Product Overview
The SAE100 R5 is a high-pressure hydraulic hose designed to excel in demanding fluid conveyance scenarios. Its robust three-layer construction is optimized for strength, flexibility, and resistance to harsh conditions. At the core lies an oil-resistant synthetic rubber inner tube, engineered to prevent fluid leakage and ensure compatibility with a wide range of hydraulic media. Reinforced with a single wire braid—a critical structural component—the hose gains exceptional tensile strength and pressure-bearing capacity, enabling it to withstand intense operational forces. The outer layer features an oil and weather-resistant rubber cover, which shields the hose from abrasion, UV radiation, and environmental wear, extending its service life in both indoor and outdoor settings.
Available in nominal diameters ranging from 5mm (3/16 inch) to 76mm (3 inches), the SAE100 R5 hydraulic hose offers versatility to fit various system configurations. From compact hydraulic circuits to large-scale industrial setups, this hose adapts seamlessly, making it a go-to option for projects that demand consistency and reliability. Every unit adheres to SAE 100 standards, ensuring uniform quality and performance that meets global industrial requirements.
Product Advantage
Superior Pressure Resistance
A standout benefit of the SAE100 R5 is its exceptional pressure-handling capability. The single wire braid reinforcement delivers working pressures (W.P) spanning from 1.4 MPa to 21 MPa, depending on the hose size. For instance, the 5mm (3/16 inch) variant boasts a remarkable 21 MPa working pressure, while the 76mm (3 inch) model maintains a reliable 1.4 MPa. This wide pressure range eliminates the need for multiple hose types, simplifying inventory management and reducing operational costs. Whether used in low-pressure lubrication systems or high-pressure hydraulic power units, the SAE100 R5 ensures stable performance without compromising safety.
Broad Fluid Compatibility
The oil-resistant synthetic rubber inner tube of the SAE100 R5 hydraulic hose enables seamless conveyance of diverse hydraulic fluids. It is fully compatible with glycol-based fluids, mineral oils, lubricants, emulsions, and hydrocarbons—key media in industrial, automotive, and agricultural applications. Importantly, users should note that this hose is not suitable for phosphate ester-based fluids. This broad compatibility makes the SAE100 R5 a flexible solution, reducing the risk of fluid-hose incompatibility and potential system failures.
All-Weather Durability
Engineered to withstand extreme temperatures, the SAE100 R5 operates efficiently in environments ranging from -40℃ to +100℃. When conveying water, it maintains performance between 0℃ and 70℃, making it ideal for both cold and hot working conditions. The weather-resistant outer cover further enhances durability by resisting ozone, sunlight, and physical abrasion, ensuring the hose remains intact even in rugged industrial settings or outdoor installations.
Lightweight and Flexible Design
Despite its robust construction, the SAE100 R5 hydraulic hose features a lightweight design that simplifies installation and maneuverability. Its flexibility allows for easy routing around machinery components, reducing the need for excessive fittings or adapters. This not only saves time during setup but also minimizes pressure drop, optimizing the overall efficiency of the hydraulic system.
