How To Select A Hose (STAMPED)
Size
The appropriate inside and outside diameters and length of
the hose should be determined
Temperature
The maximum temperature of the material being conveyed
Application
External conditions including abrasion, climate, heat, flexing,
crushing, kinking, and degrees of bending
Media
The composition of the substance being conveyed and
chemical compatibility with the hose inner core and, if
applicable, the outer jacket
Pressure
The maximum pressure of the system, including pressure spikes
Ends
The appropriate end connection and attachment method for the
application
Delivery
Testing, quality, packaging, and delivery requirements
Hybrid Hoses
Manufacturing Process
- Robust design and materials minimize in-service problems and maximize
service life.
Elastomeric Tube
- Provides a clean tube excellent for fluid/chemical compatibility and minimizes the need
for expensive cleaning of hose assemblies.
Wire Braided Reinforcement
- Wire braids increase pressure ratings, create tight bend radii – excellent cut
through resistance.
Synthetic Rubber Cover
- Hybrid hoses have a smooth cover that looks like traditional hydraulic hose.
Additionally, these hoses complement the look of OEM equipment.
Smaller OD
- Compact designs allow tighter bend radius characteristics and work well in small
enveloped areas.
Long Lengths
- Long length hybrid hoses reduce the number of short unusable hose lengths and thereby
save money in the long run.
2-Braid Construction
- The 2-braid hybrid hose construction takes the place of traditional 4-spiral wire hose
and offers a slimmer profile, lighter weight, and longer lengths.
Widely Accepted
- Proven performance over many years.
