Russell Performance
<h3>Russell Performance: Race-Proven Fluid Transfer Systems</h3><p>Born on the drag strip and refined over decades of motorsport competition, Russell Performance has become one of the most trusted names in automotive fluid transfer. <strong>Founded by drag racer Dave Russell</strong>, the brand got its start when Russell began adapting surplus aircraft hoses and fittings for use on his race car — a practical, performance-first approach that still defines the company today. What began as a small speed shop operation grew into an industry-leading manufacturer with a dedicated engineering staff, an ISO 9001-certified facility, and a product catalog trusted by professionals and enthusiasts alike.</p><p>
Russell Performance Products has built a reputation as a leader in advanced fluid transfer systems, manufacturing a complete line of hoses and fittings for fuel, brake, water, oil, and various other systems for automotive, motorcycle, and marine applications.
Today,
Russell is a proud member of the Edelbrock Group family of brands, representing over 130 years of collective performance expertise.
</p><h3>What Russell Performance Makes</h3><p>
Russell Performance manufactures high-performance automotive parts including hose, hose ends, adapter fittings, fuel management, brake and clutch hose, accessories, and supporting components for street, race, truck, Jeep, and off-road applications.
The lineup spans an impressive range of product lines —

</p><p>Among Russell's most popular offerings are their <a href="/602-russell-performance-stainless-steel-and-performance-brake-lines-and-hoses-12816">stainless steel performance brake lines and hoses</a>, which replace expandable rubber OEM hoses with braided stainless construction for more consistent, fade-resistant pedal feel. For brake system maintenance, Russell's innovative <strong>Speed Bleeder</strong> valves —
which replace the original bleeder valve with a spring-loaded one-way ball and check valve design that opens to allow old fluid and air out, then closes automatically between pumps
— have made brake bleeding dramatically simpler. These are found throughout Russell's <a href="/602-russell-performance-brake-vacuum-line-15400">brake vacuum line</a> product range.</p><p>On the fuel side, Russell's <a href="/602-russell-performance-fuel-line-11224">fuel line</a> assemblies and <a href="/602-russell-performance-fuel-hose-fitting-17252">fuel hose fittings</a> are engineered to handle everything from carbureted classics to modern EFI setups.
Russell's wide variety of 6061-T6 aluminum fittings allow connection to almost any component, with adapters offered in standard, metric, and pipe thread to fit most popular pumps and filters — finished in Endura, traditional blue, or black anodized.
