This is an authentic OEM replacement fuel pipe. It is specially made for use with gas trimmers/cutters. The purpose of a fuel line is to deliver the fuel from the tank to the carburetor. Over time rubber material will become brittle and may crack allowing for leaks. At this point the line/pipe should be replaced.
