straight position. While still at the specified temperature, the hose shall be evenly and uniformly bent
through an angle of 180° around a mandrel whose diameter is twice the minimum bend radius. Mandrel
shall be at the test temperature. Flexing shall be accomplished within four seconds for fabric reinforced
hose and 8-12 seconds for wire reinforced hose. Samples shall then be returned to room temperature
and proof pressure tested, and split longitudinally for inspection.
4.7.4.2 Required
Hose shall not fracture or visibly show any cracks, checks or breaks in the tube or cover.
4.7.5 Tensile Test - Assembly

4.7.8.2.2. Hose assembly installations: No functional corrosion damage that would result in not being
able to service the assembly (i.e., must be able to disassemble fittings) is allowed.
5.0 QUALITY
Parts and assemblies will meet the cleanliness requirements of MPAPS F-2. All hose produced to this
specification will be clean, free of dirt, grease, and contamination. All rubber debris from cutting and
processing will be removed. Any internal release agents shall be flushed from the inside of the hose.
Parts shall be free of voids and/or reinforcement splices. The O.D. in the area of any bend shall not be
less than 85% of the nominal tubing O.D. (15% max flatness). The wall thickness of the tubing after
bending shall not be less than 70% of the original dimension. The walls of the tubing (interior and
exterior) in the area of the bend shall not contain surface defects which exceed 0.25 mm (0.010 in) in
depth. There shall be no intra-coating flaking or delamination of coating in bend areas.
6.0 QUALIFICATION
Material and processes submitted for approval to this specification shall include the following:
6.0.1 Report: A detailed and signed test report documenting testing to this specification prepared as
per MPAPS-9543. The report will include actual test data not merely test summaries.
