In demanding environments, hydraulic hoses face extreme conditions that can lead to premature wear and potential failure. The Silicone Coated Fiberglass Sleeve offers a robust solution to protect hydraulic hoses from heat, abrasion, and chemical exposure, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.

Key Benefits

1. High Temperature Resistance: The silicone coating provides excellent thermal insulation, allowing the sleeve to withstand temperatures up to 500°F (260°C). This protects hoses from heat damage and reduces the risk of failure.

2. Abrasion Protection: Made from durable fiberglass, the sleeve offers superior resistance to abrasions and impacts, safeguarding hoses from external damage during operation.

3. Chemical Resistance: The silicone coating enhances the sleeve's ability to resist oils, fuels, and other chemicals, making it ideal for use in industrial and automotive applications.

4. Easy Installation: The flexible design allows for quick and easy installation over existing hydraulic hoses without the need for disconnection, minimizing downtime during maintenance.

5. Customizable Sizes: Available in various diameters and lengths, the silicone coated fiberglass sleeve can be tailored to fit a wide range of hydraulic hose sizes and configurations.

Real-World Applications

• Automotive: Protects hydraulic lines in high-performance vehicles, ensuring reliability under extreme conditions.
