FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

TORRANCE, Calif. (Feb. 10, 2005) - Now available from Russell Performance, a leader in advanced fluid transfer systems, are new ARB Air Locker stainless steel hose assemblies for off-road applications.

Exclusively from Russell, ARB Air Locker lines are a direct replacement for the plastic OEM hose which routes from the axle to solenoid valve. These stainless steel lines won't pinch, and deliver better performance due to their strength and increased psi rating. You'll get better braking performance and lines that look better than the plastic line, too.

The adapter kit consists of two ARB Air Locker fittings. The axle fitting a -3 AN male flare with a compression seat for use with a ferrule on the opposite end. The solenoid fitting has -3 AN male flare with a straight thread and O-ring seat on the opposite end. The O-ring is included with the solenoid fitting.

The universal lines are available in 5 foot and 12 foot lengths. Each hose assembly consists of a stainless steel braided line with -3 coupling nuts on both ends to accommodate the ARB Air Locker fittings. One end of the line has a strain relief sleeve to protect the hose near the crimp collar. This end is to be used with the axle fitting.
