Is the Blue 90° ER Silicone Reducer Elbow with Polyester Reinforcement suitable for use with oil-containing air or only for clean air and coolant fluids?

The Blue 90° ER Silicone Reducer Elbow with Polyester Reinforcement is suitable for use with water, coolant fluids, clean air, and air containing minimal oil mist. It is not recommended for applications involving oils, fuels, or air with higher oil content; for those uses a specialized version with a fluorosilicone inner layer is advised to ensure maximum oil resistance.

Can the Blue 90° ER Silicone Reducer Elbow with Polyester Reinforcement be used with fuels or high-oil-content fluids, or is the fluorosilicone-lined version required?

No — the Blue 90° ER Silicone Reducer Elbow with Polyester Reinforcement is intended for water, coolant fluids, clean air, or air with only minimal oil mist. For applications involving fuels, oils, or fluids with higher oil content, the fluorosilicone-lined version is required to provide the necessary chemical resistance and long-term durability.
