What is a Fuel Hose?
A fuel hose is a rubber or plastic composite hose that is used inside combustion engines to move the fuel from the fuel storage tank to the engine. The fuel hose is secured to the tank and engine with the use of metal clamps. The same type of material is used for a multitude of hoses for cars, trucks, boats and other motorized vehicles. This type of hose is often used to drain gas tanks and siphon combustible liquids. The inside of the hose is lined with thick rubber with built in anti-static properties. This reduces the possibility of static electricity forming and igniting the fuel, which would create an explosion.
