Air hoses for carburetor preheat
As a specialist for hose assemblies around airplanes WMT also offers a single layered hose for carburetor preheat or heat systems.
With the order number SG1M this hose is available in all sizes. We stock it with the following diameters: 25mm(1″), 32mm(1,25″), 51mm(2″), 63mm(2,5″), 76(3″)mm and 89mm(3,5″).
As usual we help you within 2 days. In contrast to common hoses we use integral, vulcanised, wire-free cuffs at both ends. That helps the mechanic to put it easily on and make a safe connection. The wire mash is totally shielded and can´t tear of the end of the hose.
You just measure the length and the diameter of the hose – we do the rest.
Note
Only single layered hoses should be used for carburetor preheating. If a double layered hose is used the inner layer can be peeled of and get into the carburetor. That could cause a stop of the engine.
