He explains with examples the five most common hydraulic hoses sizes used on small to medium-sized machinery. These sizes are 1/4" 3/8" 1/2" 5/8" and 3/4". We briefly explain their working pressure ratings, as well as show how the hoses are constructed with two layers, braided high tensile Steel Wire (2SN, 100R2), and how it is assembled into a high-pressure hose assembly.

We also briefly explain the benefits of two (2) wire Braided Hydraulic Hose over 1 wire braided hydraulic hose.

Further in the video we give an example on how to identify visually and with the use of Digital Vernier Calipers and Thread Pitch Gauge, common threaded adaptors that allow you to easily connect your high-pressure Hydraulic hose assembly to a variety of high-pressure hydraulic accessories such as, 6 Port Diverter Valves, Inline Relief Valves as well as Dry Break Flat Face quick connect and disconnect couplings.

Finally, we give a brief explanation of how the entire collection of Hose, Hose fittings, adaptors and valves are assembled together into the beginnings of a hydraulic system.
