Default Socketless push lock hose ends

Anybody using socketless push lock hose ends (Aeroquip,Earls,Mocal...) for either oil or fuel lines? I was just wondering if it was good to use for oil lines instead of reusable ends or crimped ends. Thanks.

I have been using it for years. Use it for fuel and oil and water. I usually use the black braided cloth and at times the blue jacket. In high pressure situations as a safe gueard will use the clamps as supplied by XRP. Usually use Aeroquip hose and ends. Never had any problems.

They are used all over my engine. I think they are good up 200+ psi. You'll see the first time you make a mistake and "try" to get one off!!

if you get the "soft Jaw " vice tool it really helps hold the ends without damage and makes it alot easier to push them on ........m
