- Protects against 5,000 psi (34.5 MPa) pinhole leaks at +212°F (+100°C) for up to five minutes.
- Handles hydraulic fluids and biodiesel fuel.
- Allows fluid to safely escape down the length of the assembly.
- Creates noticeable spill for hose failure detection.
- Correlates to ISO 3457 and meets MSHA’s flame resistance requirements.
- No other sleeve provides this level of protection.
- Patented system includes Gates hose, couplings, sleeve and channel clamps.
