high pressure hydraulic hose-Do You Need a Cutting Blade to Cut Hydraulic Hoses?
Cutting hydraulic hoses present a big challenge for operations. These hoses, built to last for years, have to endure high fluid pressures, high temperatures, frequent bending, and pressure cycling.That makes them great for hydraulic systems but poor fodder for cutting blades.Before Hyde Industrial Blade Solutions came along, if you wanted to cut a hydraulic hose you had to use an abrasive wheel. As the name suggests, abrasive wheels are abrasive.How it works…The wheel runs at a high speed to grind away rubber, soft materials, and steel wires in the hose.Yet, all the grinding and melting produces smoke and debris. This smoke and debris often contaminates hydraulic systems. That’s not good.
