Nominal I.D.

The nominal interior dimension of the hose in inches.

Part Number

This column shows part numbers to be used when ordering.

Braid Layers

This column shows the number of wire braid covering(s) required for the indicated pressure rating.

Braid Construction 

Term applies to description of braid, i.e., 36 x 9 x. 016

36 = number of carriers or bands in a braid

9 = number of wires on each carrier
.016 = wire diameter in inches

 

Braid Coverage  

The percentage of area covered by wire when referenced to the total cylinder surface area of the hose. 95% coverage 

means that only 5% of the area is not covered by wire.

 

Nominal O.D.

The nominal exterior dimension of the hose in inches.

Pressure Ratings

The maximum working, maximum test and nominal burst pressures for each hose size are shown with welded on fittings. 

All pressures listed in this catalog have been reduced by 20 percent to account for welding as the method of attachment.

Centerline Bend Radius – Dynamic 

This column states, in inches, the minimum bend radius to which a hose may be bent when installed in conditions of 

motion that occur on a regular or intermittent basis.

Centerline Bend Radius – Static  

This column states, in inches, the minimum bend radius to which a hose size may be bent when installed in conditions 

of no movement other than infrequent vibrations.

Weight

This column shows approximate weight per foot for each size and is given in pounds per foot.
