per Feet (USD)Conductive PTFE Hose, Stainless Braid, -10 AN
0.500" (12.7 mm) inside diameter. 1500 psi operating, 6000 psi burst. Conductive liner for fuel.
The Racetronix TFT1170-10 is -10 AN PTFE (Teflon) hose: a smooth-bore PTFE liner, conductive (static dissipative) and 300 series stainless steel wire braid.
It takes Racetronix reusable and crimp PTFE hose ends, and industry-standard smooth-bore PTFE hose ends from other makers. The charts near the bottom of this page list every Racetronix hose end that fits -10 PTFE hose. The same size is also available as TFT1170-10B (conductive, black jacket).
Key features
- -10 AN: 0.500" (12.7 mm) inside diameter.
- 1500 psi operating pressure, 6000 psi burst.
- Conductive (static dissipative) PTFE liner for fuel.
- 300 series stainless steel wire braid.
- Temperature range -65°F to 450°F continuous.
- Meets or exceeds SAE 100R14.
Fuel moving fast through a hose builds a static charge on a plain PTFE liner. If the charge is not carried away, it can arc through the liner to the braid and pinhole the hose. The TFT1170 liner is conductive, so the charge drains to the hose ends instead. That is why we recommend conductive PTFE hose for fuel lines, and why it is the hose we use in our Buick fuel line kits.

Making a hose assembly
Wrap the cut mark in masking tape and cut the hose square with a thin cutting disc. Leave the tape on while you push the hose into the nut, so the braid does not fray. Spread the braid so the ferrule (olive) sits between the braid and the PTFE liner, make sure no braid wires are trapped under the ferrule, then thread the fitting into the nut with an aluminum AN wrench. A small gap between the hexes is normal. Full steps are on each hose end page.

EFI quick-connect hose ends do not swivel: the angle is fixed to the hose end. Once connected, a male quick-connect can still turn inside the female, because the joint seals on O-rings and is held by a retainer. The Crescent-Lock versions add a Crescent-Lock retainer on the quick-connect.

Frequently asked questions
Is it E85 compatible?
Yes. PTFE resists ethanol, E85, race fuels and the solvents in today’s gasoline, and it is essentially impermeable to fuel, so it does not swell, soften or let fuel vapour through the way rubber hose can.
Do I need conductive hose?
For fuel lines, we recommend it. Fuel flowing through a plain PTFE liner builds a static charge that can arc to the braid and pinhole the hose; a conductive liner drains it away. For oil, coolant, brake and similar lines, non-conductive PTFE hose is fine.
Which hose ends fit it?
Racetronix reusable and crimp PTFE hose ends for -10 hose (see the charts above), and industry-standard smooth-bore PTFE hose ends from other makers. Rubber hose ends and push-lock fittings do not fit PTFE hose.
Is it CARB certified?
We do not sell it as CARB certified. Certification applies to a tested, finished hose assembly, and our hose is assembled by the customer.
How do I cut it?
Wrap the cut in masking tape and cut square with a thin cutting disc, then check that no braid wires are frayed or pushed into the liner.
