Hydraulic Hose Protector

[Atch4115]

Does anybody know where you can get the black mesh type material they use on hydraulic hoses to protect them from rubbing up against sharp edges?

Your tractor dealer probably has it, as would most hydraulic hose shops.

Discount Hydraulic Hose calls it Nylon Abrasion Sleeving, and can be found on their web site under Sleeving. The Nylon Abrasion Sleeving is the third type listed.

Internal diameter 0.76" ($0.94) up to Internal diameter 3.70" ($3.61 per lineal foot. )

Mcmaster-Carr calls that material "Woven Nylon Fabric Sleeving". They carry several sizes, the largest size is 5.8" (flat width) for $4.30 a foot.

I don't know about either company's minimum order requirements or shipping costs.

I've ordered a single sub $4 item from McMaster-Carr with no problems. I did it online with a credit card. My total on that with shipping was under $8 so I'm guessing you won't run into problems with a 'minimum order' with them. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif I even got a follow up telephone call to see if my order arrived OK and if I was happy with everything. /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif Needless to say, I was very impressed all around. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I bought mesh sleeve from McMaster Carr. Not quite like the mesh that I have on the hyd. hoses on my Deere FEL, but close.
