REFLECTOR: Aeroquip hose

[Scott Derrick]

I was going to use Aeroquip AE701 hose which is the replacement for 
Aeroquip 601 hose for fuel and oil lines..

I noticed all the racing shops, Summit, Chief's, ect carry an Aeroquip 
hose called AQP which has identical pressure, temp, ID, OD and lifetime 
specs as aircraft 701 hose.  Also  the AN flare fittings for this hose 
are 1/2 to 1/3 the price of AN flares from AS or other aircraft supply 
houses.

Is this AQP hose just 701 with a different name?   Anybody using it for 
primary fuel and oil lines?
