Does anyone know how fuel hose suppliers finish the ends of fire sleeve?
Vans fuel hoses like the VA-139 have a fire sleeve that's banded. The fire sleeve it's self appears to have been dipped in something that looks like it is impervious to oil and keeps it from fraying. Does anyone know how they finish the ends?
Does anyone know what the firesleeve material is on Van's fuel hoses? It does not appear to be the Eaton fire sleeve (orange) with fuzzy fiberglass inside.
I want to make some fuel lines using the Eaton fire sleeve material (orange) but I'd like to finish the ends with some thing more than just the 1/4" bands. Heat shrink? Silicone tape? Ideas?
Thanks
Jerry
