FlameShield™ aviation / aerospace grade high temperature, heat, flame and pyro resistant firesleeve jacket is manufactured to SAE AS1072E standards; it allows hydraulic hose assemblies to pass the fire testing standards of AS1055D; and the requirements of FAA TSO - C53a and TSO - C75. All FlameShield™ sleeve also meets 14 CFR 25.869(a)(4); Appendix F, Part 1(b)(7) (60-degree flammability Test) for use as a wiring/cable protection sleeve.
FlameShield™ aviation/aerospace sleeve may be used for all fuel, oil, hydraulic, fire extinguisher and prop feathering lines. "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. Enhanced protection can be obtained by using additional fiberglass plain sleeves under the firesleeve layer - and fireleeve can also be multi-layered.
Standard colors are oxide-red and black - other popular colors are silver-grey, blue, yellow and green. Available in sizes ranging from 0.25" Inside Diameter through 5" I.D. in 25 size steps.
