SMOOTH BORE
There are no convolutions on the inside where they can impede flow by causing turbulence and trapping contamination that can be very difficult to remove.
EASY CLEAN OUT
The smooth inside bore allows non-turbulent laminar flow capabilities and a hose assembly that can be cleaned out much easier than fully convoluted hoses.
ANTI-STATIC PTFE
A hose system utilizing a carbon impregnated anti-static PTFE inner tube that is manufactured using a patented process that creates a smooth interior wall surface and convolutions only on the outside of the tube wall where they belong for increased flexibility and vacuum resistance.
The PLUS sizes allow even larger I.D. hose options between normal size ranges to choose from.
Actual hose I.D.’s are larger than indicated fractional dimensions above. (see technical chart below.)
A CHOICE OF BRAID OPTIONS:
- XS- Stainless Steel (may be used for dry sump vacuum applications)
- XM- Lightweight XtraTemp Monofilament (may be used inside fuel cells)
- XK- Aramid Fiber
- XKS – Aramid Fiber with Black Silicone Cover
- XT- Tube only (no braid) for use inside fuel cells and vent lines
XM, XK, XKS and XT options should not be used in high temperature
vacuum applications.
Use XRP ProPLUS Xtreme for these applications when lightweight
braid is needed.

FLUID COMPATIBILITY
The anti-static PTFE tube is compatible with all automotive fluids and fuels including:
- Racing Gasoline
- Ethanol
- Methanol
- Nitromethane
- Flex-Fuel blends
XRP® ProPLUS Race Hose™ is much more resistant to permeation of liquids or gases than other PTFE hose products, due to its highly compressed, non-porous PTFE matrix.
OPERATING TEMPERATURES
Operating Temperature of ProPLUS XS -65º F to +500º F.
Maximum Operating Pressure is reduced at temperatures over 160º C (320º F).
ProPLUS XS is fully vacuum resistant up to 130º C (266º F).
Consult with XRP, Inc. for information about vacuum reduction above these temperatures and for performance specifications on other braid coverings.
A CHOICE OF BRAID OPTIONS:
- XS- Stainless Steel (may be used for dry sump vacuum applications)
- XM- Lightweight XtraTemp Monofilament (may be used inside fuel cells)
- XK- Aramid Fiber
- XKS – Aramid Fiber with Black Silicone Cover
- XT- Tube only (no braid) for use inside fuel cells and vent lines
XM, XK, XKS and XT options should not be used in high temperature vacuum applications.
—-Use XRP ProPLUS Xtreme for these applications when lightweight braid is needed.
XS BRAIDS
– The Maximum Operating Pressure listed in the table should be reduced by 1% for each 1º C above 160º C (1% for each 1.8º F above 320º F) up to a maximum of 260º C (500º F).
Both ProPLUS and ProPLUS Xtreme Race Hose with Stainless Steel braid may be used for dry sump vacuum applications.
XM AND XK BRAIDS
– The Maximum Operating Pressure listed in the table should be reduced by 1% for each 1º C above 130º C (1% for each 1.8º F above 266º F) up to a maximum of 180º C (356º F).
Standard ProPLUS Race Hose in XM and XK braids should not be used on vacuum applications.
Use XRP ProPLUS Xtreme for these applications when lightweight braid is needed.
