Hydraulic hose is built from an inner rubber tube, steel wire reinforcement layers and an outer protective cover; the reinforcement construction is what determines pressure capability. One wire braid (1SN/R1) and two wire braid (2SN/R2) types serve medium and high pressure lines, while four and six layer spiral wound types are used in impulse-heavy, heavy duty applications. As well as working pressure, the minimum bend radius must be respected when routing — hose installed tighter than this figure fatigues early. Yilsa Engineering prepares hose assemblies to the required length and end fitting combination.
