Which is better 1 wire or 2 wire hydraulic hose?

For more information, please visit SANYEFLEX.

We are the hydraulic hose manufacturer to provide multiple types of hydraulic hose in the market. Today I am here to share with you guys about the 2-wire hydraulic hose.

In this guide, I am happy to share with you all about the steel wire hydraulic hose, including steel wire braided hydraulic hose and steel wire spiral hydraulic hose. 

Begin with Hydraulic Hose Structure

The hydraulic hose is structured with three different parts, inner tube, reinforcement, and outer cover. The wire is used to create the reinforcement layer of the hydraulic hose. And here are two types of hydraulic hose,  based on the manufacturing craftsmanship, they are spiral hydraulic hose and braided hydraulic hose. And spiral & braided hydraulic hose is basically different in the reinforcement.

The steel wire braided hydraulic hose is used to convey petrochemicals and hydraulic fluids in an environment with high pressure and high temperature. Steel wire hydraulic hose can be applied for various construction machines, such as exploiting machines, mining machines, agricultural machinery and etc.

And the braided hydraulic hose can be classified into 1 wire braided hydraulic hose, 2 wire braided hydraulic hose, 3 wire braided hydraulic hose, 4 wire braided hydraulic hose, 6 wire braided hydraulic hose and etc. And the hydraulic hose with 1 wire reinforcement can work well in very low to high temperatures with the range of -40°C to +100°C, and even the maximum temperature can be up to +125°C.

Here, the hydraulic hose reinforcement is made of steel wire, with different layers to create different strengths, and more wires can be added much more strength to the whole hydraulic hose.

And we have different wire layers as the reinforcement to make braided hydraulic hoses.

• 1 wire hydraulic hose (wire braided hydraulic hose)
• 2 wire hydraulic hose (wire braided hydraulic hose)
• 4 wire hydraulic hose (wire spiral hydraulic hose)
• 6 wire hydraulic hose (wire spiral hydraulic hose)

It&#;s flexible for you to choose the proper wire braided hydraulic hose for your hydraulic project.

What Is 1 Wire Hydraulic Hose? (Single Wire Hydraulic Hose)

1 wire hydraulic hose, also called 1-wire braided hydraulic hose, single wire hydraulic hose, is the braided hydraulic hose reinforced with one layer of stainless steel wire. The single wire braided hydraulic hose&#; made of oil-resistant synthetic rubber material with a single layer of steel wire reinforcement.

You can get to know if a hydraulic hose is a 1 wire hydraulic hose, by reading from the hydraulic hose cover printing mark. This EN857 1SC is the 1 wire hydraulic hose.

What Is 2 Wire Hydraulic Hose? (Double Wire Hydraulic Hose)

Compared with a 1 wire hydraulic hose, a 2 wire hydraulic hose is reinforced with 2 layers of stainless steel wire and can be also called a double braided hydraulic hose.

Here we have many 2-wire hydraulic hoses for you to select, and the 2-wire hydraulic hose is made of 2-layer steel wire as the reinforcement, to make the whole hydraulic hose much stronger.

Double wire braid hydraulic hose has the construction as follows, and double wire hose hydraulic hose is made of synthetic rubber lining, the synthetic rubber material is oil-resistant, and two-wire braided reinforcement is separated by synthetic rubber layer. The synthetic rubber cover is oil, fuel, weather, and abrasion-resistant.

By the way, the inner tube is much stronger than the cover, made of better synthetic rubber material, because the quality of the inner tube can determine the whole hydraulic hose.

The two wire hydraulic hose is the widely applied hydraulic hose for the hydraulic system on the hydraulic machine, and it is also the steel wire braided hydraulic hose, reinforced with the 2-wire layer in the middle. 

So two-wire hydraulic hose is much stronger than the single-wire hydraulic hose, due to more steel wire. More wire layers can add strength and hardness to the whole hydraulic hose pipe, making it more durable for long-lasting service life.

What Is 4 Wire Hydraulic Hose?

The 4 wire hydraulic hose is made of 4-layer steel wire reinforcement and separated by the synthetic rubber material, making the hydraulic hose much stronger with hardness. And 4-wire braided hydraulic hose suitable to be used for hydraulic fluids transmission.

One other thing that most people aren't aware of, or think about. Is the pressures in our equipment unhooked and out of service can go much higher due to thermal expansion, than actual operating pressures. As the temperatures change daily so does the pressures in our parked equipment. I've been studing this with my data logger for HEC LLC. And have been shocked by the findings. I have a couple graphs on the web site showing this. All it takes is a temperature differential, it doesn't need extreme heat.
