Non-Conductive Thermoplastic Hoses - 518D

Parker’s Non-Conductive Thermoplastic Hose, 518D, has a high density braid to handle maximum impulse life without the loss of flexibility. The lay lines on this 100R7 list both ANSI and SAE maximum working pressures. It is the optimal solution for medium pressure hydraulic service where hydraulic circuit exposure and contact with high voltage may be encountered.

Parflex 518D Series can also be used with field attachable fittings on sizes -3, -4, -8 and -10. Using field attachable fittings allows operators to quickly, and easily, make hose assemblies in the field without a crimper.
