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 a continuous 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 for 360-degree adjustment after installation, simplifying plumbing.
Earl's developed most 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 second to none and is possibly the most successful plumbing in history.
Top funny car teams, sprint car teams, and Indy car teams still rely on Earl's today.
Earl's plumbing has been utilized by the majority of Indy 500 winners.
Earl's Performance Plumbing has 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.
Manufacturing is based in Bowling Green, KY, with three distribution and assembly sub-locations in Indianapolis on Gasoline Alley, Earl's UK at Silverstone, and Earl's Australia in Sydney.
