Precautions For Using Hydraulic Hoses

①Hose arrangement should try to avoid heat source and keep away from the performance of engine exhaust pipe. When necessary, a casing or a protective screen can be used to prevent the hose from deteriorating due to heat.

② Where hoses must be crossed or may rub against the mechanical surface during work, protective devices such as hose clamps or springs should be used to avoid damage to the outer layer of the hose.

③When the Metal Hose must be bent, the bending radius should not be too small and should be greater than 9 times the outer diameter. There should be a straight section at the junction of the hose and the joint that is more than 2 times the outer diameter of the pipe.

Hydraulic Hoses

④Hydraulic Hoses should be installed in a tight state. Even if there is no relative movement at both ends of the hose, keep the hose slack. The tensioned hose will expand under pressure and reduce its strength.

⑤Do not twist the hose during installation. A slight twisting of the hose may reduce its strength and loosen the joint. The joint should be tightened on the hose during assembly, not on the joint.

⑥ If the hose is arranged on a key part, it is recommended to check or replace it regularly.
