Message: [QUOTE="Garbage_Mechanic, post: 864452, member: 1610"] I'm really not trying to rain on your parade here, just trying to keep you and others safe. I'm not sure your hose supplier did you a favor here. Yes, the working pressure is 5,800 and the the burst pressure is 23,200 lbs. But there are many factors to hose life. SAE 100R2 is a basic hose. I don't have time right now to refresh my self on 100R2 but I know I have used it for engine oil hoses for instance for a remote oil cooler or trans cooler lines and it was a poor choice. The life isn't there. HOT engine oil is not the same as a hydraulic system! This hose is ok by the pressure specs but the life won't be there. And sorry to say, in my experience Weatherhead is not as technically advanced as Parker or Aeroquip, with Gates third and the others bringing up last place. 35 years of hydraulics and cutom equipment taught me some lessons. I'd sure like to get my hands on the hose or assembly part # for an original line! [/QUOTE]
