SPIRAL WIRE

RECOMMENDED FOR Ultra high–pressure, high–impulse applications such as hydrostatic transmissions, for use in the construction, agriculture, forestry, underground or open–pit mining, or other industries on applications where extremely high–pressure capability is required. G8K hose and couplings offer industry–leading bend radius capability, which leads to ease of routing and installation, longer hose life in flexing applications, and fewer bent tube fitting requirements.

TUBE Black, oil resistant Polychloroprene tube material allows for the high pressure, high temperature performance required in these demanding applications. See Hose Stock Characteristics.

REINFORCEMENT Six alternating layers of high–tensile steel wire spiral construction.

COVER Black, oil resistant, synthetic rubber (Polychloroprene), with color coded layline. See Hose Stock Characteristics.

TEMPERATURE RANGE –40°F to +250°F (–40°C to +121°C). For water emulsions see Temperature Limits Table.

COUPLING RECOMMENDATION G8K Couplings (G19) Section D (See Crimp Data Manual 428–7365 or eCrimp) Meets Flame Resistance Acceptance Designation “MSHA 2G”.
