The new hose, GH507-20, meets SAE100R15 requirements and is ideal for cranes, construction machinery, farm machines and static plant. It has a maximum working pressure of 420-bar (6,000psi) for up to 500,000 impulse cycles, previously the domain of 6SP hoses, Eaton said. It can be supplied in a range of different lengths with any of the current internal skive crimp fittings. A new compatible socket is also available.
This, Eaton said, gives the new hose a lighter weight, greater flexibility allowing easier installation, reduced space requirements and a lower cost compared to a 6SP hose.
“The new four-wire GH507-20 hose gives engineers increased flexibility in design options,” said Kristin Fiolka, product manager in the EMEA region for Eaton.
