RACE SPECFLO Supply Performance Plumbing

Performance plumbing without the hype

Why builders choose FLO Supply

The right plumbing is chosen by application—not by the loudest claim. FLO Supply gives racers, builders, and fabricators the hose, fittings, adapters, and supporting hardware needed to plan a connected system around real pressure, temperature, fluid, routing, and service requirements.

Performance plumbing for racers and builders

Objective advantages

What sets FLO Supply apart?

A serious performance-plumbing line should help you connect, route, secure, service, and finish the complete system—not just sell you one common adapter.

01

Broad system coverage

FLO Supply spans AN adapters, hose, reusable and crimp ends, bulkheads, clamps, fuel-delivery parts, CO₂ components, valves, tanks, tools, and fabrication hardware.

02

Application-focused options

Select components around the fluid, pressure, temperature, connection type, hose size, and routing needs of the vehicle. Always verify the individual product specifications.

03

Reusable or crimped

Choose compatible reusable hose ends for properly planned assemblies or order measured crimped hose assemblies built for applications that require a professional crimp.

04

Performance materials

Many FLO aluminum fittings use 6061 aluminum with an anodized finish. Materials vary by product, so confirm the construction, seal material, and liner for your application.

05

Real technical support

Sales and technical-support staff can help identify thread types, select compatible hose and ends, plan a system, and troubleshoot an installation.

06

Product support

Eligible Nitro Dave's product lines include a limited 90-day warranty against defects in material or workmanship. Review the complete policy and application requirements before purchasing.

More than fittings

Race plumbing tech inspection

How to evaluate performance plumbing

A reliable race-car plumbing system begins with the specifications of the complete assembly. Use these requirements to evaluate FLO Supply hose, fittings, adapters, seals, and supporting hardware for your vehicle.

InspectWhy it matters
Hose constructionPTFE and synthetic-rubber liners differ in fuel compatibility, permeation, flexibility, temperature capability, and intended service.
Fluid compatibilityGasoline, E85, methanol, oil, coolant, brake fluid, air, CO₂, and nitrous may require different hose, fitting, and seal materials.
Working pressureRatings can change by hose construction, hose size, end design, assembly method, temperature, and manufacturer.
Temperature rangeUnderhood heat and fluid temperature must remain inside the limits published for every component in the assembly.
Fitting designMaterial, angle, bend radius, machining, sealing method, and overall dimensions affect routing and serviceability.
ConfigurationsStraight and angled ends, adapters, reducers, tees, bulkheads, and specialty connections determine whether a system can be routed cleanly.
Assembly methodReusable, push-on, and crimped systems use different hose, ends, tools, and installation procedures. Components must be designed to work together.
System breadthA broad catalog makes it easier to source related adapters, clamps, valves, filters, tools, and service parts from a connected line.
Support & availabilityCorrect guidance and accessible replacement components can matter when a vehicle is being built, repaired, or serviced at the track.

Build one connected FLO Supply system.

FLO Supply helps builders plan around hose construction, reusable or crimped ends, AN sizes, fitting angles, adapters, valves, mounting hardware, and application guidance. The correct combination is the one whose published specifications match the fluid, pressure, temperature, routing, and service requirements of the vehicle.

Performance plumbing FAQ

Choose the right AN hose and fittings.

Planning race-car plumbing starts with the application. Before choosing FLO Supply AN fittings, PTFE hose, reusable hose ends, or a custom crimped hose assembly, identify the fluid, operating pressure, temperature, hose size, thread type, routing, and service requirements.

FLO Supply performance plumbing can support fuel-system, oil, coolant, air, vacuum, CO₂, nitrous, catch-can, and fabrication projects when every component is selected according to its published specifications.

What are AN fittings used for?

AN fittings are threaded fluid connections commonly used in automotive and racing plumbing. Depending on their design and specifications, they may be used in fuel, oil, coolant, air, vacuum, CO₂, nitrous, and other performance systems. The hose, fitting, adapter, and seal must all be compatible with the application.

What is the difference between PTFE and rubber-lined hose?

PTFE-lined hose and synthetic-rubber-lined hose differ in flexibility, vapor permeation, temperature range, pressure capability, and fluid compatibility. PTFE is often considered for modern fuels and demanding performance plumbing, but the exact hose specification—not the liner name alone—must determine suitability.

Should I use reusable or crimped hose ends?

Reusable AN hose ends can be assembled and serviced with the correct compatible hose and tools. Crimped hose assemblies use dedicated ends, collars, dies, and crimp specifications. FLO custom crimped hoses are assembled in the shop to the measurements and configuration selected by the customer.

How do I measure a custom crimped hose?

Measure the completed assembly using the required end-to-end reference for the selected fittings, then confirm hose size, length, fitting angle, clocking, and connection type. Measure the vehicle routing before ordering and avoid forcing the hose below its allowed bend radius.

Can FLO Supply hose be used for E85 or methanol?

Fluid compatibility depends on the exact hose liner, outer construction, fittings, seals, temperature, and pressure. Do not assume every FLO hose or fitting is universally compatible. Confirm the specifications for the individual products before using E85, methanol, gasoline, oil, coolant, or another fluid.

What should I check before ordering FLO performance plumbing?

Confirm hose construction, fluid compatibility, working pressure, temperature range, available AN size, fitting angles, assembly method, routing, bend radius, and connection types. Contact FLO Supply technical support when an application requires additional guidance.

Build it right the first time

The right setup starts with the right specifications.

Start with your fluid, pressure, temperature, hose size, fitting angles, routing, and assembly method—then build a FLO Supply plumbing system designed around the vehicle.

Build around the application.

Start with the fluid, operating conditions, hose size, connection types, bend angles, and assembly method. Then choose components designed to work together.
