Hydraulic hose and fittings found on modern diesel trucks can have a limited service life that is directly dependent on the conditions to which they are applied. Continuous use of hydraulic components at maximum working pressure, maximum recommended operating temperature and minimum bend radius can lead directly to premature failure, which could result in damage to personnel and/or equipment, excessive downtime and higher operating costs. Even though hydraulic hose is specially constructed to withstand constant impulses in fuel, air, oil and coolant lines, please note these maintenance tips, courtesy of Gates Corp.
