Hydraulic hoses are some of the most important components of hydraulic and pneumatic systems. They carry hydraulic fluid between different parts of the system. Hydraulic hoses are fairly complicated devices, as they contain several different components within them. The most important and most complex portion of a hydraulic hose is likely its fitting. Each hydraulic hose needs to connect to its respective hydraulic device, and the fitting is the connection point. To find the correct fitting, you’ll likely need to consult a hydraulic fitting size chart. Below we’ll offer some assistance in finding the proper fitting for your hydraulic hose.... View Article

Hydraulic systems require fluid, and this fluid often needs to be transferred from one port to another. The ideal way to transport hydraulic fluid between components is with a hydraulic hose. Hydraulic hoses are intricate pieces of equipment that need to be strong enough to withstand harsh conditions, but flexible enough to bend around corners and fit into tight spaces. But like all equipment, hydraulic hoses have a finite shelf life. Eventually you’ll need to either repair your current hydraulic hose or buy a new one. Therefore, it’s valuable to know how to replace a hydraulic hose and how to... View Article

A pressure regulator is essential to maintain appropriate water pressure in your home. The water pressure regulator valve indicates the current pressure and how well the regulator is working to maintain that pressure. Sometimes these pressure regulators fail. Understanding how and why they fail can help you avoid issues with your pressure regulator and keep your family safe from pressure-related problems. Where is the pressure regulator? Not every home has a pressure regulator, but most modern homes do. If you locate the main shutoff valve on your main water line, you should find the pressure regulator. This will look like...

Size is everything when it comes to hydraulic hoses. This is because the hose size affects both the flow rate—the volume of hydraulic fluid produced by the pump—and flow velocity—the speed at which the fluid travels. A hose that’s either too small or too large for a hydraulic system creates inefficiency within the system, or could even lead to long-term damage. Because hydraulic hose sizes are such a necessary part of any hydraulic system, we’ve put together this post to help you better understand everything about hose sizing: Inner diameter: Also known as the ID, the inner diameter is the...
