Hydraulink introduces new ENDURO spiral hoses tested to a million cycles with enhanced durability and flexibility for heavy-duty industries
Hydraulic hose, fittings, and service leader, Hydraulink, is introducing a tough new range of hoses, designed to meet the needs of harsh conditions commonly found in mining, forestry, earthmoving, construction, and other heavy-duty industries.
The new ENDURO spiral hose range features an extremely flexible slim profile, with high wear and abrasion resistance due to a SuperTuff (ST) Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) cover for increased protection in severe environments.
“When operating in harsh environments, the last thing you need is gear that isn’t up to the task causing delays and loss of production. The new ENDURO hoses are designed to increase service life, lower maintenance costs, and reduce downtime – without any loss of flexibility or bend radius,” said Denis Matulin, Managing Director, Hydraulink Australia.
Tested to one million cycles
An outstanding feature of the ENDURO range is its testing to one million impulse cycles, and the SuperTuff MSHA cover exceeds ISO standard abrasion resistance by 10 times. The cover also meets flame resistance and antistatic specifications of ISO 6805, MDG41, and RS23 for mining applications.
Additionally, spiral hose is compatible with mineral based and bio-degradable hydraulic fluids. Depending on the size required, the ENDURO range features both four spiral and six spiral wire variants, which all feature flexibility with up to 1/2 SAE minimum bend radius.
“The new ENDURO range has been designed to not just meet, but to well exceed standards, so that they will continue to perform in the harshest of conditions,” said Matulin.
The ENDURO range is backed by Hydraulink’s comprehensive service network, which includes more than 400 service points across Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands.
