Fuel lines rupturing can be extremely dangerous in many ways, none more than the risk of fire.
We can provide a protective sleeve that will cover the line and be secured at the highest point of the line and loose on the bottom.

The fuel will be suppressed within the protective sleeve and run down to the low point away from hot surfaces. (Price per meter).
