The hydraulic fittings that we depend on everyday can be found in everything from heavy machinery to shipping ships and production equipment. All these heavy duty gears need hydraulic hoses to safely carry the fluids delivered under pressure to get the job done.
Most of these hydraulic systems also work in tight spaces and require the use of flexible hoses with permanent connections. This permanent connection or hydraulic connection comes from crimped metal collars at the end of the hose. It is important to do this correctly.
The best place to start any hydraulic system project is the advice of an experienced specialist. Careful planning of your design will help you build a more reliable system in less time. That's right, some predictions will make your project more perfect.
Now that you have the right hoses and connections in your hand, let's look at how to pin these fittings and look at reliable and permanent connections.
A quick guide to pressing hydraulic connections
Get a hose pressing machine. After defining the right tool, open the jaws and attach the hose socket to the fitting. Turn the adjustment knob on the pliers until the jaws are wide enough for the fitting to enter the jaws.
Place the hydraulic hose next to the fitting. Then insert the end of the hose even with the end of the metal socket on the fitting. Make a mark on the hose at the socket end of the fitting.
Screw the hose back into its fitting. Continue pushing the hose until it reaches the line you made at the end of the bracelet.
Slide the hydraulic connection socket to the crimping pliers. While tightening the pliers, keep pushing the hose and the fitting towards the jaws. When the fitting is fully compressed, you have finished tightening.
Take a look at your business now. Make sure the pressing is flat and smooth around the entire collar. If there are some abnormalities, you can fix the problem by reinstalling the armature on the crimping tool. Just make a 90 degree turn and press.
It is important to remember that before starting a new hydraulic system structure or replacement, different jobs require different hoses and connections. It is important to choose the right product by understanding what the hydraulic hose will withstand in terms of pressure and in which environment it will operate.
Understanding how to properly press hydraulic hoses allows you to make the special hoses you need for each system. This will help you build better systems and maintain them properly.
