Description
Product Overview
The Mytee Air Brake Tubing is a premium 0.5 inch (12.7 mm) nylon line hose designed for SAE J844 compliant air‑brake systems. Each hose is manufactured with a nominal wall thickness of 0.062 inch, providing a robust construction that endures a maximum pressure of 150 psi. Available in 50 ft, 100 ft, and 500 ft lengths, the black‑colored tubing offers excellent UV resistance and a low‑friction interior for smooth air flow. The material composition—high‑strength nylon—delivers flexibility in cold weather while maintaining structural integrity under high temperatures up to 200 °F. This product meets or exceeds SAE J844 Type A (non‑reinforced) and Type B (reinforced) specifications, ensuring compliance with FMVSS No. 106 and 49 CFR 571.106 standards.
Usage
Designed for commercial and recreational trailers, trucks, and heavy‑equipment air‑brake systems, this tubing excels in environments where reliability is non‑negotiable. Whether you are outfitting a long‑haul semi‑tractor, a utility trailer, or a farm vehicle, the hose’s temperature tolerance of –40 °F to 200 °F makes it suitable for extreme climates. Its resistance to gasoline, diesel fuel, cleaning chemicals, and road debris reduces the risk of premature wear, extending service life. Installation is straightforward with standard compression fittings, and the hose’s flexibility simplifies routing around chassis components.
