Dear Mr. Elson:#Please forgive the delay in responding to your lette of october 4, 1974, requesting information on the labeling of air brake hose with you manufacture.#You have correctly interpreted Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 106-74,*Brake Hose*, as requiring labeling identifying Acme-Hamilton as the manufacturer of the hose, and not requiring further labeling identifying your customers. You are permitted to label the hose with optional information, such as your customer's name, in addition to that required by S5.2.2 as incorporated in S7.2 of the Standard. To avoid confusion with the required information, however, the optional information must appear on the opposite side if the hose.#Yours truly,Richard B. Dyson,Acting Chief Counsel;
