For more than half a century, Mr. Gasket has been the go-to source for racers, offering
a full line of gaskets, fasteners, and more.
Mr. Gasket's ever-expanding line of plumbing products continues this tradition with high-quality
hoses, hose ends, adapters, and even installation tools.
Today we're looking at different styles of Mr. Gasket hoses available and when to choose
one over the other for your project.
Offered in black nylon braided, stainless steel braided, and synthetic rubber push on,
each hose has it's own distinct advantages and applications.
All are high-quality hoses and are readily available solutions for your off-season projects
or maintenance that won't break the bank.
A good rule of thumb when choosing the hose for your particular project is to first make
sure to select one with the correct pressure and fluid compatibility, then choose based
on appearance and price.
With that in mind, let's get a look at all the different styles available for Mr. Gasket
and take some of the guesswork out of your plumbing project.
Mr. Gasket's black nylon braided hose has a special inner liner which makes it more
resistant to fuels than most synthetic rubber AN hoses and it's lighter than traditional
stainless braided hose.
It is designed for use with Mr. Gasket's swivel style hose ends and is available in 6AN, 8AN,
10AN, and 12AN sizes.
It comes packaged in three foot, six foot, ten foot, or twenty-foot lengths and can handle
a maximum of 350 PSI.
It can be used with automatic transmission fluid, coolant, diesel, E85, pump, or race
gas and oil too, and has a temperature range of -40 degrees to 302 degrees Fahrenheit.
The classic black nylon braided outer looks clean in any install and matches most other
brands of plumbing as well.
And when it comes to installation, it's easy to cut and it won't scratch or mar pained
or polished surfaces that it may come into contact with.
Mr. Gasket's stainless steel braided hose has similar benefits of our black nylon braided
hose but with a tough stainless steel outer liner.
While weighing a bit more than braided nylon, a stainless steel outer will take a bit more
abuse in the event of chaffing or when subjected to higher heat and has been proven tough and
reliable for years in the harshest of racing environments.
Also available in 6AN, 8AN, 10AN, and 12AN sizes, it too comes packaged in 3, 6, 10,
and 20-foot lengths and has a maximum working pressure of 350 PSI.
Mr. Gasket's stainless steel braided AN hoses are recommended for use with coolant, automatic
transmission fluid, diesel, and race gas, and has a temperature range of -40 degrees
to 302 degrees Farenheight.
Mr. Gasket's black push on hose is manufactured from synthetic rubber with a re-enforced fiber
braid.
This hose is a great choice if you are finishing up an engine swap, in your driver, or performing
some winter maintenance.
While it has a lower working PSI than Mr. Gasket's black nylon or stainless steel braided
hose, the push on hose offers the advantage of being easy to install using Mr. Gasket
push on hose ends.
The textured surface offers great grip even if your hands happen to come into contact
with the assembly lube.
Offered in 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 AN sizes it also comes in 3 foot, 6 foot, 10 foot, and
20-foot lengths.
Mr. Gasket push on hoses are recommended for use with automatic transmission fluid, coolant,
and oil.
The working temperature range is -40 degrees to 250 degrees Farenheight.
With a maximum working pressure of 250 PSI.
Knowing what hose to use with your project is a great first step in making things go
smoothly and ensure reliability.
Be sure to use the recommended fittings, assembly lube, and tools for your selected hose.
