Applications

  • Medium pressure hydraulic service where both field attachable and permanent hydraulic circuit exposure and contact with high voltage may be encountered

Construction

  • Tube: Copolyester
  • Reinforcement: Fiber
  • Cover: Proprietary Blend (PFX)

Operating Parameters

Temperature Range:

  • -40°F to +212°F (-40°C to +100°C)
  • (Limited to +135°F (+57°C) for synthetic hydraulic fluids and water-based fluids)
Change in working length @ Rated WPSI: ±2%
Min. Burst Pressure:
  • 4:1 Design Factor is required if hose failure will result in movement of aerial device
  • 3:1 Design Factor is acceptable if hose failure will not result in movement of aerial device
  • Operating Parameters (cont.)
  • SAE requires 4:1 Design Factor

Colors

  • Orange

Fittings

Notes

  • Non-perforated cover
  • Lay lines on this hose will have both ANSI and SAE maximum working pressure listed. ANSI A92.2-1990 “Vehicle Mounted Elevating and Rotating Aerial Devices”
  • *3/16” and 1/4” working pressure reduced to 3,000 and 2,750 PSI respectively when using field attachable couplings 
  • 51 Series field attachable couplings are not intended for use on hose that has previously been in service
