R6 Oil Hose

Description

The R6 Oil Hose is designed for low-pressure hydraulic oil applications and is used in the transfer of petroleum-based hydraulic fluids. It is commonly employed in hydraulic lines, lubrication systems, and low-pressure circuits in industrial machinery. Known for its lightweight, flexible construction, the R6 oil hose provides excellent performance in low-pressure operations while being resistant to oils and abrasion.

1. Construction

• Inner Tube: The inner tube is made from nitrile rubber (NBR) or synthetic rubber, providing excellent resistance to petroleum-based fluids, hydraulic oils, and lubricants. This material ensures smooth fluid transfer while resisting oil degradation.
• Reinforcement: The hose is reinforced with one high-tensile synthetic textile braid. This lightweight reinforcement offers flexibility, making it easy to handle, while still providing the strength needed for low-pressure operations.
• Outer Cover: The outer cover is made from synthetic rubber, designed to resist abrasion, weathering, and oil exposure. It ensures the hose maintains durability even in demanding environments.

2. Standard Sizes

• Inner Diameter: Typically available in sizes ranging from 1/4 inch (6mm) to 1 inch (25mm), depending on the specific application and hydraulic system requirements.
• Length: Standard lengths range from 10 to 50 meters, with custom lengths available based on specific needs.

3. Working Pressure

• The R6 oil hose is designed for low-pressure applications, with working pressures typically ranging from 40 to 100 bars (580 to 1450 psi), depending on the diameter and construction of the hose.

4. Temperature Range

• The hose operates effectively in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 100°C (-40°F to 212°F), making it suitable for a variety of operating conditions in different climates.

5. Performance Characteristics

• Oil Resistance: The nitrile rubber inner tube offers excellent resistance to petroleum-based oils and hydraulic fluids, ensuring long-lasting performance without swelling or deterioration.
• Flexibility: The lightweight construction and textile braid reinforcement provide excellent flexibility, making the hose easy to install and handle, especially in tight spaces or where mobility is important.
• Durability: The outer synthetic rubber cover is resistant to abrasion, oil, and ozone, ensuring protection against external factors and extending the hose’s service life.
• Low-Pressure Capability: Designed specifically for low-pressure hydraulic systems, the hose delivers reliable performance in lubrication lines, low-pressure hydraulic circuits, and general industrial applications.

6. Applications

• Used for low-pressure hydraulic lines, lubrication systems, and fuel oil transfer in industrial and machinery applications.
• Ideal for mobile equipment, agricultural machinery, and general industrial systems that require oil-resistant, low-pressure hoses.
• Suitable for applications where flexibility and ease of installation are important, especially in confined spaces.

7. End Fittings

• The hose can be fitted with various types of threaded fittings, quick-connect couplings, or crimped fittings, depending on the system’s requirements, ensuring leak-proof and secure connections.
