Made from FDA-compliant food-grade silicone, the hose resists kinking and collapse while offering wide temperature tolerance and strong burst resistance. Whether replacing brittle factory vacuum lines or building custom boost plumbing, this tubing balances pliability, durability, and chemical neutrality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this tubing stay stable under vacuum and pressure?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tube’s 3 mm wall thickness and silicone compound prevent collapse when exposed to vacuum and partial vacuum conditions. Rated working pressure and burst pressure figures indicate safety margins for typical shop and engine bay environments, and the material keeps its form across broad temperatures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInner diameter: 4 mm (5\/32\").\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOuter diameter: 10 mm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWall thickness: 3 mm to resist collapse under vacuum.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorking pressure: 43 PSI; burst: up to 130 PSI at room temperature.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this hose survive extreme engine bay heat and cold starts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The silicone formulation tolerates a wide temperature range so it remains flexible in winter and won’t soften excessively near hot components.

EVIL ENERGY’s 5\/32\" silicone vacuum tubing suits automotive enthusiasts, tuners, and technicians who need a flexible, heat-tolerant vacuum or boost line for performance or maintenance tasks. It’s also useful for hobbyists, lab setups, and light industrial applications where a small-diameter, durable silicone hose with FDA-grade material and reliable pressure ratings is required. If you need a collapse-resistant 4 mm inner diameter hose that stays flexible across harsh temperatures and can be trimmed to custom lengths, this tube fits the bill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Can I use this hose for turbo boost control?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes.
