MIL-PRF-52343D
6. NOTES
(This section contains information of a general or explanatory nature that may be helpful, but
is not mandatory.)
6.1 Intended use. The kit is intended for use in making repairs on the 4-inch, lightweight,
collapsible petroleum hoseline system. The hose clamps are used to crimp pressurized hoses on
both sides of a damaged section and enable the repair crew to cut the damaged section out and
install hose couplings or repair assemblies contained in the kit to effect a repair with minimum
time and effort. This system is military unique in that no commercial equivalent exists for
repairing hose of this size and type, or for withstanding repairs under battlefield conditions. The
kit is not intended for making repairs to potable water hoseline systems.
