SUPPLY OPTIONS :
Hyperline FX hose can either be supplied as made up and crimped hose assemblies, or as loose hose for customers to assemble themselves, using ferrules supplied by Aflex Hose, and standard hydraulic end fittings, which can also be supplied by Aflex Hose if required.
Easier Assembly : Hyperline FX is very flexible, and is designed to replace conventional flexible tape wrapped convoluted or autoconvoluted PTFE hoses in application where faster, cleaner fluid flow or ease of assembly is paramount. SS or MS ferrules and crimp diameters can be supplied to suit any conventional hydraulic hose tail end fittings.
Problems associated with assembling fittings to convoluted hoses, such as leakages, the need for special or sleeved spigots, the need to de-convolute etc. disappear - Hyperline FX is literally as easy to assemble as any smooth bore hose.
Assembly instructions :
(1). Cut the hose to the desired length using a cut off machine with a high tensile steel blade, allowing for the length of the end fittings.
(2). Push the ferrule onto the hose (chamfered end first) and insert the fitting and push into the hose until it meets the collar on the fitting. Align the ferrule over the collar.
(3). Place the assembly into the swaging machine and swage down the ferrule to the recommended swage dimension as given in Aflex Document AS-42. Check using a vernier or micrometer.
To find AS-42 and the current swage diameters, consult the Aflex Hose I-Bay system. To obtain the I-Bay address, please contact Aflex Hose Ltd.

Pressure Testing Instructions :

HYPERLINE FX HOSE - CUT LENGTHS WITH NON-FLARED ENDS
Aflex Hose are also able to supply Hyperline Hose in ready-to-assemble pre-cut lengths, with the braid wire at the ends annealed and cut so the cut ends do not flare out. This makes it easier to slide ferrules on to the hose ends during assembly.
This can be applied to all sizes of Hyperline FX hoses for minimum quantities of 500+ lengths. Minimum cut length 60mm (2 3/8"), lengths cut to an accuracy of + or - 1.5mm (1/16").
