Founded in 1955 by Earl Fouts in Lawndale, California, Earl's Performance Products aimed to supply high-quality military aircraft surplus plumbing components directly to the racing industry from a small retail outlet.
As the military surplus market diminished, Earl recognized the need for continuity of supply for the racing market and pioneered the Earl's range of hoses and fittings still in use today.
In 1973, Earl's Performance invented the self-indexing hose end known as the 'Swivel Seal', which allows 360-degree adjustment after installation, simplifying plumbing.
Earl's also invented many special-purpose racing adapters, the full billet hose clamp housing, and introduced the flexible armored PTFE lined hose to the racing industry in the 1960s.
Earl's racing heritage is unmatched and is possibly the winning-est plumbing in history, relied upon by top funny car teams, sprint car teams, and Indy car teams.
Earl's plumbing has been featured on the majority of Indy 500 winners, with distribution outlets worldwide.
Earl's offers the most complete line of performance plumbing on the market and is recognized as the world's No.1 motorsport hose and fittings source.
