High Temp Hose

silvapain · Mar 7, 2004

does anyone know where I can find some 3/8" ID flexible hose that will handle 600F consistently?

EGR tube is broken, and I don't want to spend $60 for a new one from the dealership. Also, with a 1/2" phenolic spacer in, a new tube wouldn't fit anyways.

See if you cn get some stainless steel braided hose from a plumbing supply or hardware store.

that hose is regular rubber covered in SS. It is only rated for 180F. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Yeah, but because of the phenolic spacer, the stock tube won't be long enough. That's why he wants to make his own with some high temp hose.

I ordered a new EGR tube from the dealership today. A new one should be flexible enough to make it. If not, I am going to cut and wled one that is long enough from the broken one and the new one. I looked everywhere, and couldn't find any hose that can handle that kind of sustained temperature.
