctioning from tanks or discharging into vehicles.
Long Service Life: The combination of oil-resistant materials and weather protection results in a long service life, lowering replacement costs.
Technical Parameters
The LEAD-FLEX FUEL & DIESEL OIL HOSE uses fuel-optimized materials. The oil-resistant synthetic rubber inner tube ensures compatibility with fuel oil and diesel oil, preventing fluid absorption. The reinforcement layer supports suction and discharge operations, avoiding collapse during suction or expansion during discharge. The weather and oil-mist resistant outer cover repels UV rays, water, and oil mist. It is available in multiple inner diameter options to match flow rates, and all versions have a minimum bend radius for flexible installation. Its working pressure and burst pressure meet fuel-handling safety standards, ensuring no leaks or failures.

FAQ
Can this hose be used for gasoline?
No, it is designed for fuel oil and diesel oil only. Gasoline’s properties damage the inner tube, leading to leaks.
Is it suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, its weather-resistant outer cover protects against UV rays and rain, making it ideal for outdoor fuel stations or farms.
Does it work for both suction and discharge?
Absolutely—it is engineered for both suction and discharge, with reinforcement to handle pressure changes.
What is the inner tube made of?
It uses oil-resistant synthetic rubber, which prevents swelling or leaking when in contact with fuel oil and diesel oil.
Are different sizes available?
Yes, multiple inner diameter options exist to match flow rates—from small diameters for compact machinery to large sizes for high-volume transfer.
