Built with Gates patented Xpiral™ woven spiral technology, MegaSys™ MXG™ 5K hydraulic hose is lightweight, highly flexible and qualified to ONE MILLION impulse cycles. MXG™ 5K exceeds the performance of wire spiral constructions, but with the lower weight and flexibility driven by Gates materials science technology. The XtraTuff™ Plus cover on MXG™ 5K hose offers 25X the abrasion resistance of standard covers, as well as impressive ozone resistance.
Exceeds performance criteria of ISO 18752 350DC, SAE 100R13, EN856 R13 and ISO 3862 R13; sizes -10, -12 and -16 also rated for EN856 4SP.
1,000,000 cycle impulse life exceeds industry standards for longevity in the factory or field.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
MXG™ 5K was designed to out-perform industry standards, and that is backed by laboratory testing and field trials.
MXG™ 5K has a Minimum Bend Radius that is 50%-60% tighter than the industry standard for longevity in the factory or field.
Compact construction with excellent flexibility and lower force-to-bend for faster and more ergonomic installation (force-to-bend is 25% better and OD is 5% smaller).
The durable XtraTuff™ Plus cover delivers additional toughness with 25X abrasion resistance and 800+ hour ozone resistance.
20% lighter weight for easier handling and installation.
Utilizes Gates® GS GlobalSpiral™ couplings; compatible with Gates Crimpers.
