Strongflex is a China hydraulic hose supplier with own factory, we have nearly 20 years of export experience and has established the STRONGFLEX brand. Fast, friendly, knowledgeable sales & sales professional with extended business hours 24/7 emergency service offer all hoses, fittings and related accessories. At the same time, we can provide customized brand products, for your custom hydraulic hoses and fittings. If you want custom hydraulic hoses and related products, you can contact us and there are several items that need to be considered. Through the following factors, we can further complete the cooperation.
Why do you need custom hydraulic hoses?
In some cases we have to choose custom hydraulic hoses. The main reasons for choosing custom hoses are:
Precisely Adaptable to Complex Scenarios
We design and manufacture hoses based on in-depth customer consultation and understanding of specific applications, ensuring each hose is perfectly suited to the working environment. Precisely customized lengths, bend radii, and fitting types simplify installation and reduce the risk of leaks or bursts caused by improper sizing or assembly.
Improving System Performance
Customized products optimize fluid transfer paths, reduce resistance losses, and enhance overall work efficiency. For example, anti-static hoses utilize a copper wire grounding design to effectively dissipate static electricity, ensuring production safety.
Extended Service Life
Using high-quality materials and specialized treatment techniques for specific operating conditions, customized hoses outlast standard models.
Brand and Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) Requirements
Customized printing, colors, and packaging can be added to enhance your brand image, which is particularly important for OEM customers.
When do you need to customize hydraulic hoses?
Not every hydraulic system requires a custom hose, but in the following situations, customization becomes the best or only option:
Special Pressure Requirements
When the system operating pressure exceeds the standard hose specification range, custom hoses are required to ensure system safety.
Special Fluid Compatibility
Some systems utilize special hydraulic fluids, chemicals, or bio-oils. We select custom inner tube materials (such as PTFE, NBR, or EPDM) to achieve appropriate resistance.
Space-Constrained Installation
In cramped or frequently moving environments (such as robotic arms and automated production lines), hoses require high flexibility and custom connectors (flanges, threads, etc.) to accommodate complex spatial layouts.
Extreme Temperature Environments
When the system operating temperature exceeds the standard hose operating range (-40°C to +120°C), specialized low-temperature (-40°C) or high-temperature (+120°C) hoses are required to prevent embrittlement at low temperatures or aging at high temperatures.
Contact us for specifications and quotes on high temperature hose or low temperature hose
Non-Standard Fittings or Connectors
Machinery imported from different countries or older equipment may use non-standard thread types or fittings. Custom hose assemblies ensure full compatibility.
What to consider if you want custom hydraulic hose?
custom hydraulic hose
The first thing to consider when customizing hydraulic hoses is the material. Hydraulic hoses are used in different hydraulic systems for different temperatures and pressures, and the materials used in production are also different. You can tell us the pressure or temperature requirements of the hydraulic hoses according to your application scenarios, or special requirements for materials, such as anti-static, oil-resistant or low-temperature resistant. We will have professional sales and production personnel to determine the material and number of layers of the hydraulic pipe reinforcement, braiding method of the reinforcement layer, the material of the inner and outer rubber, etc. which can meet your needs for a custom hydraulic hose.
The second thing is to determine the specifications of the hydraulic hose, such as the length of the hose, the outer diameter of the hose and the inner diameter of the hose. To measure the hydraulic hose diameter, the simplest method is to compare the size of the suitable used hydraulic hose. For the method of measuring the hydraulic hose, please refer to another article: How to Measure Hydraulic Hose？
Different sizes of hydraulic hoses can refer to the following chart:
The last thing to determine is the quantity, printing film, and transportation method, how many meters or rolls you need, what kind of text needs to be printed on the hydraulic pipe? Product appearance with smooth or textured surface, or shipped by ship or air. We will produce according to your required quantity, printed on your terms and shipped your way.
After confirming all the requirements, our sales staff will quote according to the specific situation. If everything goes well, your order will be scheduled for production. After production is completed, and it was tested without any problem, it will be packaged and shipped. We have professional production staff to ensure timely delivery, and you will see your goods soon.
If you need a connector for a hydraulic hose, we can customize the hydraulic fittings according to the hydraulic hose size. However, you will also need to provide more detailed information. But don’t worry, feel free to contact us if you have any needs.
