Abstract

A method of making a lightweight hose assembly including a step of extruding the inner liner. A nonmetallic material is then braided about the exterior of the liner. The inner liner and braided layer are then passed through a reservoir containing a solution of the fluorocarbon polymer. The solvent is then removed, leaving a fluorocarbon polymer coating dispersed throughout the braided layer.
