hose is rated for Skydrol fluids right? we run LD4 on our ramp equipment and need something that ain't gonna break down on us
Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 11, 2025, 3:00 PM
Skydrol LD4 is one of the fluids this hose is specifically built to handle. It also covers Skydrol 500B and Hyjet IVA Plus, so phosphate ester base fluids are squarely in its wheelhouse. The EPDM tube is what makes that compatibility possible since standard rubber compounds tend to degrade fast with those fluids. At a 0.50 inch ID and rated up to 3500 PSI, it's got the pressure capacity for most ground support equipment demands.

What's the smallest circle I can bend this hose into without kinking it?
Answer by: Customer Support on Oct 21, 2025, 11:55 AM
The minimum bend radius for this hose is 7 inches. Keep that in mind when routing it, especially in tight spots.

got a ground cart that runs Skydrol, is this hose actually meant for that stuff?
Answer by: Customer Support on Apr 22, 2025, 8:09 PM
For phosphate ester base fluids, this hose is a good match. It is specifically called out for Skydrol LD4, Skydrol 500B, and Hyjet IVA Plus, using an EPDM tube and cover that are suited to that type of fluid.
