Fuel Discharge Hose
The Fuel Discharge Hose is a heavy-duty industrial rubber hose specifically engineered for the high-pressure transfer of petroleum-based products. Constructed with a Nitrile (NBR) tube (ARPM Class A) for maximum oil resistance and a durable synthetic rubber cover (ARPM Class B) for abrasion and weather resistance, this hose is designed for demanding truck, marine, and industrial applications.
