SAE 100 R8 Orange Non-Conductive

SAE 100 R8 Orange Non-Conductive hose is a high-pressure thermoplastic hydraulic hose specifically designed for applications where electrical conductivity needs to be avoided. This hose is suitable for hydraulic systems in industrial, mobile, and electrical environments, where both high-pressure performance and non-conductive properties are critical for safety.

Key Features

• Non-Conductive Construction: The hose is designed to prevent the flow of electricity, making it safe for use in environments near electrical equipment.
• High-Pressure Resistance: Like standard SAE 100 R8 hoses, it is engineered to withstand medium to high-pressure hydraulic systems.
• Thermoplastic Composition: Features a thermoplastic inner tube and an outer cover that is resistant to hydraulic fluids.
• Reinforced with Synthetic Fibre: The high-tensile synthetic fibre reinforcement ensures that the hose can handle the high pressures typical of modern hydraulic systems.
• Bright Orange Colour for Identification: The outer cover is bright orange, which provides immediate identification of the hose as non-conductive.
• Abrasion and Weather Resistance: The hose’s outer layer is highly resistant to abrasion, UV radiation, and various weather conditions.
• Wide Operating Temperature Range: The hose operates within a broad temperature range of -40°C to +93°C.

Benefits

• Electrical Safety: Specifically designed to avoid electrical conductivity, the non-conductive hose reduces the risk of electrical shocks or short circuits when used near live electrical systems or equipment.
• Durability and Longevity: The abrasion-resistant and weather-resistant outer cover enhances the hose’s durability.
• High-Pressure Capabilities: The hose is suitable for medium to high-pressure hydraulic applications.
• Ease of Identification: The distinctive orange colour ensures quick identification, reducing the risk of using a conductive hose.
• Flexibility in Tight Spaces: The thermoplastic construction and fibre reinforcement provide excellent flexibility, making the hose easy to route and install.
• Cost-Efficiency: With its long lifespan, reduced maintenance needs, and enhanced safety features, this hose helps lower operating costs.
• Resistant to Hydraulic Fluids: Compatible with a wide range of hydraulic fluids, including petroleum-based, water-based, and synthetic oils.
