Running a hydraulic system on a piece of ag equipment and need something rated for 4000 PSI. This hose got the pressure rating to hold up, and what size fittings does it take?
Answer by: Customer Support on Jan 18, 2026, 8:40 AM
At 4000 PSI max operating pressure, it handles that kind of demand without issue. The hose carries a -8 dash size with a 0.50 inch ID and 0.81 inch OD. For crimping, it's set up for Global TTC steel fittings, so you'll want to match your fittings to that crimp spec when building out your assembly.

got a tight spot to route hose, how tight can i bend this 1/2 inch line without kinking it
Answer by: Customer Support on Feb 14, 2026, 10:23 AM
For a 0.50 inch ID (dash -8) EN857 2SC hose like this one, the minimum bend radius is 3.54 inches. Staying at or above that bend radius helps it flex without putting the reinforcement under too much stress.

What size fittings would I need for this hose?
Answer by: Customer Support on Aug 31, 2025, 7:50 AM
Selection ultimately depends on your system's specific requirements, but this hose has a 0.50 inch inside diameter, so you would typically use fittings sized accordingly. You'll want to verify the thread type and connection style needed for compatibility with your equipment.
