Will,

Aeroquip 666 is the industry standard in carbon-lined, teflon hose.   
It isn't cheep.  And is isn't particularly light.  But it's forever  
stuff, you only put it in once.  And it's a lot tougher than anything  
else out there.

See Aircraft Spruce for details.

BTW, the teflon hose used in fuel systems MUST be carbon lined or the  
static electricity generated by the fuel flowing through the line  
will eventually burn tiny pin-hole leaks in the hose.


Good building and great flying,
