• About this item.
• Hose assembly for transferring oline with up to 15% ethanol, diesel, kerosene, or oil in manual pump or gravity flow dispensing operations.
• Nitrile synthetic rubber tube and cover for resistance to oil, solvents, abrasion, and weathering.
• Spiral synthetic yarn reinforcement for strength.
• 8" internal strain springs on each end to prevent kinking at the coupling.
• Two factory-installed 3/4" male NPT fittings for attaching to couplings or equipment.

This Apache 98108505 fuel transfer hose assembly has a 3/4" inside diameter (ID), is 10' long, and is suitable for transferring oline with up to 15% ethanol, diesel, kerosene, or oil in manual pump or gravity flow dispensing operations. The hose has a nitrile synthetic rubber tube and cover for resistance to oil, abrasion, and weathering, and is reinforced with spirals of synthetic yarn for strength. It is not recommended for use with biodiesel. The assembly includes two factory-installed 3/4" male National Pipe Taper (NPT) threaded fittings for attaching the hose to couplings or equipment, and each end has an 8" internal strain spring to prevent kinking at the coupling. This fuel transfer hose assembly is suitable for dispensing oline with up to 15% ethanol, diesel, kerosene, or oil with low-pressure dispensing pumps, barrel pumps, or from gravity storage tanks. Industrial hoses transfer or convey air or liquid in hose systems. When selecting industrial hoses, use the STAMPED method to help determine the type of hose needed: S = Size (ID, OD, and length) T = Temperature (maximum and minimum temperatures of material being transported) A = Application (industry or process) M = Material (to be conveyed, type and concentration) P = Pressure (maximum working pressure) E = Ends (type of end connectors or couplings on hose) D = Delivery method (volume and velocity) The inside diameter of the hose must be adequate to keep pressure loss to a minimum and avoid damage to the hose due to heat generation or excessive turbulence. The hose must be capable of withstanding the minimum and maximum temperatures that occur within the hose system. Some applications require specialized oils or s to be conveyed through the system. In this case, hose selection must ensure compatibility of the hose tube, cover, couplings and O-rings with the fluid used. Industrial hoses are used in systems such as air compressors, automatic manufacturing operations, aircraft controls, and tire installation in industries including agriculture, mining, road construction, firefighting, and aviation. Apache manufactures belts, hoses, and other molded rubber products. The company, founded in 1963, is headquartered in Cedar Rapids, IA.
