SAE 100 R3 Hydraulic Hose Structure

SAE 100 R3 Textile Reinforced Hydraulic Hose
SAE 100 R3 hydraulic hose construction
- Tube: Oil resistant synthetic rubber
- Reinforcement: Two high tensile fiber braided.
- Cover: Black, abrasion and weather resistant synthetic rubber, MSHA accepted.
- Temperature: -40℃ to +100 ℃
Application: SAE 100R3 hydraulic hose is suitable for return pipes, fuel delivery and lubricating oil lines in low-pressure hydraulic systems. The SAE 100 R3 hose is a low pressure hydraulic hose, designed to handle working pressures up to 20 bar. It is widely used in construction, agriculture, mining, machine tools, and material handling equipment.
SAE 100 R3 Key Features & Benefits
Lightweight and Flexible—Easier installation in tight spaces.
Durable Textile Reinforcement – Resists vibration, reduces fatigue.
Oil, Weather, and Abrasion Resistance—Extended service life even in harsh environments.
No Skiving Required—Saves time during hose assembly.
MSHA Certified Cover – Meets safety standards for mining and industrial environments.
SAE 100 R3 hose Specification
We can produce hoses with inner diameters between 1/4″ and 1-1/4″, or other custom sizes, with pressures between 2.6 Mpa and 10.5 Mpa. The burst pressure is four times the working pressure, with a high safety factor to ensure the normal and safe operation of the hydraulic system.

What is SAE 100 R3?
What is an R3 hydraulic hose?
SAE100 R3 hydraulic hose consists of an inner layer of oil-resistant synthetic rubber, two layers of high-strength fiber layers and an outer layer of oil-resistant and weather-resistant synthetic rubber. It is a medium-pressure hydraulic hose, suitable for petroleum or water based hydraulic fluids, such as air compressors, printing machinery, industrial vehicles, agricultural machinery and construction engineering machinery, etc.
What is the material of the braids in an SAE100R3 hose?
SAE 100R3 hose is mainly for medium-pressure conditions. The reinforcement layer is two layers of high-tenacity textile braid.
What does sae 100 mean?
What is the pressure rating of R3 hose?
The inner diameter size of SAE 100R3 rubber hydraulic hose ranges from 1/4″ to 1-1/4″. The working pressure is 377PSi ~ 1523PSI, which is a medium-pressure hydraulic hose. The larger the inner diameter, the smaller the pressure it can withstand. The bursting pressure is four times the working pressure, and it has a higher safety factor.
