Nitrile Rubber Hose Applications
Nitrile rubber braided hoses have great resistance to oil and fuel. These hoses are available in various sizes and shapes.
Automotive fuel hoses generally feature oil-resistant tubes of NBR, sometimes compounded with polyvinyl chloride or PVC. As with airbrake hoses, reinforcement is often textile yarn made of polyester, polyamide, or rayon.
