if your hose request can not be made following instructions on this page, then please order fittings by parts number, and email assembly instructions
STEP 1: HOSE SIZE
Only 2 wire hose, only SAE100R2AT, start your order number with
“hose – ” then
diameter 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 3/4
dash “-“
length overall in mm
[should look something like: “hose – 3/8 – 1000 –
step 2: hose connection system
Only the most common systems are listed here: BSP (common in UK, AU, NZ gear), JIC (common in USA gear), Metric (rest of the world and more common in modern gear). Check the pictures, each system has male and female threads. In all systems the female thread is by far more common on the hose, the male thread is used in the adapter which is screwed into the implement/machine/valve cylinder etc.
IMPORTANT: HOSE ORDER ASSUMES FEMALE THREAD ON THE HOSE END, PICTURES ON THE LEFT SIDE
BSP SYSTEM
JIC SYSTEM
METRIC SYSTEM
STEP 3 THREAD TYPE AND SIZE
Continue the part number with system (BSP, JIC, MET) and thread. To get the thread, measure the “D” or “d”, do not use the measurement directly, put down the corresponding thread (bold letters in the tables).
for example – MET 24
step 4 angle fitting option
If the end needs to be an angled fitting, add -9 for 90 degrees or -4 for 45 degrees (45’s are not very common, we may not have stock)
step 5: if ends are different
if ends are different, repeat steps 3 and 4.
if both ends have angle fittings you need to specify relative direction, add -angle-<angle in degrees>
Orientation of Fittings
Proper positioning of elbow end fittings on a hose is governed by the offset angle, or the amount of angular offset between connecting parts in the installation.
If this angle of the Hose Orientation is not correct in the construction of a hose assembly the performance and life of the assembly will be greatly reduced.
How to Measure Hose Orientation
Hose Orientation is determined by the number of degrees measured in a clockwise direction.
To measure the orientation angle look along the hose with the furthest fitting (A) away from the viewer and the nearest fitting (B) closest to the viewer.
Fitting (A) must be set at 0 Degrees.
If no angle is given elbows are positioned at 0 Degrees.
step 6 check the parts number
your parts number should read something like
hose-3/8-1000-bsp 3/8
a simple 1m long hose.
hose-3/8-1000-bsp3/8-9-met24 (a 1 meter long hose with one end a bsp 90 and the other end a straight metric)
