Goodyear Engineered Products has introduced its most versatile transfer hose to handle many fuel types. Flexwing VersaFuel transfer hose meets the needs of expanding alternative fuel markets and conventional fuel markets.

VersaFuel is used in tank truck and plant operations to transfer diesel, gasoline, oil, biodiesel, and ethanol blends, as well as petroleum-based products with up to 60 percent aromatic content.

Its outside cover resists degradation from fuel blends and is abrasion-resistant. The inner tube material helps resist swelling, softening, or cracking alternative fuels may cause. Its helix wire reinforcement reduces the risk of collapse, permitting VersaFuel to also be used for full vacuum applications.

VersaFuel's construction is designed to withstand extreme cold and heat. It operates at temperatures ranging from -30° to 180° F, permitting use during all seasons and eliminating any outdoor storage concerns.

The hose is stocked in 100-foot lengths and seven diameters from one to four inches.
