Hydraulic Hoses and Fittings

Hydraulic Hoses and Fittings connect components in hydraulic installations and carry hydraulic fluid under pressure. ERIKS supplies hoses in different types and diameters and can fit couplings, pressure-test assemblies and provide a test certificate.

A hydraulic hose is a flexible connection for transporting hydraulic fluid. Fittings connect the hose to pumps, valves, cylinders or other system components. An assembled hose is pressure-tested at the specified test pressure to check the complete connection.

Hydraulic hoses and fittings are used in hydraulic installations. The range also includes fuel hoses, high-pressure cleaning hoses and hydraulic hose solutions for offshore wind installations operating in extreme conditions.

Select a hydraulic hose according to the medium, required diameter, operating pressure and test pressure. Then check the connections, fitting type and assembly method. Specify whether ERIKS must assemble and pressure-test the hose and provide a test certificate.

Key attributes are hose type, diameter, medium, operating pressure, test pressure, fitting type, connection and assembly method.

Frequently asked questions

Pressure-testing an assembled hose at the specified test pressure checks the complete connection. ERIKS can then supply the tested assembly with a test certificate.

Match the fitting to the existing connection, the hose and the selected assembly method. Also check that the combination suits the medium, diameter and required pressure.

ERIKS supplies hydraulic hoses in different diameters. A complete size series is not stated, so determine the required diameter from the installation and its connections.

Flexion Hammerhead hose solutions are described for offshore wind installations exposed to extreme conditions. Do not automatically apply this specialist solution to other hydraulic installations.
