I have a set of MSDS /6 headers and it appears that my handbrake cables sit right on the headers. I haven't started the engine yet cause they will obviously melt. Anyone else have this issue and if so what did you do?

that's what I do! Group: Members Posts: 20,065 Joined: 27-December 02 From: Port Hope, Ontario Member No.: 26 Region Association: Canada |
Likely no, it's meant for close proximity and temporary contact, but the correct hose with the correct clamps is what the FAA calls "fireproof". Constant contact with a header the cover might not fail, but what's inside might bake till it fails.
If it only monetarily touches the headers you will be fine. QUOTE "Fire-proof" hose lines as defined by FAA must withstand a direct flame for fifteen minutes under specified flow conditions without failure. |
