MIL-DTL-6000D OIL & COOLANT HOSE 5/16" ID

September 7, 2021

Great product to use on rocker box drain lines from cylinder head to sump on Lycoming Engines. Heavier duty than the smaller outside diameter hose. This is 3/8 I.D. by 3/4 O.D. and MIL 6000.

Excellent hose and I am using this for the coupling on a Lycoming 0320 oil return line. very supple, cuts well.

Due to the inability to find the OEM or an appropriate automotive product, I used this hose to replace a deteriorated direct injection oil hose on an outboard boat engine. The outside diameter is slightly larger than the OEM, but it worked and I think it is probably higher quality than the OEM.

The hose worked fine but whoever does the measuring at A/C Spruce needs to buy a better yardstick. Fortunately my project didn’t need 12” of hose but if it did it would have been more delays and shipping fees.

When I purchased this hose the lady said it was flexible and had a smooth outer layer. The hose does not bend well and kinks easily and has a braided outer layer. Was not what I was expecting and will not work for me.
