The Flextral FH-32 (FH-32) is a robust hydraulic hose designed for high-temperature applications, particularly in environments requiring the transportation of petroleum-based fluids, water-oil emulsions, or water glycol solutions. This hose is built to meet or exceed the stringent performance requirements of SAE 100R5 and D.O.T. FMVSS 106 standards, ensuring reliability and safety in its applications. The FH-32 features an internal diameter of 1.8125 inches and an external diameter of 2.22 inches (56.40 mm), making it suitable for a variety of hydraulic systems. Constructed with a seamless, black, oil and heat-resistant synthetic rubber tube, the FH-32 is reinforced with one braid of synthetic yarn and one braid of steel wire, providing excellent strength and durability. The cover is a blue, impregnated textile braid that is oil and mildew resistant and approved by MSHA for mining applications. It can handle temperatures ranging from -40°C to 150°C (-40°F to 302°F) for petroleum-based fluids, up to 107°C (225°F) for water-oil emulsions or water glycol solutions, and up to 42°C (180°F) for phosphate ester fluids. The hose comes in lengths ranging from a minimum of 12 inches to a maximum of 1200 inches, with weights starting at 0.90 lbs per foot, facilitating flexible usage across various installation needs. Its minimum bend radius is set at 13.3 inches (337 mm), allowing for installation in tight spaces without compromising hose integrity or performance. Applications of the FH-32 include use in high-temperature hydraulic systems where medium pressure service is required along with compatibility with different types of lubricating oils under varied temperature conditions. The SAE J1942/1 USCG H acceptance marks its suitability for marine applications as well.
