    How does a wire braided hydraulic hose work?

    In a wire braided hydraulic hose, the braided reinforcement around the inner tube helps carry the pressure load. Selection is not made by the number of braids alone; hose type, size, pressure, temperature, impulse condi…

    Differences between single and double wire braid

    Single and double wire braid distinguish the construction of the reinforcement layers; on their own they do not indicate a specific working pressure. Comparisons should be made at the same size, and the products' actual…

    The selection logic for compact hydraulic hoses

    Compact hydraulic hoses are designs that, in certain series, meet tighter installation requirements. For 'compact', the outside diameter, minimum bend radius and fitting system must be examined per product; it is not as…

    Using textile reinforced hydraulic lines

    In textile reinforced hydraulic hoses, the load-bearing structure may consist of suitable fibers instead of metal wire. The pressures and fluids it is used with are determined per series. The term textile reinforcement …

    Selecting the outer cover of a hydraulic hose

    The outer cover is selected for abrasion, weather, ozone, oil contact or other external effects. The fluid compatibility of the inner tube and the resistance of the outer cover are separate matters. A durable cover does…
