HPS Performance 5/16" FKM Lined Silicone Hose is a specially developed hose that features a fluoroelastomer liner in our world-class silicone hose. The HPS Performance 5/16-inch (8mm) ID FKM Lined Silicone Hose provides excellent resistance to the harshness of gasoline, diesel, and automotive oils. FKM lined hoses can be used in areas where conventional silicone hoses would degrade due to the fluid flowing through them. Using an FKM liner minimizes the permeation, evaporation, and degradation of the silicone hose. HPS Performance FKM Lined Hose offers superior resistance to high temperatures, ozone, oxygen, mineral oil, synthetic hydraulic fluids, fuels, aromatics, and many organic solvents and chemicals. FKM can handle the occasional flow of ethanol-based fuels. Technical Specifications: Temperature Range: -65°F to +350°F (177°C). Maximum Operating Pressure (when used as a fuel line): 55 psi. Maximum Operating Pressure (other than fuel line): 90 psi. Hose ID: 5/16 inch (8mm). Hose OD: 5/8 inch (16mm). Length: 6 feet. Wall Thickness: 4mm +/- 0.2mm. Bend Radius: 1-1/4 inches. Recommended Applications for HPS Performance FKM Lined Silicone Hose: Fuel return, fuel ventilation, crankcase ventilation, turbo oil return, power steering return, automatic transmission oil cooler. Notes: Do not use the hose as a fuel line where the operating pressure exceeds 34 psi, and do not use it for continuous handling of alcohol fuels. Do not fully submerge the hose in fuel during use.
Before Ordering
〇 Regarding Import Consumption Tax
At the Shafutoya shopping site, we pay the import consumption tax incurred at the time of import on your behalf, so there are no additional charges beyond the total amount paid at checkout.
〇Confirmation of Compatibility
All product databases are based on North American vehicles (USDM), so please confirm whether the product can be installed on a Japanese vehicle (JDM) before ordering. (If you are unsure whether the listed product is compatible with your vehicle, please feel free to contact us. Our support team will investigate for you.)
If you order without confirming compatibility, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
Please note that even if products are sorted by selecting the year, manufacturer, and vehicle model on the tabs of our home page, this does not necessarily mean they are compatible with Japanese-market vehicle models without modification.
All products have been translated into Japanese using translation software. As there may be confusing expressions, please contact us with any questions before placing your order.
○ Regarding Shipping
Shipping costs are paid at the time of settlement. Estimates for shipping costs are automatically calculated when you enter your shipping address on the checkout page. For large items such as body parts, the actual shipping cost may occasionally differ significantly from the amount automatically calculated. In such cases, we will contact you individually via email.
In principle, all products are shipped internationally from our U.S. warehouse. Unlike domestic shipping in Japan, international shipping takes about 7 to 14 days, so please allow yourself enough time when ordering. If you are in a hurry, please contact us in advance to confirm the delivery date. Note that all products are transported by air freight. They are never shipped by sea freight.
○ Regarding Compliance with Japanese Vehicle Inspection (Shaken)
In principle, all products we handle are designed and manufactured outside of Japan. Please note that they are not compliant with the "Japanese Vehicle Inspection System," and we cannot provide strength calculation documents or similar paperwork for the Japanese inspection system. Therefore, all parts are sold for the purpose of "use on circuits, private land, or off-road," and installation and use are at your own risk.
○ Regarding Warranty
Please check the contents immediately upon arrival. As all products are shipped internationally from outside Japan, there may be shipping damage to the packaging or the product itself. We will handle returns, refunds, or replacement exchanges only if you contact us within 7 days of receipt regarding products with shipping damage, defective products, or products different from what was ordered. Please understand this. Furthermore, regarding products sold through us, we will handle warranty-related matters "exclusively through us." Please note that we do not handle matters through other companies or distributors located within Japan.
