Abstract:
An improved hose fitting assembly is disclosed which is designed for use in automotive air conditioning systems and is particularly well suited for use in such systems employing recently developed composite type hose which incorporates an inner liner of a thermoplastic material such as nylon or the like. The assembly comprises a resilient sealing member provided on the outer periphery of the fitting which is designed to sealingly engage the hose member and fitting to provide a positive seal therebetween so as to prevent loss of pressurized fluid such as refrigerant gas.
