00HDW-0011-02 – JIC-4 Female to Female Flexible Oxygen Hose (2 ft)
Available now through the AirParts Aero marketplace.
Overview Section
The 00HDW-0011-02 is a high-pressure, aviation-grade Flexible Oxygen Hose Assembly engineered for supplemental and emergency life-support systems. This 2-foot (24-inch) assembly acts as a vital conduit between high-pressure oxygen sources—such as cylinders and regulators—and the distribution manifolds that supply flight crews and passengers.
Precision-engineered with JIC-4 Female Swivel fittings at both extremities, this hose ensures a leak-proof, metal-to-metal seal under extreme pressure variables. As a safety-critical component, the 00HDW-0011-02 undergoes rigorous Oxygen Cleaning protocols to eliminate hydrocarbons, oils, and particulate matter that could cause spontaneous combustion in a 100% oxygen environment.
Key Features Section
JIC-4 Swivel Interface: Equipped with 3/16-inch (Dash 4) female swivel connectors, allowing the technician to thread the nut without rotating the hose body, preventing internal torsional stress.
Certified Oxygen Clean: Manufactured in accordance with aerospace standards (such as SAE AS1359) to ensure zero contamination from petroleum-based products.
High-Pressure PTFE Core: Features a polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon) inner tube, which is chemically inert and resistant to outgassing.1
Reinforced External Braid: Protected by a high-tensile stainless steel braid that provides exceptional abrasion resistance and prevents "ballooning" under pressure.
37-Degree Flare Seal: Leverages the JIC standard to create a robust mechanical seal that remains secure despite structural vibrations.

Technical Engineering Insight
The technical reliability of the 00HDW-0011-02 lies in its Molecular Stability and Seating Geometry. Unlike standard industrial hoses, the PTFE core used here is non-aging and non-contaminating, ensuring that the "breathable air" remains free of the "rubber smell" associated with lower-quality elastomers.
The JIC-4 (7/16-20 thread) swivel nuts are designed to provide a high-clamping force with relatively low torque. This 37-degree flare interface creates a high-pressure seal that is resistant to the thermal expansion and contraction cycles experienced during rapid climbs and descents. Furthermore, the stainless steel braiding is "grounded" through the fittings to prevent the buildup of static electricity—a critical safety feature when moving high-velocity dry oxygen through a flexible line. Choosing the 00HDW-0011-02 ensures that your life-support system meets the rigorous flammability and pressure-testing requirements of FAR Part 23, 25, and 91 operations.
Installation & Maintenance Addendum
Cap Integrity: Keep shipping caps in place until installation.
No Sealants: Never use Teflon tape or pipe dope. The JIC-4 seal is purely mechanical.
Torque Specs: Tighten to the specific inch-pound rating found in your aircraft maintenance manual (AMM) to avoid over-compressing the flare.
