Tired of surprise coolant showers? Fed up with brake fluid puddles sneaking across the workshop like they’ve got somewhere to be?
Meet the Sykes-Pickavant FlowStops, the simple, reusable way to seal fluid lines before they turn your ramp into a slip-n-slide.
Designed for professional technicians, these heavy-duty plugs quickly seal hoses, pipes and ports during maintenance, keeping your workspace clean and your workflow calm.
The Universal Heavy Duty FlowStop Kit (70310000) includes 10 plugs covering 1–43mm, so whether you’re working on micro brake lines or chunky coolant hoses, you’ve got the perfect seal on hand.
And if you’re dealing with seriously big hoses, the larger single-piece plugs go all the way up to 130mm.
Made from silicone-free, chemical-resistant rubber, FlowStops handle oils, brake fluid, coolant, cleaning agents, and even the questionable mystery liquid in that old hose.
From frosty mornings to hot engine bays, they work flawlessly between –25°C and +90°C.
Insert. Push. Twist. That’s it. No extra fittings, clamps, or creative language required.
These plugs save time, reduce mess, and make the job smoother, especially when you're mid-repair and don’t want a river of coolant ruining your socks.
FlowStops recently got a thumbs-up from Captain Jack Spanners, who showed just how quick and effective they are in the workshop.
