ContiTech Tubing: Engineered Precision for Demanding Fluid Systems

When it comes to keeping fluids moving reliably through an engine or drivetrain, the quality of the tubing matters just as much as the components it connects. ContiTech, the industrial and automotive products division of Continental AG, has earned a global reputation for engineering rubber and polymer solutions that meet the toughest OEM and aftermarket standards — and their tubing and hose products are no exception.

What Sets ContiTech Tubing Apart

Continental ContiTech is a global leader in industrial hose technology, and their tubing is engineered for strength, flexibility, and safety — providing reliable fluid and air transfer solutions across a wide range of applications. In the automotive world, this translates directly into tubing that holds up under the pressures and temperatures that modern engines generate.

ContiTech's oil line tubing is a standout example of the brand's engineering depth. For cooling engine oil, ContiTech offers high-temperature-resistant oil hoses for pressures of up to 15 bar, elastomer hoses for temperatures of up to 190°C, as well as plastic hoses made of Teflon corrugated tubing, polyester or fiberglass braid, and stainless steel outer braiding that can withstand temperatures of up to 230°C. That range of material options means technicians and builders can match exactly the right tubing spec to their application — whether it's a stock engine bay or a turbocharged build running hard.

Materials Built for Extreme Conditions

For turbocharger cooling applications, ContiTech uses materials and material combinations involving aluminum, steel, and EPDM. Their oil lines can be realized with a wide variety of materials including steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and polyamide. This multi-material approach ensures that every tubing solution offers the right blend of heat resistance, pressure tolerance, and corrosion protection for its intended environment.

For turbocharger lubrication, ContiTech offers a variety of tubing solutions rated for temperatures of up to +400°C — a testament to the engineering rigor that goes into every product line. Whether the demand is for a molded replacement hose or bulk tubing sold by the meter, ContiTech's portfolio covers both approaches.
