Straight silicone coolant hose, 13 mm bore. For the coolant runs in a conversion that carry real flow.
Silicone is the right material for a coolant hose that has to last. Rubber hose hardens, cracks and eventually splits after years of heat cycling. Silicone stays flexible across a much wider temperature range and does not perish in the same way, which matters on a vehicle where a burst coolant hose means a battery or a drive unit losing its cooling.
Straight rather than moulded means it can be cut to whatever length a run needs. A moulded hose fits one path exactly and nothing else; straight hose plus the right bends is how you plumb a system nobody made a hose kit for, which is every conversion.
13 mm bore is a real coolant line, not small bore push fit tube. This is the size for a battery or motor loop carrying pump flow.

Silicone is not suitable for oil or fuel. It swells and softens in contact with mineral oil, so a drive unit's oil circuit needs oil rated hose instead.
Use proper hose clips and support long runs. Silicone is flexible, which is a virtue in routing and a liability if a long span is left to hang: it will chafe wherever it touches.
Ask us for the wall thickness, length and pressure rating before ordering. None is published here.
