Flexfab 5508-225X12, 2.25" x 12 ft, Wire Reinforced Silicone Coolant Hose, 57mm

Hold a tight, leak-free seal even under vacuum and forced bends with the Flexfab 5508-225X12 wire-reinforced silicone coolant hose. A helical wire embedded in the wall lets this 2.25" ID hose route around obstacles and resist collapse on the suction side — built for heavy-duty coolant and vacuum connections across diesel, automotive, marine, agricultural, and industrial cooling systems.

Why this Flexfab wire-reinforced coolant hose

• Helical wire construction — withstands up to 10 PSI negative (vacuum) pressure and allows forced curvature, which means it routes tight bends without kinking or collapsing.
• 2-ply polyester reinforcement — 400 PSI actual burst rating gives a wide margin over the ~133 PSI working pressure of most cooling systems.
• −65°F to +350°F range — silicone stays flexible in cold and holds up to under-hood heat without hardening or cracking.
• Meets SAE J20 R2 Class A — spec-grade heavy-duty coolant hose performance.
• 2.25" (57mm) ID × 2.67" (68mm) OD, 5.5" min bend radius — sized for demanding routing.

Supplied as a 12-foot stick, this hose suits turbo, intake, and coolant runs where ordinary hose would collapse under suction.
