I`ve bought from both and can`t tell the difference. I believe it to be the same MIL spec.
I`ve got -10 from the pump to the reg.

Like all things that are sold, some are good and some are not Not all stainless covered hoses meet the MIL specs for fuel. I like and use the teflon lined SS hoses for fuel, oil and as many other things I can use them on because there way better on pressure, corrosion and fluid resistance damaging them. I had a piece of AN neopreme SS fuel hose go bad, staring leaking in the middle of the hose , in six months. I've never had a teflon lined hose leak, the same size teflon lined SS hose is quite a bit smaller in diamter and weight than the same size neopreme,caomparing #8 to #8 Neopreme is usually cheaper per foot, same thing on the fittings also Buy it once or buy it several times
