1/2" R1 HYDRAULIC HOSE 2500 MM LONG BOTH END BSP FEMALE STRAIGHT

The 100 R1 hydraulic hose is a widely used standard in hydraulic systems, known for its durability and flexibility. Here's a more detailed look at the specifications and common applications for this type of hose:

Specifications:

1. Construction:
• Inner Tube: The inner tube is typically made from a synthetic rubber compound, designed to handle high-pressure fluids.
• Reinforcement: It features one layer of high-tensile steel wire braid, which provides strength and flexibility.
• Cover: The outer cover is usually made from synthetic rubber that resists abrasion, weather, and oil.
2. Pressure Ratings:
• The 100 R1 hose is rated for medium pressure applications.
• It typically has a working pressure of around 2320 psi (16 MPa) and a burst pressure of around 5800 psi (40 MPa). These values can vary slightly depending on the manufacturer and specific hose construction.
3. Temperature Range:
• The hose can generally handle temperatures ranging from -40°C to +100°C (-40°F to +212°F). Some hoses can tolerate higher temperatures, but always check the manufacturer's specifications.
4. Sizes:
• Available in various sizes, typically ranging from 1/4 inch to 2 inches in diameter. The specific size you need will depend on your hydraulic system requirements.

Common Applications:

• Agricultural Equipment: Used in tractors, combines, and other farming machinery.
• Construction Machinery: Applied in excavators, loaders, and bulldozers.
• Industrial Equipment: Found in hydraulic presses, injection molding machines, and other industrial applications.
• Automotive: Utilized in various automotive hydraulic systems, including power steering and brake systems.

Key Advantages:

• Flexibility: Provides good flexibility for routing through tight spaces.
• Durability: Resistant to abrasion, oils, and weather conditions.
• Pressure Resistance: Designed to handle moderate to high-pressure hydraulic systems effectively.

Maintenance and Handling:

• Inspection: Regularly inspect for signs of wear, such as abrasions, kinks, or leaks.
• Replacement: Replace hoses that show signs of damage or that have reached the end of their service life.
• Installation: Ensure proper installation practices to avoid kinking or over-tightening of fittings.
