I also think that there are more modern materials and connections that are far superior to anything that is official USCG approved. AN type hose and connections immediately come to mind.





I have AN lines and fittings all over my boats but I don't agree with the AN type hose as being superior to the A1 rated fuel line, at least not when it comes to flammability. The A1 stuff will withstand fire and high temperature much longer than the AN hoses I have bought.   I tested with direct flame sources, hard to tell if the stainless braiding would offer any protection in a more real world situation but it doesn't help much with a direct flame test.. the AN stuff lasted about as long as standard Automotive fuel line. The A1 rated fuel hose I had was a whole different ball park.

The way I read it, A1-15 is needed rather than just the A1 on the high pressure side of the pump due to it's resistance to flammability?

Don't overcomplicate it, the A1-15 rating is just a newer rating that also takes into account permeability - A1 is A1 as it relates to fire resisitance   if you buy new A1 line now you will get A1-15

Joe,
I wasn't trying to overcomplicate but rather simplify! Some of those publication you need a law degree to better understand them. Well, you should have mentioned the A1-15 to begin with.
