About 4XP Spiral Wire Hose
4XP Spiral Wire Hose
Recommended For: Extremely high-pressure, high-impulse hydraulic applications. Most flexible EN 856 4 SP hose in industry. Superior impulse performance: tested to 1,000,000 impulse cycles at bend radius lower than EN 856 standard. Compatible with biodegradable hydraulic fluids like synthetic ester, polyglycol and vegetable oil as well as standard petroleum-based fluids.
- Tube: Black, oil resistant synthetic rubber (Nitrile)
- Reinforcement: Four alternating layers of spiraled, high tensile steel wire.
- Cover: Black, oil resistant, synthetic rubber (Nitrile)
- Temperature Range: -40°C to +100°C
Superior Pressure PerformanceThanks to multiple high tensile steel wire spirals, the 4XP Spiral Wire Hose delivers exceptional pressure resistance. It handles working pressures up to 5,000 psi and burst pressures up to 20,000 psi, making it ideal for demanding hydraulic applications.
Enhanced Durability and FlexibilityThe hoses abrasion and weather-resistant synthetic rubber cover ensures longevity, while the smooth finish makes it easy to handle and install. Its minimum bend radiustypically ten times the hose diameterenables flexible routing in compact spaces.
Robust Construction for Fluid SafetyDesigned for petroleum-based hydraulic fluids, the hose maintains stability and compatibility. The oil-resistant tube and ozone-resistant cover guarantee safe fluid transfer and reliable performance even in challenging environmental conditions.
FAQs of 4XP Spiral Wire Hose:
Q: How is the 4XP Spiral Wire Hose installed in hydraulic systems?
A: The hose is fitted using hydraulic crimped fittings that securely connect to system components, ensuring leak-free operation and proper transfer of hydraulic fluids.
Q: What type of fluids can the 4XP hose safely handle?
A: This hose is compatible with petroleum-based hydraulic fluids, offering stable and safe performance for fluid transfer in high-pressure hydraulic applications.
Q: When should I choose a hose with four or six steel wire spirals?
A: Select a hose with six wire spirals for maximum pressure requirements. Four spirals provide excellent strength for most hydraulic applications, while six are suitable for extreme pressure conditions.
Q: Where is the 4XP Spiral Wire Hose commonly used?
A: It is used in industrial hydraulic machinery and systems that demand reliable fluid transfer at high pressures, such as construction, mining, and manufacturing environments across India.
Q: What is the recommended process for determining the minimum bend radius?
A: The minimum bend radius should be calculated as ten times the hoses diameter, ensuring the hose operates without stress or damage during installation and use.
Q: How does ozone and abrasion resistance benefit users of this hose?
A: Excellent ozone and abrasion resistance prolongs the hoses lifespan, reduces maintenance needs, and ensures reliable operation in harsh and variable environments.
