Fuel Lines...steel braided

A few questions for the fuel experts out there...

I have come into 30 feet of FREEEEEEEEEEE steel braided Teflon lines and fittings for my lines

so here is the problem, everywhere i have read it says dash 6 fittings

all my fittings are dash 5 and my line is dash 5 also...it says its non conductive and i have read every where that I would want conductive....

is this going to be safe to use????? i believe dash 5 is about 5/16 in size...

part number to this is HOSE AE116-5



here is the characteristics and info about the product taken from this website that i searched on google http://www.saywell.co.uk/pages/666hose.htm

info:


General Characteristics/Chemical resistance:
Aeroquip Teflon hose is unaffected by all fuels, oils, alcohols, coolants, or solvents commonly used in aircraft. In addition, it is inert to acids both concentrated and diluted, and oxidizers and propellants used in the missile field.


Application Data: Aeroquip 666/667 Medium Pressure Teflon Hose may be used for all hydrocarbon fuel systems at pressures to 600 psi without qualification. The rate of effusion of gases and resistance to capillary leakage of fluid through the hose lines is controlled by a patented extrusion method used to produce Aeroquip Teflon hose liners.


Medium Pressure Teflon Hose without telfon carbon lining (AE116)

This is 666 and 667 hose without the conductive carbon lining on the inside of the teflon inner tube. This hose if often used for water potable and oxygen applications.

Operating temperatures: -65°F to +45O°F




At my work, we pressure test the lines to 3000psi

far from an expert but i would say plumb your rails parallel and that should be fine. i cant imagine 2 injectors out flowing a 5/16 line. I am sure more experienced members will speak up.
