Pressure Ratings

At Keen's Machine Repair, we understand the importance of considering pressure ratings for choosing the best-suited hose. That is why our experienced technicians will identify your current hose pressure and make sure your new hose meets or exceeds that pressure to ensure that there are no interruptions in the hydraulic flow.

Required Temperature

The second most important factor to consider for your custom-made hydraulic hoses is the temperature rating of your system. To ensure zero disruptions in your hydraulics system, our technicians consider the media temperature as well as the ambient temperature. Our team will ensure that your hydraulic hose either meets or exceeds the median and ambient temperatures.

Hose Application

When customizing the hose for your use, our team will ask you about the possible applications of your hydraulics system. This helps them understand the kind of equipment the hydraulic hose will be used on. They will also identify any environmental factors that need to be considered when developing the hose for your system.

Our team understands that certain hydraulics systems have specific hose requirements. So, our technicians consider the routing, chances of abrasion, and other factors beforehand.

Size Needed

Lastly, our team will focus on the size of the hose needed. One of the essential requirements of your hydraulics system is receiving the right flow velocity within in. Since this is largely dependent on your hydraulic hose, our team considers all of the factors needed to size your hose perfectly.

If the hose is too small, it will result in a low flow that can diminish the work efficiency of your hydraulics system. On the other hand, a hose that is too large will cause pressure drops, internal damage, and even leaks. These issues can result in hefty repairs and increased downtime for your system.

That is why you need the services of Keen's Machine Repair for your hydraulics system. We offer perfectly-sized hoses made in-house so you can make the most of your hydraulics system!
