Productive, efficient, and durable hydraulic assemblies begin by choosing the right high-quality components, all of which are designed to fit together, creating synergy as a fluid power system. At Gates, our complete line of hydraulic hoses, couplings, equipment and accessories combine innovative design with exceptional quality materials to ensure your hydraulic hose assemblies meet your needs.
Gates® PolySleeve™ is a spiral wrap designed to protect or bundle hose for appearance and safety. PolySleeve™ protects hose from chaffing, rubbing, crushing, ultraviolet rays and other hazards that cause hose failures. It can be an easy and economical way to protect equipment, reduce downtime, improve sighting and improve overall appearance. PolySleeve™ can be installed easily - even after the hose assembly or assemblies are in place. The edges are rounded, so installers won't cut their hands. Just wrap a section of Gates PolySleeve™ in the abrasion area or wrap it around any number of hose for better appearance or safety. It is offered in either black or yellow in a full range of sizes. This product is made of heavy-wall, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and has a wide temperature range. At -40°C (-40°F) it starts to become somewhat brittle, and at +138°C (+280°F) it starts to become soft. After temperature is normalized, PolySleeve™ returns to its original state quickly.
