Proper Hose Assembly Guidelines


#FluidPowerWebinar

Hydraulic hoses exist on nearly every hydraulic machine. It is critical to ensure hose assemblies are fabricated with care to ensure reliability of the hose and the hydraulic system they’re part of. This presentation covers the essentials of hydraulic hose assembly to ensure the machine is safe and dependable.

Important First Step Alert!


#FluidPowerWebinar

Identify what you need


#FluidPowerWebinar



Is it a new hose assembly?

#FluidPowerWebinar



Is it a new hose assembly?

Is it a replacement hose assembly?

#FluidPowerWebinar

New hydraulic hose assemblies should be

chosen with consideration to their specific application

Size T A M P E D


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size -includes the ID, OD and length


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size -includes the ID, OD and length -hose must be sized appropriately to handle flow with little pressure drop


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size -measured length is critical


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size -cut off length is subtracted to obtain hose cut length


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size -the cut off factor of each fitting is subtracted from total hose length


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size Temperature A M P E D


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size Temperature -what is the temperature of the fluid? -what is the ambient temperature?


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size Temperature -typical hydraulic hose is good for -40°F to 212°F (-40°C to 100°C)


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size Temperature -high temperature hose is good for 300°F plus -for high ambient temperatures


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size Temperature -low temperature hose is good for -58°F to 212°F -for cold ambient conditions


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size Temperature Application M P E D


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size Temperature Application -where is the hose used? -what is the required bend radius?

Size Temperature Application -where is the hose used? -what is the required bend radius?


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size Temperature Application -what are the external conditions? -is there a risk of abrasion, corrosion or electrical conductivity?


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size Temperature Application Material P E D


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size Temperature Application Material -the type of fluid being used is critical to hose selection


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size Temperature Application Material -standard mineral-based hydraulic fluid is compatible with most hose types


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size Temperature Application Material -exotic fluids, like phosphate ester, require synthetic hoses, like EPDM


#FluidPowerWebinar

Size Temperature Application Material Pressure E D


#FluidPowerWebinar

-pressure capacity is the defining criteria for hydraulic hose -pressure dictates construction Pressure E D


#FluidPowerWebinar

-hose construction dictates the pressure capacity of a hydraulic hose

#FluidPowerWebinar

What if you are replacing and old hose?


#FluidPowerWebinar

-do not try to repair the old hose, unless absolutely necessary -follow the STAMPED protocol to ensure the correct replacement is made


#FluidPowerWebinar

Cutting the hose -ensure only a specialized hose cutting saw is used


#FluidPowerWebinar

Cutting the hose -ensure only a specialized hose cutting saw is used


#FluidPowerWebinar

Cutting the hose -ensure you cut exactly 90° across the hose


#FluidPowerWebinar

Crimp the hose to the specifications spelled out by the hose and fitting manufacturer

#FluidPowerWebinar

Clean the hose assembly


#FluidPowerWebinar

Clean the hose assembly -use approved hose cleaning apparatus -immediately cap the hose ends to protect from environmental contamination
