WHAT IS A HYDRAULIC HOSE?
A hose is a flexible tube used to move materials from one location to another.
Hose associated with the general term “Hydraulics Hose” are constructed with a number of components:

Tube – The layer of hose in direct contact with the hydraulic fluid. The tube must be chemically compatible with the fluid. Most
1)
hydraulic tubes are rubber or plastic.

Reinforcement – The layer of hose that supports the tube through normal working pressures. Reinforcement can be braided
2)
wire, spiral wire, textile braid, or textile spiral.

Cover – The layer of hose that protects the reinforcement layer. Hose covers can be rubber, plastic, or a rubber and textile braid.
3)
The cover must be thick enough to protect the reinforcement from abrasion and moisture, but thin enough to retain flexibility.

Tube

Reinforcement Cover

Hose constructions are designed to move hydraulic fluids at normal flow rates, extreme temperatures, and abrasive conditions.

The ID of the tube determines the size of the hose. Different hose constructions will vary with the wall thickness and OD.

Many hydraulic hose constructions are built and tested to meet SAE, ISO, or DIN guidelines.
The following illustration shows a simple hydraulic circuit. Hydraulic hose couplings and adapters connect the pump, valve, cylinder,
and reservoir.

Couplings will be covered in the next module.

HOSE IDENTIFICATION – LAY LINE
Hose Series Working Pressure Industry Size Date Lot Country of
Designation Designation Metric/Inch Code Code Origin

Hose identification is one of the many challenges when replacing a hydraulic assembly. Reference the information printed
on the lay line of a hose regardless of the brand. The replacement hose should meet the industry specifications to equal
the pressure rating, temperature range, and bend radius of the previous hose.

The above illustration is an example of the information found on a hose lay line.
- Manufacturer Name
- Hose Series designation – DR2 04
- Maximum working pressure – 28 MPa (4000 PSI)
- Industry designation - SAE 100R2-AT
- ID of hose in millimeters and inches – 10mm (3/8”)
- Date Code – MM/DD/YY
- Lot Code – F-1 (Identifies the shift on a given day)
- Country of Origin – Made in the USA
- MSHA = Mining Safety and Health Act
- USCG = United States Coast Guard

IMPORTANT: Use the lay line as a visual indicator to avoid twisting the hose during installation. If the lay line is twisted, the
hose is installed incorrectly.

HOW TO READ HOSE PART NUMBERS
Hose part numbers are composed of letter(s) and numbers which identify the hose style, and a two-digit number which
designates the size. The two-digit number always designates the hose ID. The numerical size code follows the industry
standard “dash number” system which represents the hose ID in sixteenths of an inch.

Full Bore Hose – aka Hydraulic sizes Reduced Bore Hose- aka Truck sizes
- Full bore hose has ID in 1/16 inch increments - Reduced bore hose has ID equal to standard steel tubing ID.
- Most hose series are built to the full bore dimensions - Reduced bore hose require special couplings series, or odd sized
Examples of full bore hose: DR1, DR2, DR12, DR16 and DR17 DC couplings.

HOW TO IDENTIFY A HOSE
Identifying a replacement assembly hose can be difficult to decipher but there are steps to help narrow down the choices,
especially if the lay line is visible.

1. Determine the type of equipment.

2. Determine the brand of the equipment.
3. Determine the Country of Origin of the equipment.
4. Determine the purpose of the hose.
5. Ask for the pump psi rating – or at least a reinforcement requirement.
6. Identify the cover of the hose (smooth or rough).
7. Identify the color of the hose (on truck applications).
8. Original hose:
Examine the lay line if possible.
Look for SAE, DIN, or ISO specification number.
Look for a part number or style type (google result).
Look for Size (always keep a caliper on hand to measure the hose OD).
9. Determine what type of fluid is to be transmitted (no gases).
10. Identify the ID or OD (using calipers) and length of hose.
11. Determine the type of reinforcement and number of wire layers or textile braids.

