Automotive Hoses

Designed for fluid transfer and service applications across automotive and vehicle environments, with hose assemblies built for reliability, compatibility, and everyday workshop use.

Automotive Applications

Automotive and vehicle servicing applications require hose assemblies that are reliable, easy to handle, and compatible with a wide range of fluids and operating conditions. From routine maintenance to specialist systems, correct hose selection helps ensure safe operation and efficient servicing.

Typical applications include:

  • Fuel and oil transfer
  • Coolant and water circulation systems
  • Air and vacuum lines
  • Hydraulic and lubrication systems
  • Workshop fluid handling and servicing equipment
  • Vehicle maintenance and repair operations
  • Specialist, commercial, and off-highway vehicle applications

Each hose assembly can be specified to suit the application, with appropriate hose construction, fittings, and assembly methods selected to support dependable performance and long service life.

Automotive Hose Assembly Solutions

Automotive hose assemblies must be reliable, correctly specified, and easy to install or service. We supply complete hose assemblies built to suit automotive fluids, pressures, and operating conditions.

Assemblies are produced in-house using suitable hose types and fittings, swaged or clamped as required. Whether supporting routine maintenance or specialist vehicle applications, each assembly is specified and built for dependable performance.

Why These Hoses Are Used in Automotive Applications

Selecting the correct hose helps ensure safe operation and long service life in automotive systems. Important considerations include:

  • Compatibility with fuels, oils, coolants, and automotive fluids
  • Pressure and temperature performance
  • Flexibility for routing in confined engine bays
  • Resistance to vibration and movement
  • Secure coupling retention and leak prevention

All hose assemblies can be cut to length, assembled in-house, pressure tested where required, and supplied with identification where required.

Compatible Fittings & Accessories

Incorrect fittings can lead to leaks, inefficiency, or premature hose failure in automotive systems.

Common automotive fittings include:

  • Hose tails and adaptors
  • Threaded fittings (BSP, NPT, metric)
  • Quick-connect fittings
  • Clamps and clamp systems
  • Valves and connectors


Fittings can be supplied loose or fully assembled onto hoses, pressure tested, and supplied with identification where required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can hoses be supplied fully assembled?

Yes. We supply hoses fully assembled to your exact specification, ready for immediate installation and use.

Our in-house hose assembly service allows us to build complete hose assemblies to suit your application, including hose type, bore size, length, and end connections. Assemblies can be supplied with a wide range of fittings, adapters, and connectors, including threaded, flanged, camlock, hygienic, and specialist fittings.

Where required, we can also carry out custom fabrication and welding to create bespoke adapters or transitions for unusual or legacy systems. This ensures compatibility with existing pipework, machinery, or tanker connections, reducing downtime and installation issues.

Each assembly is produced by experienced technicians and checked to ensure it meets the demands of the intended application.

Do you offer pressure testing and certification?

Yes. Most hose assemblies are pressure tested and certified before dispatch.

We offer certified hydrostatic pressure testing using our dedicated water pressure testing equipment, providing documented confirmation that the assembly meets the required pressure rating. This is particularly important for safety-critical, regulated, or high-pressure applications.

In addition, most hose assemblies undergo standard pressure checks using our air pressure testing equipment as part of our quality control process.

Where required, we can supply supporting documentation such as:

  • Pressure test certificates
  • Material or compliance information
  • Application-specific certification

This gives you confidence that the assembly has been tested, verified, and supplied ready for service.

Can hoses be cut to length and fitted with customer-specified ends?

Yes. All hoses can be cut to order and supplied with customer-specified end fittings.

We cut hoses to your exact required length and fit them with the end connections needed for your system, whether that is threaded fittings, flanges, hygienic clamps, camlocks, or specialist connectors. This removes the need for on-site cutting or modification and ensures a clean, professional installation.

If you are unsure of the most suitable end fittings or configuration, our technical team can advise on the best options based on pressure, temperature, media, and installation constraints.

Custom lengths and fittings help minimise waste, reduce installation time, and ensure the hose assembly performs as intended in service.
