EVIL ENERGY 5/16-inch High-Pressure Fuel Hose 5 ft — 500 PSI, E85-Compatible NBR Rubber Black

EVIL ENERGY's 5/16" high-pressure fuel line is a 5-foot, 500 PSI-rated NBR hose built and reinforced for safe use with gasoline, E85 blends, diesel, biodiesel and many oils.

If you need a durable replacement or upgrade fuel line for engines, pumps or hydraulic feed systems, this hose combines a nitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR) inner/outer construction with a polyester braid to resist oil, abrasion and flexing over a wide temperature range. It conforms to EN854-1TE push-lock style standards and is sized for common automotive and small-engine fittings.

Will this hose handle high pressures and extreme temperatures?

Yes. The hose is engineered for demanding operating conditions: its rated working pressure is 500 PSI and the burst pressure is substantially higher, offering a broad safety margin. The material and reinforcement also tolerate cold starts and hot-running environments.

• Working pressure: 500 PSI
• Burst pressure: 1720 PSI
• Temperature range: -40°F to 212°F
• Minimum bend radius: 75 mm for correct routing

Is this hose compatible with E85 and other fuels?

The EVIL ENERGY hose uses double-layer NBR, a fuel-resistant rubber compound, paired with a polyester braid for mechanical strength. This combination is compatible with gasoline, E85 ethanol blends, diesel, biodiesel, hydraulic oils and many lubricants, making it suitable for mixed-fuel applications.

• Material: double-layer NBR (nitrile rubber)
• Reinforcement: polyester fiber braid
• Suitable media: E85, gasoline, diesel, biodiesel, hydraulic oil, grease
• Not intended for strong acids or incompatible solvents—verify fluid compatibility

What are the hose dimensions and how does it connect to my system?

The hose has a 5/16" internal diameter (approximately 8 mm) and an outer diameter near 0.59" (about 15.1 mm), provided in a convenient 5-foot length for cuts-to-fit installations. It is designed for push-on or clamp-style fittings commonly found on fuel rails, carburetors, fuel pumps and oil systems that accept EN854-style hoses.

• Inner diameter (ID): 5/16" (8 mm)
• Outer diameter (OD): 0.59" (15.1 mm)
• Length: 5 ft (cut to length as needed)
• Installation: use approved clamps or fittings rated for fuel service

How long will the hose last and where should I use it?

The combination of oil-resistant NBR and a polyester braid gives a long service life when installed correctly and protected from sharp edges, excessive heat and incompatible chemicals. It is intended for fuel delivery, engine lubrication lines, oil pump inlets, engine filtration connections and similar applications where a reinforced fuel hose is required.

• Common uses: fuel systems, engine lubrication, oil pump inlets, hydraulic feed lines
• Durability: abrasion and oil resistance from NBR outer layer
• Maintenance: inspect clamps and routing periodically for chafing or leaks
• Standards: manufactured to EN854-1TE push-lock style expectations

Who this is for: mechanics, restorers, performance tuners and DIYers who need a reliable, ethanol-compatible fuel hose for automotive or small-engine projects. If you require a flexible, oil-resistant line with a 5/16" ID, 5-foot length and 500 PSI working pressure that meets EN854-style usage, this EVIL ENERGY hose is a practical, cost-effective choice.
