Common Hydraulic Hose Issues

• Abrasions: As hydraulic hoses contract and stretch, they may rub against other components, resulting in abrasions that create wear and tear and cause leaks.
• Heat aging: When hydraulic hoses are exposed to high temperatures, they can lose their flexibility and stiffen, making it more likely for them to crack and leak.
• Tube erosion: Hydraulic hoses can deteriorate as concentrated high-velocity fluid streams flow through because the fluids gradually erode the inner tubes.
• Bends near fittings: Due to poor routing or the hose's weight, hydraulic hoses can bend by the fitting where the hose and crimp seal meet, which wears the tube and creates leaks.
• End of service life: Hydraulic hoses generally have a service life of about five to six years, and as they age, they become brittle and crack.
• Twists and kinks: Poor routing, hose weight and other factors may cause your hydraulic hoses to twist, bend, kink or become crushed, which can damage your hoses' structural integrity and cause leaks.
