This specification covers six types of air hose intended for use in automotive air brake systems. The system includes all air actuated equipment leading from the air brake line. These types of hose are not to be used from the air compressor to air reservoir if air temperature is in excess of 250 F. The types of hose are as follows: Type A–Hose shall be mandrel built having a tube and friction of oil resisting rubber, reinforced with cotton or synthetic cord or duck plies or a combination of both, and a cover of oil resisting compounds utilizing polymerized chloroprene as the basic material. Assemble with reusable or permanent type metal end fittings. Type B–Hose shall be nonmandrel built having a tube and friction of oil resisting rubber, reinforced with cotton or synthetic cord or duck plies or a combination of both, and a cover of oil resisting compounds utilizing polymerized chloroprene as the basic material. Assemble with reusable or permanent type metal end fittings.
