I know they have been on the market for a while now, but I’m thinking of changing all of my hose and fittings to this style. Is one company head and shoulders above the rest, or are they all about the same now?

Well I know for certain that Fragola is made right in Connecticut.
Godd old MADE IN USA.

IMO Fragola is the best stuff out there and made in USA!

Fragola is great stuff but some of the other popular brands are made in China. Pay particular attention to the hose itself. Don't fall for the "it looks the same" or the "its just as good" BS. Todd

iagree
I switch to Fragola SS after buying and using their #8 PTFE SS cover fuel line, it is way better to work with than any other brands I've work with so far.
I have a hard time getting their black hose to slide all the way on the bigger hose fittings,#10 and #12, for oil systems, hopefully I'll figure it out or maybe some one on here can help me on this luck grin

I have the flare lapping tool and it is awesome for brake lines.
As usual, it only takes money lol

I used Fragola on my engine & what Frsgola didnt have, I used Aeroflow. Just have make sure you use the correct range of fittings to match the black race hose. It's quite a weight saving over braided lines.

Another happy Fragola customer here. I think Aeroquips threads might be cut a little smoother but I only buy them if he local shop doesn't have the Fragola fitting I need. The Fragola hose is very nice as well.
