Fuel Hoses (DIN 73379 Type B): Reliable Fuel Delivery Solutions
What Is DIN 73379 Type B?
DIN 73379 is a German standard that defines specifications for rubber hoses used in fuel delivery systems. Type B hoses, in particular, are:
– Designed for fuel lines with higher pressure resistance
– Reinforced with textile braiding
– Built to resist ethanol-blended fuels (E10, E85)
– Heat- and weather-resistant for under-hood applications
– Often used in injection systems and fuel return lines
Applications
– Passenger cars and light trucks
– Agricultural and construction equipment
– Motorcycles and scooters
– Marine fuel systems
– Stationary engines and generators
