NL4526 Flexshield is the next generation of marine fuel line! Similar to our NL4525 Type A1 it is used to convey gasoline or diesel in boats with enclosed engine compartments, however, it is uniquely designed to meet new EPA requirements for low-permeation class A1-15 fuel lines. Flexshield has been tested to 15 gm/m2/day permeation & meets Section 213 of the Clean Air Act to ensure compliance to EPA. It has a thick cover designed to resist flames & oil and a embedded nylon barrier to limit fuel permeation. NL4526 exceeds SAE J1527 USCG Type A1-15 fuel feed and Type A2 fuel fill specifications as well as ISO 7840-A1 and CE requirements. ContiTech's Flexshield fuel line is also compatible with E15/B20 Biofuels.
