Description

It is essential for safety that users NEVER install PTC (Push to connect) fittings direct into McPherson struts. Nylon PTC hose is not designed to be moved through such acute angles on a second by second basis. They will leak, and can fail totally.

It is only safe to install a proper armoured hose which is impact resistant, designed for constant movement and in the case of these hoses rated to 10,000 psi so they are suitable for any air installation. Sometimes called a “flexi” hose or “Flexi-hose” these are similar to brake hoses which make the same journey from suspension to chassis.
