Hydraulic hoses are integral in ensuring the smooth flow of hydraulic liquid within machinery. A hydraulic hose burst is costly and can stall significant projects, thus hindering productivity and, at times, safety. While hydraulic hose failure can happen to any organization, the good news is they are avoidable. Here Are Five Ways To Prevent Hydraulic Hose Failure #1 Use the correct fluid Using the incorrect fluid can be very risky in hydraulics because it tends to cause deterioration of hose assembly parts and promote swelling of the hoses. Often, the temperature changes when the wrong fluid is used, which spirals... View Article
Hydraulic systems today have many purposes and functions in the manufacturing industry. For your hydraulic systems and equipment to work properly, many parts will need to work together. One important part of any hydraulic system are the hydraulic hoses, which help to move water through the system. While these hoses are durable and built to last a long time, they do need to be replaced at some point. There are various signs that you need hydraulic hose replacement. End of Useful Life When you have a hydraulic system, it is important to know how long each part is expected to... View Article
A few factors should be considered to maintain a hydraulic pump in the right working conditions. Hydraulic hose burst is a common issue faced by operators using excavators. However, it shouldn’t be a problem if the entire hydraulic system is sound, leading us to look into the five common reasons for hydraulic failure. 1. Tube Erosion With a high velocity of concentrated fluids passing through the internal tubes, erosion is possible as there might be particles that will gradually erode the inner tube. As the slow inner tube erosion occurs, it’s easy for an external leak to develop. 2. Fluid Incompatibility Not... View Article
