Mystery Hose Bought a huge lot of stainless braided hose off ebay that was advertised as -6 AN hose. Was going to use it for fuel and already has ends on it. But when I got it yesterday I saw that it has metal fittings instead of aluminum and the OD of the braid is 1/2" instead of 5/8" Hose ends are -6 but what is this stuff made of inside? MFG is SSP. Markings on it are SSP 316 TZQ. SSP usually does instrument mfg to my knowledge. Safe for Fuel?
The core is likely teflon, thus causing it to be thinner outside.
It should be fine, but I would research the hose type in more detail.
Most teflon is rated for more pressure than your fuel system could ever achieve.
