Choosing The Right Hydraulic Hose & Fitting Replacements In The Australian Climate
How Harsh Conditions Impact Hydraulic Hose Performance
Hydraulic systems work under constant pressure, and even minor environmental stress can shorten the life of hoses and fittings. Machinery used for farming, earthmoving or construction often faces extreme cycles of heat, dust, moisture and heavy workloads. These conditions place more strain on hydraulic components than many operators realise.
Climate exposure does not always create sudden problems. Instead, it gradually weakens rubber compounds, reinforcement layers and fittings until the system reaches a failure point. Understanding what...
