Is the FM040 Thermoplastic Hose with Steel Braided Reinforcement suitable for transferring hydraulic oil, fuels, gases, and water-based fluids across its specified pressure and temperature ranges?

Yes. FM040 Thermoplastic Hose with Steel Braided Reinforcement is suitable for transferring hydraulic oil, fuels, gases, and water-based fluids within its specified pressure and temperature ranges. Its polyester inner layer resists fluid penetration, the steel braid provides required strength and stability for working pressures from 97 to 330 bar (depending on diameter), and the micro-perforated polyurethane outer layer offers abrasion resistance and durability. The operating temperature range of –40°C to +93°C (and up to +65°C for water and air) further supports safe and reliable use across typical hydraulic, fuel, gas, and water-based fluid applications.

Can the FM040 Thermoplastic Hose with Steel Braided Reinforcement be used in both low- and high-pressure hydraulic systems without compromising flexibility or durability?

Yes. FM040 Thermoplastic Hose with Steel Braided Reinforcement is engineered for both low- and high-pressure hydraulic systems without compromising flexibility or durability. Its polyester inner layer resists fluid penetration, while the steel braid reinforcement provides the strength and stability required for demanding and high-pressure applications. The micro-perforated polyurethane outer layer adds abrasion resistance and longevity, maintaining durability in intensive environments. With working pressures from 97 bar to 330 bar depending on diameter, and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +93°C (up to +65°C for water and air), the hose delivers reliable performance, flexibility, and safety across a wide variety of hydraulic oils, gases, air, fuels, and water-based fluids.
