1. Scope—This SAE Standard provides ordering information for any SAE 20R5 hose type (such as “EC, HT, LT”
or combination thereof.) This is a wire-reinforced hose for coolant circulating systems of automotive type
engines. This hose consists of a convoluted section with plain ends. The hose shall contain a wire helix or
helices in the convoluted section. It is a supplement for Government use but may be used by others.

previous method of marking.
3.5.2 Marking for non-Government users shall be agreed upon by the customer and manufacturer.
4. Notes
4.1 Intended Use—The flexible, wire-reinforced coolant hose is intended for use in automotive cooling systems. It
is commonly known as universal type hose.
4.4 Cross Reference Information—Table 3 shows the relationship between designations in ZZ-H-428 and this
document. MS51 008 only provided part numbers for ZZ-H-428, Type V, Grade A, Class 2 hose. Those part
numbers are now replaced by SAE J20/2ECLT Class A part numbers.
