Hydraulic Hose

A hydraulic hose is specifically designed for hydraulic systems. They convey high-pressure oils or water between the fluid ports of the pumps and actuators, where the oils or water are used to create mechanical movement. They are made up of three different layers: a core or inner tube (Labelled C), a reinforcement layer or inlays (Labelled B), and an outer cover (Labelled A). The inner layer comes in direct contact with the fluid. So, they need to be chemically compatible with the fluid. The reinforcement layer is made up of steel, copper, or textile of high tensile strength. This layer provides the necessary strength to the inner tube and facilitates high-pressure applications. The reinforcements can have a helical, spiral, or braided design. The outer cover of the hose acts as a protective layer and should be compatible with the operating environment.
