TITLE: FMVSS INTERPRETATION

TEXT: Please forgive the delay in responding to your letter of March 26, 1975, requesting an interpretation of the masking requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 106-74, Brake Hoses.

The requirement that the label on a brake hose remain visible after painting was amended on March 17, 1975, (40 FR 12088, Docket No. 1-5, Notice 16) to permit the label to remain masked if (1) the masking material is affixed in such a way that no adhesive contacts any part of the label and (2) the masking is manually removable. Since the requirement that the label be masked or visible, rather than obscured, is a vehicle requirement, it is not effective until September 1, 1975. Vehicles manufactured before that date may contain hose which has been painted over.
