The main issue when dealing with aluminum tubing (or any aluminum for that matter) is that it “work hardens” when it flexes, which can lead to cracks. It is important that the hard line is isolated from vibration and movement.
Clamp the tubing securely with rubber coated clamps (Adel clamps) and use bulkhead fittings where the tubing attaches to the flex line. Never run the tubing directly to the engine without a flexible hose section. If installed properly, aluminum tubing is safe and durable.
This was an easy product to work with. Took no time at all to install.
The fuel line works grea!!
PRODUCT WAS EASY TO BEND AND FLARE, LOOKED GREAT TOO. I STARTED USING STEEL LINE , BUT SMALL SECTIONS TO BEND WERE DIFFICULT. THIS ALUMINUM LINE BENDS GREAT AND WILL LOOK BETTER LONGER. I USED A 37 DEGREE FLARING TOOL AND AN6 FITTINGS FOR A FUEL LINE FROM THE BOOTOM OF THE FUEL TANK TO THE INLET OF FUEL FILTER AND CAME OUT GREAT.

Suprisingly maleable making it very easy to form and flare.

is their a fitting to go from aluminum line to hose, or is ok to slide the hose over and clamp?

I would not clamp hose to aluminum line, there is no barbs to help hose from slipping off. I would use 61763921 and then part #1061222.

I wanted to make sure this supports 250psi, I read other places that aluminum is good for only up to 25 psi.

This lines is rated up to 250PSI. Not recommended for high pressure applications.

You state this fuel line is OK up to 250psi , and then state not suitable for high pressure ??? I need it for fuel feed from a 120psi pump to a 450hp LS1 engine , and people seem contradictory as to its suitability ?? please reply

This aluminum line is OK up to 250 psi so your 120 psi requirement is well covered. We recommend the 37 degree flare with the appropriate tube nuts and sleeves for a secure fitting at the higher pressures. The aluminum line is NOT recommended for high pressure applications such as brake lines where pressures as high as 1200-1400 psi are common. In those cases a steel or stainless line is recommended.

Does anyone know if this tubing is safe to use for natural gas? I have an existing gas log set that is connected to a remote gas valve using aluminum tubing. Just need to move the gas valve over and as a result need to run new tubing to the log set. The existing tubing is 3/8 OD. I think this is the same, but would appreciate confirmation, if anyone knows. Thanks

Part # 91011429 This aluminum fuel line will handle up to 250 psi which is more than sufficient for your natural gas application and should work fine. It can be 37 degree flared or used with the standard compression fittings.
