R8 Hoses

R8 hoses are a specific type of thermoplastic hydraulic hose designed for low to medium pressure applications. Unlike R7 hoses, which are reinforced with synthetic fiber braids, R8 hoses typically feature a thermoplastic inner tube reinforced with a single layer of braided aramid fiber or polyester. These hoses are known for their flexibility, making them ideal for applications where tight bends or compact routing is required. The thermoplastic construction also provides resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and weathering, ensuring durability in challenging environments.
