Description
Product details
The R5 hydraulic hose is specifically designed for low-pressure hydraulic applications. It features a construction that provides flexibility and durability while handling moderate pressures and various environmental conditions. 1. Construction: Inner Tube: Made of synthetic rubber or thermoplastic material, designed to resist hydraulic fluids and maintain flexibility. Reinforcement: Typically reinforced with textile or fabric braid. This provides structural strength and flexibility but is suitable for lower pressure applications compared to hoses with metal wire reinforcement. Outer Cover: Usually constructed from synthetic rubber or thermoplastic material to protect against abrasion, weathering, and environmental factors. This cover also adds to the hose's durability and flexibility. 2. Performance Characteristics: Pressure Rating: Generally rated for lower pressure ranges, around 1500 psi (10 MPa). This makes it ideal for applications where high pressure is not a critical factor. Temperature Range: Often designed to handle temperatures from -40°F to +212°F (-40°C to +100°C), but this can vary based on the specific material and manufacturer specifications. Flexibility: High flexibility due to the textile reinforcement, which allows the hose to bend and twist more easily than high-pressure hoses.
