Utigoflex Hydraulic Hoses: Your Guide to the Perfect Fit
In the world of industrial machinery and mobile equipment, hydraulic systems are the lifeblood, transmitting power with unparalleled efficiency. At the heart of these systems lies a critical component: the hydraulic hose. Selecting the right hose is not just a matter of specification; it’s a decision that impacts safety, productivity, and total cost of ownership.
Since 2009, Utigoflex has established itself as a trusted manufacturer specializing in the production of high-quality hydraulic hoses. Our commitment to excellence is validated by our ISO9001 Quality Management System certification, ensuring consistent performance and reliability in every product we make. Furthermore, all Utigoflex hydraulic hoses are manufactured to comply with stringent MSHA (Mine Safety and Health Administration) standards, making them a safe choice for demanding environments.
Our extensive product range is designed to meet the diverse needs of various industries. Let’s explore the four main categories of Utigoflex hydraulic hoses and their ideal applications.
Steel Wire Braided Hydraulic Hoses: The All-Round Workhorse
Steel wire braided hoses are among the most common types, offering an excellent balance of flexibility, pressure resistance, and cost-effectiveness. They are constructed with one or two layers of high-tensile steel wire braids over a synthetic rubber tube. Ideally applied in industrial machinery, mobile equipment and general hydraulic systems where good flexibility and medium working pressure are required.
Representative Models: SAE100R1, SAE100R2, SAE100 R5, SAE100R16, SAE100R17, EN853 1SN, EN853 2SN, EN857 1SC, EN857 2SC.
Steel Wire Spiraled Hydraulic Hoses: For the Most Demanding Tasks
When applications involve extremely high pressures and pulse cycles, steel wire spiral hoses are the superior choice. They feature four or six layers of spiral-wound steel wire reinforcement, providing maximum strength and exceptional resistance to pressure surges and shock loads. Ideally applied in heavy duty construction and mining equipment ect.
Representative Models: EN856 4SP, EN856 4SH, SAE100R9, SAE100 R12, SAE100R13, SAE100R15.
Textile Braided Hydraulic Hoses: Lightweight and Flexible
Textile braided hoses are reinforced with synthetic fiber yarn. They are significantly lighter and more flexible than wire-reinforced hoses, making them perfect for low to medium-pressure applications where ease of handling and routing is key. Ideally applied in light industrial machinery, lubricating system and automotive application etc.
Representative Models: SAE100R3, SAE100R4, SAE100R6, EN854 1TE, EN854 2TE, EN854 3TE.
Thermoplastic Hydraulic Hoses: Specialized Performance
Thermoplastic hydraulic hoses are constructed with a thermoplastic tube and cover, reinforced with a high-strength synthetic fiber braid. They offer unique advantages like lighter weight, exceptional flexibility, and resistance to kinking and abrasion. They are also known for their compatibility with a wide range of fluids. Ideally used for fuel and lubricate transfer, air and water lines and material handling equipment etc.
Representative Models: SAE100R7, SAE100R8, SAE100R14.
