Cheap Silicone Hose Suppliers
In the next week or so I'm going to need to buy some 90degree bends of silicone coolant hose, wheres the best place to shop. I don't
necessarily need it to be Samco a cheaper alternative will do but would prefer it to be blue in colour. Any suggestions welcome

I got mine from Burton Power.
Blue SFS stuff, no complaints with it and as I recall it was reasonably priced too!

Got all mine from here: "ZENA Racing"
Cant fault the service and quality is almost as good as Samco without the price

If you do end up finding a cheap supplier, post it up here - I'm looking for 2 rubber 90-degree bends, but I think I'll end up with
silicone.
Trouble is, by the time you've added postage and vodka-and-tonic you can say goodby to £20. Just for 2 bits of bent tubing.

Hi
I haven't used them yet but http://www.venairsport.co.uk seems to be the cheapest around (that I could find anyway). They have an ebay shop as
well under the name "Auto Performance Silicone Hoses".

All the ones suggested so far end up with roughly the same price.
For example, the last one had what I wanted at quite a low price - around £7.50 each - but then there's £4.45 P&P and VAT. Guess what? Back
to around £25!
This is why I was looking for a rubber hose with two 90-degree bends...
