Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation on the meaning of ISO specific terms and expressions related to conformity
assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical
Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information
The committee responsible for this document is ISO/TC 45, Rubber and rubber products, Subcommittee
SC 1, Rubber and plastics hoses and hose assemblies.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 13363:2004), which has been technically
revised with the following changes:
— class B hoses to be of rubber materials only;
— the abrasion test has been removed until a new abrasion test standard has been developed and the
corresponding International Standard published.
It also incorporates the Technical Corrigendum ISO 13363:2004/Cor.1:2008.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 13363:2016(E)

Rubber and plastics hoses for marine-engine wet-exhaust

systems — Specification
WARNING — Persons using this International Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory
practice. This International Standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if
any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate health
and safety practices and to ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions.

1 Scope
This International Standard specifies requirements for three types and two classes of hose. The hoses
are intended for use in marine-engine wet-exhaust systems (where the exhaust gases are mixed with
the discharge of cooling water). It does not apply to outboard motor/personal water craft.
The three types are the following:
— type 1: a softwall hose, made of oil-resistant material, with a synthetic-fabric reinforcement;
— type 2: a hardwall hose, made of oil-resistant material, with a synthetic-fabric reinforcement with a
helical wire embedded in it;
— type 3: a hose or tube (flexible connector), made of oil-resistant material, with or without a
reinforcement or cover, intended for use in short lengths in locations where the connector is
protected from mechanical damage.
The two classes are the following:
— class A: intended for diesel engines;
— class B: intended for petrol engines and for diesel engines with a very high exhaust temperature.

ageing shall not be more than 25 % less than the initial mean burst pressure before ageing.
Use the remaining test piece for an adhesion test in accordance with 8.5. It shall meet the requirements
given in 8.5.
There is no limitation on the increase in the value of these properties. It is recommended that the test
pieces for this test be taken from the part of the hose adjacent to the area where the original burst and
adhesion test pieces were taken.

9 Frequency of tests
The tests required for type approval and routine testing are specified in Annex B.
Type testing is carried out in order to confirm that all the materials, construction, and test requirements
of this International Standard have been met by the method of manufacture and hose design. The
tests shall be repeated at a maximum of five-year intervals or whenever a change in the method of
manufacture or materials used occurs.
Routine tests shall be carried out on each finished length of hose or hose assembly prior to dispatch.
Production acceptance tests are those tests, specified in Annex C, which should be carried out by the
manufacturer to control the quality of their products. The frequencies specified in Annex C are given
for guidance purposes only.

Annex A
(normative)

Heat-resistance test

A.1 General
Exhaust hoses shall withstand high temperatures (due, for example, to an interruption in the flow of
cooling water) for a certain period of time.

A.2 Procedure
Connect a 2 m ± 0,5 m piece of hose to an actual or simulated engine exhaust system. Unless the hose is
a shaped moulding, install it as a straight section. Subject the test hose to 2 min of exhaust gas flow at
not less than the relevant temperature in Table 5. The exhaust gas flow rate, Q, in m3/min shall not be
less than that given by Formula (A.1):
Q = 0,054 5 d + 0,001 9 d2 (A.1)

where

d is the inside diameter of the hose, in mm.

At the end of the 2 min, allow the hose to cool to room temperature and then subject it to an internal
pressure of 0,75 bar in accordance with ISO 1402 for 1 min. There shall be no leakage.
NOTE The test may be conducted on a representative size of hose to qualify other sizes of similar construction
with equal or greater wall thicknesses.
