The sleeve is a reinforced hose, which is equipped with all kinds of transitional connections, thanks to which it can be mounted to various units, hydraulic systems and mechanisms. In most cases, it is installed on bends and in the presence of mobile elements, for example, to raise the bucket of an excavator.

Such devices, regardless of the popularity of the models, are similar in their design features, despite the variety of manufacturers. They are a structure consisting of several layers:
Layer view | Description |
---|---|
Internal sealing rubber | In the manufacture, rubber is used, which has a special composition, thanks to which the hose becomes airtight, perfectly copes with aggressive environments, does not stretch or deform. |
Metal reinforcing | The main manufacturing materials are wire and high-strength synthetic threads. The number of layers may vary depending on the scope of use of the device. |
Outer protective rubber | The main task is to protect the product from external negative influences, to ensure the strength, durability, and reliability of the hose. |
Despite the varieties, the products are equipped with metal fittings, thanks to which they are connected to various systems.
RVD are of the following types:
The most popular in Russia is braided models due to the fact that winding turns are prone to divergence when bent, therefore they have a larger bending radius than braided ones.
It is worth noting that winding structures withstand increased performance, since in their manufacture the maximum number of layers reaches six pieces, while the braid involves only three layers.
For the manufacture of high pressure hoses, innovative production technologies are used. The process itself involves the passage of the following technological stages:
Products differ from each other in parameters that affect their categorization. The main selection criteria are:
The temperature indicator at which the product is able to function qualitatively is determined by International Standards and ranges from -40 to +100 degrees Celsius.
The value of the bend radius plays a significant role, since the usability of products depends on it. The larger it is, the less functional the pipeline will become. The requirements regarding the bending radius are specified in GOSTs and depend on the category of the product.
Absolutely all popular hose models from the best manufacturers, whether coiled or braided, have their own limiting operating pressure. They are displayed in European standards and in GOSTs used on the territory of the Russian Federation. Many manufacturers have launched the production of hoses for work in extreme conditions, where the temperature reaches -50 or -55 degrees Celsius.
Products are used in almost all high-performance hydraulic systems. Practice shows that the use of this type of product is more efficient and justified than working with rigid metal tubes.
HPH is actively equipped with modern complex equipment, in which there are both pneumatic and oil drives. This is about:
Modern designs of this type guarantee complete tightness during the transportation of all kinds of liquids. The need for auxiliary seals is completely eliminated. The functional hose is selected taking into account the scope of its use and types of systems.
The peculiarities of flexible pipelines are that they have such unique properties that they can function efficiently under any increased loads and in the most aggressive environment.
It should be noted that such devices are developed and produced taking into account increased strength, reliability and long service life. Mistakes in the selection can cause a breakdown of the system, its failure, which will lead to significant financial costs, and possibly to injury to the employees of the enterprise.
The main and sufficient characteristics of the product are determined at the stage of designing a specific system. Any hose has an individual purpose and its misuse will lead to breakage of the entire product.
The main point is to accurately determine the length of the unit. It should be borne in mind that depending on pressure surges, this indicator may vary. When using the product in hydraulic installations, the sleeve will constantly bend and unbend, as well as perform certain movements. The result of such actions is the constant friction of the parts against each other. With rare contact, this equipment will withstand such loads. With frequent friction, it is necessary to replace the sleeve with a shorter one.
The recommendations of experts boil down to the following: determine for yourself which company's product is better, and try not to change the manufacturer. According to buyers, this applies not only to hoses, but also to other components.
What else is worth paying special attention to? The indicator of the maximum allowable pressure in the system. It is necessary to pay attention not only to the value of constant loads, but also to variables that occur due to the turbulence of the system, including jumps of an impulsive plan. It is best to take products with a certain margin.
Which one is better to buy depends on many factors, including the scope of use, as well as the indicator of the aggressiveness of the environment. The best products are included in the rating of high quality and reliable. There are several options for where to buy the necessary equipment. It is best to visit a specialized outlet, get acquainted with new products, understand for yourself what it costs, get advice from a sales manager. If you decide to order products online in the online store, then you should carefully review the proposed photos, read the reviews.
The main scope of hoses is hydraulic and pneumatic structures. They are also widely used in the automotive industry. All drivers know how, thanks to the presence of a built-in hydraulic booster, you can turn the steering wheel without much effort. But with significant operation, deformation of the sleeve and tube may appear, which will lead to instability in the operation of the assembly itself. It is possible to correct the situation on your own or by contacting a service station to specialists.
Motorists are constantly faced with problems in the operation of hydraulics, which inevitably leads to the replacement of the product.The main reasons for the occurrence of an emergency situation are:
It is strictly forbidden to operate the car if the following problems occur:
If the above breakdowns occur, it is worth replacing the sleeve.If you have never done this yourself, step-by-step instructions posted on the Internet will come to the rescue. It clearly and clearly spells out the steps, how to remove, how to replace the device, how to put it back, what accessories will be needed for this.
You can not carry out a complete replacement of the product, but try to repair it. It all depends on the maintainability of a product. A damaged area with scuffs, cuts and cracks can be replaced with a new one. As for the repair of high-pressure hoses at Karcher, experts believe that this matter is almost hopeless. If damage occurs in a straight section, the material is crushed or chopped, then it is quite difficult to purchase a double-sided Christmas tree branch pipe and compress it with your own hands.
