Colored PVC Air Brake Hose

Color air brake hoses are a type of hose used in air brake systems on vehicles such as trucks and buses. These hoses are color-coded to indicate their intended use and help prevent errors during installation and maintenance. Order the bulk air brake hoses here from Kingdaflex.

Colored Air Brake Hose Features

  • Color-coded design to prevent incorrect hook-ups
  • Interwoven spirals for greater flexibility and improved twist resistance
  • Fully bonded layers to enhance kink resistance, allowing for tighter bends
  • Rugged elastomeric hose cover that resists gasoline, diesel fuel, oil, and commonly used road and cleaning chemicals
  • Perforations in some sizes to allow moisture to escape from the reinforcement layer
  • UV and ozone resistant
  • Designed for operating pressures up to 225 psi
  • Operating temperature of -40˚F to +200˚F (-40˚C to +93˚C)
  • Suitable for use with factory-assembled, permanently attached fittings or with field-attachable, reusable fittings
  • Meets or exceeds SAE J1402 – Type A
  • Meets or exceeds DOT FMVSS No. 106 – Brake Hoses, 49 CFR 571.106

air brake hose Color Code

Compared with the regular air brake hose, color-coded air brake hoses are used in the transportation industry to help identify the various functions of different hoses. Here are the common color codes used for air brake hoses:

  • Black: This color is typically used for the service line, which is the main air line that carries compressed air from the air compressor to the air reservoirs and brake chambers.

  • Blue: This color is usually used for the trailer supply line, which provides compressed air to the trailer’s air reservoirs and controls the trailer brakes.

  • Red: This color is often used for the emergency line, which is used to activate the trailer brakes in the event of a loss of air pressure in the system.

  • Green: This color is commonly used for the glad hand connectors, which are used to connect the hoses from the tractor to the trailer.

  • Yellow: This color is occasionally used for the auxiliary line, which is used to supply air to accessories such as air horns or air suspension systems.

By using color-coded air brake hoses, it is easier for mechanics and drivers to identify which hoses perform which function, making maintenance and troubleshooting simpler and more efficient.
