- Pre-assembled with brackets: the pressure and return hoses ship ready to install, reducing labor time versus replacements sold as individual hoses.
- Rated for high pressure: the pressure hose carries a max working pressure of 1,500 psi, a burst pressure rating of 8,700 psi, and a tensile strength of 1,600 lb.
- Precision engineered: built to exact fit and includes the additional components needed to restore all wearable parts to original condition.
- Factory tested: every pressure hose passes a high-pressure quality-assurance test before leaving the factory for trouble-free installation and operation.
Signs the original hose may need replacing include fluid weeping or dripping at the fittings, a low reservoir, whining from the pump, or heavy, difficult steering. Diagnose the leak's source before replacing, since other components can cause the same symptoms.
