For many industrial and mobile applications, hydraulic hoses need to withstand extreme conditions, including aggressive liquids, scorching to freezing temperatures, and ultra-high pressure.
Take a closer look at hydraulic hose design for aggressive environments.

*Combating aggressive behavior
 From the most remote, hostile parts of the world to right inside your car engine, hydraulic hoses must contend with extreme conditions to ensure success.
 These hoses transmit industrial fluids that can be aggressive including:
 Motor oils
 Heavy-duty coolants
 Transmission and brake fluids
 Obscure fluids including antifreeze and other glycol-based coolants.

*Beating the heat
 There are three heat variables to consider with a hydraulic hose:
 The liquid temperature inside the hose
 Ambient temperature around the hose
 Nearby operations that could negatively affect the hose

*Fighting off the cold
 Extremely cold temperatures can:
 Cause rubber hoses to stiffen and crack
 Affect the fluid being transferred inside the hose (the fluid can thicken and the flow rate decrease)

*Eliminating high pressure
 Not all challenging applications involve extreme temperatures. The pressure is also an important consideration. A hose’s pressure rating is determined by its reinforcements.
