Application:

MegaSys™ MXG™ 4K hose is lightweight, highly flexible, and qualified to ONE MILLION impulse cycles — it’s a drop-in replacement for conventional spiral hoses. A new class of hydraulic hose that exceeds the pressure and performance of wire spiral constructions, but with the lower weight and flexibility driven by Gates wire-braid technology. The XtraTuff™ Plus abrasion resistant cover on MXG™4K hose offers improved ozone resistance, withstands operating temperatures up to 250ºF, and delivers exceptional durability to power your most demanding fluid power applications.

CERTIFIED: MSHA Flame Resistant

FEATURES & BENEFITS:

• Proprietary application of materials science and processing technology
• Exceeds performance criteria of ISO 18752 280DC, SAE 100R12, EN856 R12, and ISO 3862 R12; size -16 also rated for EN856 4SP
• For inventory consolidation, also exceeds SAE 100R19
• 1,000,000 cycle impulse life exceeds industry standards (2X spiral and 5X wire braid standards) with GS couplings
• Impulse tested to the same parameters as Gates EFG4K spiral hose (pressure, temperature and bend radius)
• Compact construction with excellent flexibility and lower force-tobend for faster and more ergonomic installation (force-to-bend is 40% better and OD is 8% smaller)
• 30% lighter weight for easier handling and installation
• Gates XtraTuff™ Plus cover comes standard on MXG, providing abrasion and ozone resistance
• Utilizes Gates GS GlobalSpiral™ couplings; sizes 6-12 have alternative performance ratings with MegaCrimp™ G couplings; compatible with Gates Crimpers

STANDARD:
