The hose assembly covered by this specification is military
unique to meet the requirements specified herein and in the
applicable specification sheets. The hose qualified in accordance
with MIL-DTL-27267 for field attachable fitting assemblies should
be mated with either reusable fittings qualified in accordance with
MIL-DTL-27272 or with permanent fittings to meet the requirements
specified herein and in the applicable specification sheet. This
hose assembly is a hydraulic or pneumatic conductor for a fluid at
the operating pressure, specified in table III, even under extreme
temperature conditions ranging from -65°F to 450°F (275°F for class
2). The hose assembly is intended for use in high-temperature fuel,
lubricating oil, water-alcohol, chemical-fluid, hydraulic and
pneumatic systems that allow some gaseous effusion through the hose
wall. However, hose assembly used in hydraulic and pneumatic
systems should not exceed the temperature limit of 400°F.
Furthermore, it is recommended that this hose assembly should not
be used in pneumatic storage system applications and in any
applications that exceed the operating temperature range and
pressure specified herein. Hose assembly sizes -20Z and -24Z should
not be used in systems where the peak pressures are greater than
1000 psi (7MPa). Hose assembly size -3/-4 is not intended for use
in aircraft hydraulic systems.
