Key Features
SAE 100R12 hydraulic hoses are known for their durability and pressure resistance. Some of the main features include:
- High Pressure Rating: These hoses are designed for extremely high-pressure hydraulic systems, handling pressures up to 4,000 PSI or higher, depending on the size.
- Reinforced Construction: SAE 100R12 hoses feature four layers of spiral-wound steel wire reinforcement, providing superior strength and pressure tolerance.
- Temperature Range: These hoses can operate in temperatures ranging from -40°F to 250°F (-40°C to 121°C), ensuring performance in both cold and hot environments.
- Abrasion-Resistant Cover: The outer cover is designed to resist wear and tear from harsh working conditions, ensuring longer service life.
Construction
The construction of SAE 100R12 hoses follows strict industry standards to ensure performance and durability. These hoses typically consist of:
- Inner Tube: Made from oil-resistant synthetic rubber, this layer ensures compatibility with hydraulic fluids such as petroleum-based oils, synthetic oils, and glycol-based fluids.
- Reinforcement: Four spiral layers of high-tensile steel wire reinforcement provide the hose with excellent strength and pressure resistance.
- Outer Cover: The cover is made from synthetic rubber that is highly resistant to abrasion, weathering, and ozone, protecting the hose from external damage.
