FlameShield™ aviation /aerospace grade high temperature, heat, flame and pyro resistant firesleeve jacket is manufactured to the latest SAE AS1072F standards so it can pass the fire testing standards of AS1055F: and the requirements of FAA TSP - C53a and TSO - C75. This version has the marking printed on it along with a lay-line to enable installation without twist in the hose.

"Fire-proof" hose lines, as defined by the FAA, must withstand a direct flame for fifteen minutes under specified flow conditions without failure. Fire-resistant lines must withstand a 5 minute exposure under these conditions.
Fire-proof hose lines are obtained when the proper size firesleeve is selected and properly assembled with appropriate clamps.
