Hydraulic Hose Specifications and Installation Guide
Proper installation of the hose is critical, if the hose is too long, it will not only affect the appearance, but also increase the cost. If the hose is too short, when it expands or contracts under pressure, there is not enough room for expansion and contraction, which will cause the hose to be damaged. The following figures show the matters needing attention when installing the hose, which can achieve the best working effect and prolong the life of the hose.
When installing the hose, do not twist it or it will break the hose or loosen its connection when under pressure.
When installing a straight pipe, a loose position should be reserved so that it will not be stretched or even broken when it is moved under pressure.
When the hose is compressed, its length changes, so do not add any clamps to the bend to allow it to move freely.
When the bending radius is too small, right-angle joints should be used to avoid sharp bends in the hose.
In order to avoid damage to the hose and restricted flow, the bending radius of the hose should be as large as possible.
