The difference in the fuel tubing is that the Saito is Neoprene and the EVO fuel tubing is a fluorocarbon (FKM) rubber. The applications are very similar, but the fluorocarbon has a better resistance to heat and gasoline. Neoprene tends to swell more than FKM but in general they have very similar characteristics. We have found in testing that the FKM was a better solution for fuel setups.

As for the size, they are very close if not the same.

You can use both for the same application.

Hope this helps,
Jimmy

Pete,

What is the difference in the two black rubber fuel tubing you sell:

SAIG36155 - Fuel tubing, gas, durable

EVOA102 - FKM medium fuel tubing

Are they the same material and size? Should they be used for different applications?
