When you're tired of throwing your hydraulic hoses in the trash, and your money down the drain!
 
Gates abrasion resistant MegaTuff™ cover is now available on eight heavy-duty hydraulic hoses.

Made of special hybrid compounds, the new cover material has been tested to last up to 300 times longer than standard rubber covered hoses. This feature increases service life, lowers maintenance, and eliminates the need for costly hose protectors such as guards, sleeves and bundling.

Typical applications are mining, injection molding, rock quarries and construction.

Unlike ordinary hydraulic hose, MegaTuff do not need nylon sleeving - an accessory that can hide hose damage until it's too late. Unloading these extras translates into significant cost savings.

Hydraulic hoses available with the MegaTuff cover have pressure ratings up to 6,000 psi. ID sizes are from 1/4- to 1-inch in the wire braid construction, and from 3/8- to 2-inches in spiral wire. Most are designed with a half SAE bend radius.
