ABSTRACT:
A means for ensuring a firm seal between a hose fitting and a hose comprising a sealant that also acts as a lubricant and is applied to the nipple portion of the fitting prior to insertion into the core tube of the hose. The sealant causes the core tube or the core tube liner, if used, to soften and swell, thereby completely filling and firmly engaging the threads in the nipple portion, and also causes a localized plasticized condition in the core tube or liner adjacent the threaded portion of the nipple resulting in the core tube retaining firm engagement with the nipple during temperature cycling and flexing of the hose assembly.
