Thermal insulation for water hoses... where to buy?

Postby Grrrrrrr! » Sat Nov 26, 2011 5:04 pm

Just about to finish putting the 3SGTE back together, but need to source some replacement thermal insulation sleeving for the water & oil hoses behind the turbo.. anybody know who sells it?

Flexible technologies have a few types of braiding that would be suitable for the purpose, give them a call/email (techflex.co.nz I think)

does the sleeving come with the HFH? I thought it'd just be the hose itself?

Comes ready to go with the sleeve and even has hose clips ready to go as well. You just snip a piece and they lock. OEM FTW.
