Parker Hannifn’s Fast-Stor
®
Dura-Flex™
is a new twin-lined non-conductive
hydraulic hose that offers extreme
fexibility due to a coiled design, even in
cold temperatures. The coiled design
is self-retracting, which aids in ease of
handling and storage.
Unlike competitive rubber hoses that
are susceptible to ozone degradation,
cracking, abrasion, and moisture
ingression; Dura-Flex™ has a UV and
ozone-resistant jacket that prevents
such problems. This thermoplastic hose
is 28% lighter than competing rubber
hose assemblies. Dura-Flex™ exceeds
SAE J517 for less than 50 micro-amps
leakage at 75,000 volts per foot. Dura-
Flex™ hose maintains electrical non-
conductivity, keeping the operator safe
from electric shock. Some competitive
rubber hoses do not meet SAE
standards, yet claim to meet their own
specifcation of 100 micro-amps leakage
or less. These products cannot maintain
compliance to industry standards for
electrical non-conductivity after exposure
to feld use.
Product Features:
• Fast-Stor
®
Dura-Flex™ is 28%
lighter than competitive rubber
products, reducing operator fatigue
• Coiled design signifcantly increases
fexibility even in cold temperatures
• Twin-line bonded construction
eliminates the need for tie-wraps,
thus increasing handling safety
• Slippery, high abrasion resistant
jacket resists cracking, UV damage,
and extends service life
• Variety of end connections that
reduce twisting strain on the hose and
operator
• Smooth, non-porous jacket repels
contamination and debris that can
lead to a decrease in electrical
insulation
• Bend restrictors allow hose to bend
freely while reducing kink potential
• Self-retracting design makes for easier
handling and storage
