The coiled air brake hose assembly also includes a fitting molded over the hose at the terminal end and providing access to the lumen. The fitting conforms to and bonds to an outer surface of the coiled hose.

Abstract: An air blown fiber tube cable having improved thermal stability in contrast to conventional air blown fiber (ABF) tube cables and within which one or more air blown optical fiber units can be installed. The air blown fiber tube is formed from a cross-linked polyolefin (preferably cross-linked high density polyethylene) comprising at least one non-polymer filler material having a coefficient of thermal expansion less than the coefficient of thermal expansion of said tube.
