Cover strength is a key factor in the long term durability of a hydraulic hose. Harsh working conditions can quickly compromise a hose that has a weak or poorly designed cover. To meet this challenge, hose manufacturers have developed high abrasion resistance covers, commonly known as HARC covers. Flextral offers its ProShield® HARC cover on hoses which characteristically require added protection from abrasion. The ProShield® cover is engineered to resist damage from chafing, rubbing and other hazards.
All Flextral hoses are tested in the lab to ensure they meet the highest standards of quality and durability. Standard Flextral hoses easily compete with hoses from other major manufacturers, and the ProShield® cover adds significantly higher levels of durability to specific hoses that typically need greater protection.
For even more durability, Flextral’s plastic wrap can be wound around the outside of a hose.
Whatever the demands of your working environment, Flextral offers the protective products you need to ensure long lasting, reliable hydraulic hoses. ProShield® is the tough cover that helps keep fluid power systems working under the most stressful conditions.
