401 Series Blue push lock hose features nitrile rubber construction with excellent bend radius, designed for low pressure applications with compatible hose fittings across various temperature range conditions.
Hit the sweet spot between ease of installation and high performance with the RHP 401 series hoses. Engineered for use with our 2000 series hose ends, RHP 401 series hoses deliver great performance and can be assembled in minutes. RHP 401 series hoses contain a fully e85 compatible inner tube, a braided layer of tough nylon mesh and a smooth outer cover. With a max working pressure of 300psi, the RHP 402 Series hoses are not recommended for high pressure applications or suction systems. For best results assemble with our 420 Series Push Lock Hose Clamps and 5420-1 push lock hose clamp pliers.
Note: Our 402 Series hose is rated for temperatures up to 212F (100C). If you are thinking of running the hose near a heat source we recommend applying some of our 244 Series fire sleeve over the line. Our 244 Series heat sleeve is good to withstand continuous working temperatures up to 500°F.
Available in 3', 6', 10' 15', 20' and 50' precut lengths

Push Lock Hoses for Easy, Tool-Free Connections
Push lock hose technology revolutionizes system installation by eliminating the need for special tools or clamps when connecting to compatible hose fittings. This innovative push lock system allows instant connections that maintain reliable sealing under appropriate working pressures. The nitrile rubber construction provides excellent flexibility with superior bend radius characteristics, making routing simple even in tight spaces. Designed for low pressure applications, this lock hose performs reliably across a wide temperature range while handling fluids like mineral oil with ease. The push lock fuel hose design ensures secure connections that won't slip or leak, making it ideal for applications where quick installation and reliable performance are essential priorities.
Flexible and Durable for Fuel, Oil, and Air Lines
Our push lock hose excels in diverse fluid transfer applications, from fuel systems to air lines, thanks to its robust nitrile rubber construction that withstands various chemicals including mineral oil. The superior bend radius allows flexible routing without kinking, while the push lock design works seamlessly with standard hose fittings for reliable connections. Engineered for specific working pressures and temperature range requirements, this lock hose delivers consistent performance across multiple applications. The push lock fuel hose configuration is particularly effective for low pressure fuel systems where ease of installation is crucial. This versatile hose maintains structural integrity while providing the flexibility needed for complex installations requiring reliable, long-term service.
Frequently Asked Question
What is a push lock hose?
Push lock hose is a specialized hose design featuring internal barbs that secure connections to hose fittings without clamps. Made from nitrile rubber, this lock hose provides excellent bend radius and operates effectively within specific working pressures and temperature range limits. Push lock fuel hose applications benefit from quick installation for low pressure systems handling fuels and mineral oil.
How to remove hose from push lock fitting?
To remove push lock hose from hose fittings, carefully twist while pulling to release the internal barbs' grip. The nitrile rubber construction allows controlled removal without damaging the lock hose. For push lock fuel hose applications, ensure system pressure is relieved before removal. The flexible bend radius design facilitates easier removal from tight spaces.
Does push lock hose need a clamp?
No, push lock hose design eliminates the need for clamps when properly matched with compatible hose fittings. The nitrile rubber construction with internal barbs provides secure connections within rated working pressures and temperature range specifications. However, push lock fuel hose installations in high-vibration applications may benefit from additional securing for enhanced reliability in low pressure systems.
Which is better push lock hose or fuel hose?
Push lock fuel hose offers installation advantages for low pressure applications, while traditional fuel hose may suit higher working pressures. Push lock hose with nitrile rubber construction provides excellent bend radius and works well with standard hose fittings. The choice depends on specific temperature range requirements, pressure needs, and whether you're handling mineral oil or other fluids.
