The Flexibility Paradox: Bend Radius vs. Burst Pressure
The Flexibility Paradox explores the critical balance between bend radius and burst pressure in hydraulic hose design. When hoses bend too tightly, internal reinforcements collapse, reducing burst strength by up to 50%. This article explains the engineering physics behind flexibility loss, how CR/NBR compounds and optimized wire reinforcement geometry solve the issue, and why the Artery Series achieves exceptional durability and routing performance in compact hydraulic systems.
Heat Soak Phenomenon: Why Idle Machines Still Burn Hoses
Heat soak is a silent threat to hydraulic systems — residual heat trapped in hoses after shutdown can lead to inner tube oxidation, cracking, and early failure. This article explains the mechanism of heat soak, its impact on hydraulic hoses, and how engineering balance in design, material selection, and thermal control can prevent damage. Featuring the Artery Series CR/NBR hoses with HNBR seals, proven to maintain performance under mechanical and thermal stress.
