Thermoplastic Hydraulic Hoses

Oct. 12, 2018
Kurt Hydraulics' thermoplastic hoses are designed for medium to high pressure applications.

Thermoplastic hose is designed for medium to high pressure applications with robust, yet flexible design for use in constricted system configurations. The line covers SAE 100R7, SAE 100R8, and SAE 100R18 thermoplastic hose with an operating temperature from -40 to 212°F. The urethane protective covering is abrasion, ozone, and weather resistant.

               

The SAE R100R7 is a nylon hose ideal for medium pressure hydraulic systems, such as machine tool applications and lift equipment. The R7 hose offers a unique construction of thermoplastic nylon inner tube, synthetic textile braiding as reinforcement, and an orange urethane cover. The R7 hose hydraulic hose is rated between 1,000 and 3,000 PSI working pressure, and 4000 and 12,000 PSI minimum burst pressure. The R7 hose is available in eight sizes between 1/8 I.D. and 1-in. I.D., and is also available in twin line hoses.

 

The SAE 100R8 and SAE 100R18 thermoplastic nylon hoses are ideal for high pressure hydraulic systems, and suited for use in agricultural, plant maintenance equipment, construction equipment similar applications. These hoses offer a unique construction of thermoplastic nylon inner tube, unique internal reinforcements, and a black urethane cover. The R8 is rated between 3,500 and 5,000 PSI working pressure and 14,000 and 20,000 PSI minimum burst pressure. The R8 hose is available in four sizes from 3/16 to ½-in. I.D., and is also available in twin line hoses.

 

Kurt Hydraulics provides a full line of hose products including custom, multi-hose setups. These multi-hose designs can include as many as the application requires.

 

To complete the hose connection properly, Kurt Hydraulics offers the most complete line of couplings and fittings. They offer the R7 coupling line for use with its thermoplastic hose products. This line includes both crimped and swaged varieties.
