HOSE TYPES

The rated working pressure of the hydraulic hose must be equal to or higher than the relief valve setting on the hy- draulic system. There are three types of hydraulic hose that meet this requirement and are authorized for use with Stanley Hydraulic Tools. They are:

Certified non-conductive— constructed of thermoplastic or synthetic rubber inner tube, synthetic fiber braid reinforcement, and weather resistant thermoplastic or synthetic rubber cover. Hose labeled certified non- conductive is the only hose authorized for use near electrical conductors.

Wire-braided(conductive) — constructed of synthetic rubber inner tube, single or double wire braid reinforce- ment, and weather resistant synthetic rubber cover. This hose is conductive and must never be used near electrical conductors.

Fabric-braided(not certified or labeled non-conductive) — constructed of thermoplastic or synthetic rubber in- ner tube, synthetic fiber braid reinforcement, and weather resistant thermoplastic or synthetic rubber cover. This hose is not certified non-conductiveand must never be used near electrical conductors.

HOSE SAFETY TAGS

To help ensure your safety, the following DANGER tags are attached to all hose purchased from Stanley Hydraulic Tools. DO NOT REMOVE THESE TAGS.

If the information on a tag is illegible because of wear or damage, replace the tag immediately. A new tag may be obtained from your Stanley Distributor.
