RYCO RT8TN ISOLATOR TWIN Hose consists of two RT8N
Series Hoses of the same size, permanently joined together in a flat compact form that can be easily reeled onto payout and return reels on forklifts and cranes. It is also used for hydraulic powered hand tools, such as loppers and chain saws, and other applications requiring two hoses.
RT8TN is used where electrical non-conductivity is required
(for use in applications where there is potential for contact
with high voltage sources).
Suitable for use with mineral, vegetable and most ester
based hydraulic fluids.
Heat and hydrolysis stabilised for use with water based
hydraulic fluids up to +70°C (+158°F).
Suitable for use with some gases, fluids and chemicals (contact RYCO Technical Department).
Smooth inner tube for high flow rate; and smooth, easily cleaned cover.
The aramid reinforcement gives RT8TN Hose excellent
corrosion and fatigue resistance, and low elongation of
±2% at maximum dynamic working pressure.
Electrical Non-Conductivity:
Meets non-conductivity requirements of SAE 100R8, AS 3791 100R8, EN 855 Type R8 (maximum leakage does not exceed 50 µA when subjected to 75 kV/305 mm or 250 kV/M for 5 minutes). Incorrect storage and use, particularly that leading to oil or moisture entering the reinforcement, may adversely affect electrical properties.
Cover:
Orange, oil and abrasion resistant thermoplastic
(Polyurethane).
Cover is unperforated.
Temperature Range:
From -40°C to +95°C (-40°F to +203°F).
Working Pressure:
Maximum working pressures are based on 4:1 safety factor (minimum burst to maximum working pressure)
