In the rapidly evolving automotive industry, the reliability and performance of air conditioning systems are paramount. One standard at the core of this reliability is SAE J2064 Type C. This specification, detailed within resources such as "SAE J2064 PDF", and extended through classifications such as SAE J2064 hose and SAE J2064 type E, drives innovation for transport climate control globally.



Industry Trends: Evolution of SAE J2064 Standards
Standards for refrigerant hoses like SAE J2064 have steadily advanced to address new refrigerants (e.g., R-134a, R-1234yf), enhanced impermeability, safety, and lifetime durability requirements. The automotive HVAC market, projected to reach over $23 billion by 2028 (source), places strict demands on hose assemblies.
Latest trends include:
- Improved barrier constructions for ultra-low permeation rates
- Lighter weight, more flexible hose designs
- Eco-friendly materials compatible with new refrigerants
- Integration of intelligent diagnostic sensors
- Global move towards compliance with SAE J2064 Type C Class II permeability targets
Technical Overview: SAE J2064 Type C Key Parameters
The SAE J2064 Type C hose is designed for vehicle air conditioning systems using R-134a or R-1234yf refrigerants. Its construction offers a robust balance of flexibility, durability, and minimal refrigerant permeation.
Parameter | Type C | Type E (E TYPE FACTORY AIR CONDITIONING HOSE) | Industry Standard |
---|---|---|---|
Working Pressure (MPa) | 3.4 | 3.5 | ≥ 3.0 |
Minimum Burst Pressure (MPa) | 13.8 | 15.0 | ≥ 12.5 |
Permeation Rate (g/m²/yr) | < 3 | < 2.5 | < 4 |
Temperature Range (°C) | -40 to +125 | -40 to +135 | -30 to +120 |
Applicable Refrigerants | R-134a, R-1234yf | R-134a, R-1234yf | R-134a, R-1234yf |
Ozone Resistance | Excellent | Excellent | Good |

Professional FAQ: SAE J2064 Type C, E, and Hose Technology
A: Typically, type C hoses feature an EPDM rubber inner tube, synthetic textile reinforcement, a polyamide or EVOH barrier layer, and an EPDM or NBR/PVC blend cover for superior flexibility and ozone resistance.
A: SAE J2064 type c hoses are available in multiple nominal inner diameters (5/16", 13/32", 1/2", etc.) with wall thicknesses ranging from 2.7 to 3.6 mm depending on application.
A: Installation should conform to SAE J2064 and OEM specifications: avoid twisting, ensure proper radius bends, verify crimping accuracy, leak test under pressure, and prevent chafing at contact points.
A: Type E hoses, such as the E TYPE FACTORY AIR CONDITIONING HOSE, offer higher burst pressures, broader temperature tolerance, and even lower permeation rates, suited to more demanding and environmentally strict systems.
A: "Class II" denotes hoses tested and certified to allow a stricter permeation limit compared to Class I, making them suitable for modern low-emission and eco-sensitive applications (see SAE J2064 Standard).
A: They are designed for R-134a, R-1234yf, and R-12 refrigerants but new industry models favor R-134a/R-1234yf due to environmental regulations.
A: Official documents can be accessed and purchased directly through the SAE website. Free summaries and datasheets are frequently available in industry forums and resources such as ackits.com.
