attleej Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Dear All, Does anyone know where to get the wire armoured hose as fitted to the Antar, AEC militant and other vehicles of that era? I am at that stage with the Antar! John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvinthemartian Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Hi John, are the hoses not clamped together? My Martian brake hoses come apart, the clamps hold together both the connectors and the steel coil spring. I bought new hose from ebay, though I have seen someone selling armoured hose in lengths.

Hoseman Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Have you pics of the hose outside and cross section? Im a HYDRAULICS engineer and could identify it for you. Do you know internal dimensions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pc1959 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I bought rubber hose and ferrules from a truck air brake bit distributor and the spiral wire 'armour' from Pirtek. I think I posted a picture of my efforts a while ago, can't find it now :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJSB Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 John, try Hampshire hose under the Itchen Bridge in Southampton, they should be able to make it up. Toby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
