Hi Gang, I am just looking at various different types of hose to replace all my old vaccum pipes and just wondered if there is any pressure requirement? Just seeing if anyone has a psi rating for such hose?

| It is a vacuum, the only pressure will be the atmosphere trying to close the pipe (max. 1 bar), though it will be much less than this - so almost any oil/fuel resistant pipe should be suitable.
