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.
