BT8-8576F #6 E-Z Clip Refrigerant Hose

The BT8-8576F #6 E-Z Clip Refrigerant Hose is designed for compatible mobile A/C hose applications.
It is sold by the foot for custom hose assembly work.

This hose is listed as a #6 E-Z Clip refrigerant hose.
It has a nominal 5/16 in. inside diameter and a published Danfoss I.D. of 0.33 in. / 8.3 mm.

As a result, it is a useful hose option for mobile A/C service, custom hose builds, and heavy-duty HVAC repair work where E-Z Clip fittings are required.

Function and Performance

A refrigerant hose carries refrigerant through the A/C system.
It connects major system components such as the compressor, condenser, evaporator, and related fittings.

The BT8-8576F is associated with Danfoss / Aeroquip GH001 hose.
It is intended for use with Aeroquip / Danfoss E-Z Clip fittings.

This hose is listed with a 500 PSI working pressure, 2,000 PSI burst pressure, and 1 in. minimum bend radius.
Because hose fitment depends on hose size, fitting system, routing, and system design, compare your current hose and fittings before ordering.

Durability and Design

The BT8-8576F is a #6 E-Z Clip style refrigerant hose.
The supplied specifications list a polyamide tube, EPDM cover, and one textile braid reinforcement.

It is associated with a temperature range of approximately -40°F to 284°F.
The supplied data also lists SAE J2064 Type E product labeling and SAE J3062 Type C, Class I compliance reference.

Always confirm the fitting family and assembly method before building a hose.

Installation

Install this hose according to the E-Z Clip hose and fitting assembly procedure.
Before installation, confirm hose size, fitting type, clip style, cage style, and routing.

Cut the hose cleanly before installing fittings.
Then assemble it only with compatible E-Z Clip fittings and clips.

After assembly, inspect the connection.
Then evacuate, leak test, and charge the A/C system according to the correct service procedure.
