The TH7 Hydraulic Hose from Gates is recommended for use with petroleum, water base, and synthetic hydraulic fluids.
The performance requirements of SAE 100R8 are met or exceeded by the TH8 hose, which has a significantly tighter bend radius.
The black polyurethane cover resists hydraulic fluids, high temperatures, aging, and weathering, and is perforated for general hydraulic and pneumatic service.
Synthetic fiber is used for reinforcement.
The tube is 100% seamless nylon - Type Z that handles a broad range of hydraulic fluids, including phosphate esters and water glycol.
The recommended couplings for this hose are MegaCrimp Couplings and Swage PCTS Couplings (-2 and -3).
The temperature ranges are as follows: -65°F to +200°F (-54°C to +93°C) for continuous service with petroleum and synthetic oils, and a maximum of +158°F (+70°C) for water, water/oil emulsions, and water glycol.