DR12X12 / 010412X DR212 / 010212A

If there are no visible markings on the hose, examine the hose and question the customer about how the hose was used and
subsequently failed. That information could be helpful in identifying the hose. 8
CHOOSING THE RIGHT REPLACEMENT HOSE
-Determine pressure rating of supply pump and fluid pressures
-Review Working Pressure Charts to select proper hose
-Determine operating temperatures (internal and external)
-Determine exposure to elements, pollutants, and environmental concerns
-Examine equipment to determine any exterior flexing, abrasion, direct heat, and routing
-Determine what fluid(s) are being used – petroleum

Most hydraulic hose are rated for -40°F to +212°F temperatures. This is the internal oil temperature, not ambient temperature.

HOW TO SELECT HOSE DIAMETER

See Flow Rate Chart on next page
Given the flow rate in gallons per minute (gpm), or cubic inches per minutes, the customer can determine the proper hose
diameter for either a pressure application or a suction application. A fluid velocity range of 10-15 feet per second is desired for
a pressure application. Two to four feet per second is ideal for a suction application.

Identify the gallons per minute flow rate column on the left side of the chart and the desired velocity on the right side of the chart.
Apply a straight edge to the chart and to connect the points on the left and right sides. The straight edge will cross the hose ID
scale in the center of the chart and identify the hose diameter called out in the center column. If the straight edge crosses at
the non-standard diameter, pick the next larger diameter.

Why is this important?

1. When the flow rate is very high the rapid fluid velocity can actually erode the inner tube from the hose. The damaged tube
will leak and particles of rubber will clog the pump and valve components.

2. Another reason is temperature. If a fluid flows through a hose at a rate higher than 15 feet per second, enough heat can be
generated to shorten the life of the hose.

9
HOW TO USE THIS CHART:
Determine the proper flow rate your
system requires, then connect a straight
edge from the selected flow rate to
the recommended velocity range. The
required hose ID will appear at the
intersection of the straight edge and
the center column. If the straight edge
passes through the scale between sizes
listed, use the next larger ID hose.

Example: The flow rate your system

requires is 10 gallons per minute. Connect
your straight edge from the 10 gallon per
minute flow rate column to the
recommended velocity range for pressure
lines of 10 feet per second (fps). The
straight edge intersects at 5 /8 , so the
recommended hose ID is 5 /8 ”.

10
PRESSURE LINES AND SUCTION LINES
- Always use the middle of the recommended velocity ranges for both pressure and suction lines.

- After establishing the hose diameter the next step is to select the hose series based on the working pressure and
temperature requirements.

- Suction hose are rated for vacuum service in (InHg) inches of mercury. SAE 100R4 hose must be able to withstand a maximum
vacuum of 28 inches of mercury and requires a helical wire in the hose carcass to prevent collapse.

HYDRAULIC APPLICATIONS
Hydraulic hose are used in most industry categories including:
- Agriculture/Timber/Construction Equipment
- Manufacturing
- Transportation

Most hydraulic hose transport oil from one hydraulic component to another.

SAE Spec Hoses

SAE spec hose are available from most hose suppliers and have their own part numbers and proprietary materials and
dimensions.

IMPORTANT: HOSE AND COUPLINGS ARE NOT INTERCHANGEABLE BETWEEN MANUFACTURERS.

SERVICE LIFE OF HOSE
Though there are many of reasons why a hydraulic hose fails, here are some primary reasons that top the list:

• Fluid pressure
• Fluid compatibility
• Temperature
• Concentration
• Duration of exposure
• Improper crimp setting
• Improper crimp fitting inserted depth
• Abrasion
• Bend radius compromises host

IMPORTANT:
DO NOT MIX DIFFERENT MANUFACTURER’S HOSE AND COUPLINGS. USE
RECOMMENDED CRIMP SPECS WITH CRIMP EQUIPMENT.

21
OVERVIEW OF COUPLINGS, ADAPTERS AND HOSE ASSEMBLIES
Couplings
Most hydraulic and specialty hoses have couplings attached. Some textile braid hoses are attached to other system
components using a clamp. All wire reinforced hoses require crimped or reusable couplings.

Adapters
Adapters are used between a hose coupling and a manifold, cylinder, or valve. Adapters convert one style end to a different
style end. Adapters can also be used to change the direction of a connection.

Hose Assemblies
