    WIRE BRAID HOSE AND COUPLINGS

    When you need high-performance flexibility, you need Gates wire braid hydraulic hoses, couplings, and accessories. The one or two braid wire reinforcement technology gives this hose a high resistance to kinking, excellent tensile strength, and a tighter bend radius, ideal for high and medium pressure petroleum, water-based, and general industrial fluid conveyance. If you need a custom cut hose length, private brand labeling, safety and application training, or resources for your hydraulic hose assembly, contact the Gates customer service team.
