99.9% sure it's resistant to every chemical that can run in a vehicle. If you have a leak on a rig and it gets on the air brake hoses it can't damage it because you'd lose your brakes.

i made all of the fuel lines this far on my rig with a simular item that hey sell at the auto parts store its made my sur&r http://www.surrauto.com/fuel.html i havea simular setup for my carrier pump being installed also with quick disconnects

Hmm I might have to look into that when I go electric pump. Seems like those quick disconnects might be the best way to go overall.

Any word yet on how they are doing?

When I fixed my pickups, I had to use what was quickest. But I'll be putting some new shower heads in (that are proven diesel rated), but may change my tanks around.

thats my thinking.you know the things last about 20 years,so why not just stick with what works right?
of course for many it's due to cost.some fuel hose is near free compared,but when it's likely you'll never have to frig with 'em again if you just go with what was there,it's kinda hard to beat whats known to work for so many years.

as for the fuel hose used externally,i ran that goodyear 30r7 to and from my tanks on my chip truck in place of the rusted out metal lines when i first got my truck in '09.

When I replaced my shower head, I used a 3/8 compression union and a short piece of 3/8 steel line.

Well, I'm going to dig into my tanks and see what I've got going on. At least I know ahead of time what size I need.

This new crap they say is fuel is what eats the shower heads, I bet the new ones wont last 20 years.
The air brake nylon line has been in my truck for 8 years and worked with gas and diesel and Brandons Mercedes for heated WVO and Bio. It works.
