Hi,

Can anyone help or is familiar with pneumatic hose pieces.

I've got a load of parts from set 8868 to add to my store including a load
of pneumatic hoses pieces which I believe are original but can't be 100%.

it's listed in the catalogue as being black however they're more dark
grey then black, they're only shown as coming in black - part no. 5102.

Can anyone advise if these are likely genuine - I don't want to list them
as black and then someone get upset and say the colour is off!

Thanks
Alex

The photo really doesn’t show the colour very well, hoping someone familiar with
these pieces can chip in!

I believe that it would classify as just black. Not 100% sure however. Just my
two cents, I was wondering the same thing, but black was the only color that
was for the part I was looking at. The rubber probably just makes the color a
bit lighter.

no worries sometimes photo colours can be off a bit but it does look like a black
hose. those parts can sometimes have more noticeable colour variations due to
the plastic type but id just confirm they arent pearl dark gray and then they
should be fine

The same question comes up every now and then. The hoses from set 8868 are different
in color and although they are cataloged as black they do not have the black
color we know from the black hoses from other sets.

Bricklink should change the color of the black hoses in this set to Dark Gray
for example. At the moment it is confusing. It is original Lego, I have come
across many of these sets and can say with certainty that this is the case.
