S.U.R.&.R. Auto Duct Tape
About S.U.R.&R. Auto
Founded in 2000 by automotive repair shop owner Joseph Wathey, S.U.R.&R. Auto Parts Inc. was born out of a real-world need felt on the shop floor. Wathey understood firsthand the frustrations mechanics faced when dealing with damaged fluid lines, and set out to create repair solutions that were not only reliable, but genuinely easy to use. What began as a small venture focused on fuel sending unit repairs quickly grew into one of the automotive aftermarket's most respected names in fluid line repair technology.
Headquartered in Akron, Ohio, S.U.R.&R. operates as a division of Husky Corporation — a company synonymous with dependable, professionally-grade equipment. That pedigree is reflected in every S.U.R.&R. product: built to meet or exceed OEM specifications, compatible with both domestic and foreign vehicles, and backed by a warranty designed to ensure complete installer satisfaction.
Fluid Line Repair Solutions That Go the Distance
S.U.R.&R.'s core strength lies in its comprehensive catalog of fluid line repair kits. The lineup spans virtually every fluid system in a modern vehicle — brakes, fuel, air conditioning, power steering, coolant, and transmission. A standout in the lineup is S.U.R.&R.'s Brake Hydraulic Line tubing, which features the brand's proprietary UltraBEND® technology. This flexible tubing is engineered for easy routing and kink-free installation, helping technicians complete brake line jobs faster and with greater confidence.
For fuel system work, S.U.R.&R. offers professional-grade Fuel Injector Tools designed to clean and service fuel injection systems efficiently — a must-have for shops that service a high volume of modern fuel-injected vehicles. Paired with the brand's dedicated Fuel Testers, technicians have everything needed to diagnose and address fuel pressure and delivery issues quickly and accurately.
Specialty Tools Built for the Working Technician
Beyond fluid line kits, S.U.R.&R. has built a strong reputation for its lineup of specialty tools designed to simplify everyday repair tasks. Their Double Flaring Tools — including hydraulic-assist models — are particularly well-regarded, enabling technicians to produce clean, OEM-quality single, double, and bubble flares on a wide range of tubing sizes. These tools are engineered for speed and repeatability, whether working on the bench or directly on the vehicle.
Rounding out the catalog, S.U.R.&R.'s A/C Refrigerant Hose Fittings bring the same install-friendly philosophy to air conditioning repairs. Designed for tool-free connections, these fittings simplify A/C line service without sacrificing the integrity of the repair.
