I have PTFE hose on mine, but not purchased from this supplier. I found out that if you purchase Earl's PTFE hose, you have to use their fittings also. The other ones don't fit. In other words, if you buy Earls PTFE hose and Summit or Russell fittings, they will not fit.

That's fairly standard, you should never mix and match such parts from different suppliers.
All it takes is a small variance in diameter etc and the parts wont work and if fitted wrong...could be dangerous.
It's easier to get away with on some barb/rubber/compression type fittings, but never do it with teflon.

I just purchased 12ft of -10 from them. I have to replace some Fragola brand hose I got through Summit Racing. Can't get that damn hose fitting to stop leaking in the engine bay. I said f#$k it and decided to switch brands. More money down the drain SMH.

Verdad Gallardo Got my Anfittings PTFE hose and the liner is double the thickness of the Fragola hose. Fragola's PTFE hose liner looks thin and cheap compared to Anfittings liner.

Just to throw this in, check to see if the ptfe hose is carbon or graphite lined as well. Helps to discharge static buildup from fuel line. Over time, pin holes can develop in fuel line due to static electricity trying to find its way to ground.
