SAE 100 R8 Thermoplastic Hose

The SAE 100 R8 hose is a high-pressure thermoplastic hydraulic hose designed for applications where compact size, high performance, and non-conductive properties are critical. Constructed with a thermoplastic core and synthetic fiber reinforcement, the R8 hose is ideal for hydraulic systems, paint spraying, and high-pressure cleaning operations. It meets or exceeds SAE J517 performance requirements and is available in both conductive and non-conductive versions.

hose info

SAE 100 R8 hose is a lightweight, high-pressure thermoplastic hydraulic hose built for compact and demanding systems. With excellent flexibility and resistance to chemicals and abrasion, it’s perfect for hydraulic applications, spray coatings, and cleaning equipment.

Specification

Structure

Outside Cover

Thermoplastic outer layer with abrasion-, chemical-, and UV-resistance. Available in conductive (black) or non-conductive (orange) versions.

Reinforcement

Two high-tensile synthetic fiber braids for enhanced burst strength and flexibility.

Inner Tube

Thermoplastic inner tube compatible with petroleum, synthetic, and water-based hydraulic fluids.

Features

High Pressure Performance

Handles high working pressures up to 400 bar, ideal for demanding hydraulic and fluid power applications.

Lightweight & Compact

Smaller OD and lighter weight compared to rubber hoses, reducing system load and improving maneuverability.

Non-Conductive Option

Orange-covered versions offer electrical insulation for use near power lines or sensitive environments.

Chemical & Abrasion Resistant

Thermoplastic cover provides strong resistance to oil, chemicals, abrasion, and weather exposure.

Low Expansion & Precise Control

Minimal volumetric expansion ensures accurate and responsive hydraulic system performance.
