Checking the aging degree of hydraulic hose is an important maintenance step, which can help you find potential safety hazards in time and take appropriate measures.
The following are some recommended steps to check the degree of aging of hydraulic hose:
1, appearance inspection: First of all, the hydraulic hose appearance inspection. Observe whether there are cracks, deformation, wear or discoloration on the surface of the hose. These signs may be the performance of aging hose.
2, touch inspection: touch the hydraulic hose with your hand to check whether the texture is uniform, whether there is hardening or softening. Aging hose may become hardened or brittle.
3, bending test: gently bend the hydraulic hose, observe its bending performance. If the hose has significant creases or cracks when bent, this may indicate that it has aged.
4, check the connection: pay attention to check the connection of the hydraulic hose, including joints and flanges. Watch for signs of loosening, leakage, or corrosion. These problems may be related to the aging of the hose.
5, measurement size: Use measuring tools to check the size of the hydraulic hose, including the inner diameter and outer diameter. Compared with the original specifications, if the size has changed significantly, it may be the result of aging of the hose.
6, check the working environment: consider the working environment of hydraulic hose. If the hose is exposed to harsh conditions such as high temperature, high pressure, chemical corrosion or ultraviolet light for a long time, its aging speed may be accelerated.
Please note that the above steps are only some basic inspection methods for the initial assessment of the degree of aging of the hydraulic hose. If you have any questions or concerns about the state of the hydraulic hose, it is recommended to consult the professional staff of Guangzhou Rongming Hydraulic, an authorized distributor of the hose, for a more detailed inspection and evaluation.
In addition, regular maintenance and replacement of aging hydraulic hose is an important measure to ensure the safe and stable operation of the hydraulic system.
