Abstract: A multilayered tubing for low-pressure fuel applications is provided. The multilayered tubing includes a first thermoplastic layer defining an interior cavity and a second thermoplastic layer encasing the first thermoplastic layer. The first thermoplastic layer includes an extrudable thermoplastic fluoropolymer, and the second thermoplastic layer may include a semi-crystalline thermoplastic polymer. In certain variations, an adhesive is disposed between the first thermoplastic layer and the second thermoplastic layer. In still other variations, a third thermoplastic layer is disposed between the first thermoplastic layer and the second thermoplastic layer. In such instances, a first adhesive can be disposed between the first thermoplastic layer and the third thermoplastic layer and/or a second adhesive can be disposed between the third thermoplastic layer and the second thermoplastic layer.

Abstract: A fuel quick connector body according to various aspects of the present disclosure includes a wall. The wall extends along a longitudinal axis between a first end and a second end. The wall defines a passage between the first end and the second end. The body includes a polymer. The polymer includes polyphenylene sulfide in an amount greater than or equal to about 70 weight percent. The polymer may have a flexural modulus of less than or equal to about 4 GPa. The polymer may have a notched ISO impact strength of greater than or equal to about 25 kJ/m2. The polymer may have an elongation at break of greater than or equal to about 15%. In various aspects, the present disclosure provides a fuel quick connector including the fuel quick connector body, a retainer component, and an O-ring.

Abstract: A tubing to supply diesel exhaust fluid to an exhaust system of a diesel engine includes an inner layer made of a first material and an outer layer made of a second material. The first material includes polyethersulfone polymer or polyphenylene sulfide. The second material includes a polyamide or polyphthalamide. An outer surface of the inner layer and an inner surface of the outer layer include a reactive material that facilitates bonding between the inner layer and the outer layer of the tubing.

Abstract: A multilayer plastic tubing for motor vehicles includes a first layer of tubing and a second layer of tubing positioned about the first layer of tubing. The first layer is stiffer and thinner than the second layer.

Abstract: A plastic tubing having at least two layers for a fluid cooling system includes a first layer being formed from an ethylene tetrafluoroethylene or a fluorinated ethylene propylene based plastic material and configured as an internal lining formed of a fluorocarbon plastic material. Further, a second layer is configured as a sheathing to the first layer and formed from polyamide material. An adhesive layer may be disposed between the first and second layer and at least one other layer may be configured as an external sheathing of the plastic tubing formed from an elastomer based material.

Abstract: A hose assembly includes an inner elastomer layer concentric with a centerline, and a fiber reinforcement layer disposed adjacent to and radially outward of the inner elastomer layer. The fiber reinforcement layer may have multiple fiber layers separated by a respective elastomer layer. An intermediate elastomer layer is disposed adjacent to and radially outward of the fiber reinforcement layer. An outer layer is disposed adjacent to and radially outward of the intermediate elastomer layer. The outer layer is an elastomer having a high carbon-black content. The outer layer includes a minimal thickness in order to maintain flexibility of the hose assembly.

Abstract: A multilayer fuel hose may include a fuel filler hose construction which may include a first inner fuel-impermeable rubber layer, and a second outer wall layer, and a hose fitting. The inner fuel-impermeable rubber layer may include particles constructed and arranged to increase the impermeability of fuels through the inner fuel-impermeable rubber layer.
