SAE 100R2 Hose

Description

• Construction: The SAE R2 hydraulic hose is typically constructed with multiple layers of materials to meet the specific demands of hydraulic systems. It features an inner tube, a reinforcement layer, and an outer cover, similar to most hydraulic hoses.
• Inner Tube: The inner tube of the SAE R2 hose is typically made from synthetic rubber materials that are compatible with hydraulic fluids, including mineral oils, water-based fluids, and synthetic oils. This inner layer serves as a barrier to contain the hydraulic fluid and prevent leakage.
• Reinforcement Layer: The SAE R2 hydraulic hose is known for its double high-tensile steel wire braid reinforcement. This double braid design provides enhanced strength and flexibility, allowing the hose to handle high-pressure hydraulic fluids without bursting or leaking.
• Outer Cover: The outer cover is made from a synthetic rubber compound that is resistant to abrasion, weather conditions, and environmental factors. It protects the inner layers from external damage and extends the hose’s service life.
• Pressure Rating: SAE R2 hydraulic hoses are designed to handle medium to high-pressure hydraulic systems. The pressure rating typically falls within the range of 3000 to 5000 psi (pounds per square inch), depending on the manufacturer and specific variations.
• Temperature Range: These hoses are designed to operate within a specific temperature range, often from -40°C to 100°C (-40°F to 212°F), although this can vary depending on the manufacturer and the specific materials used.
• Application: R2 hydraulic hoses are suitable for a wide range of hydraulic applications in various industries, including construction, agriculture, manufacturing, and more. They are commonly used in hydraulic systems that require high-pressure fluid transfer, such as in hydraulic machinery, earthmoving equipment, and industrial power units.
• Compatibility: R2 hoses are designed to work with a variety of hydraulic fluids, including mineral oils, water-based fluids, synthetic oils, and some biodegradable hydraulic fluids. However, it’s essential to ensure compatibility with the specific fluid used in your application.
