fuel hose

Pump-to-tank connector

A fuel hose is a flexible tube designed to transfer gasoline, diesel, or other fuels between containers, tanks, or engines.

Fuel hoses must resist degradation from petroleum products and are typically made of reinforced rubber or specialized synthetics.

The term covers everything from the hose at a gas station pump to lines running through a vehicle's fuel system: The mechanic replaced a cracked fuel hose.
