Module 7. Maintenance practices

The length of a hose assembly with elbowed end fittings is taken from

  • the maximum length of the straight hose portion.
  • the extreme overall length of the assembly.
  • the centre of the bore at the nipple extremity.

Explanation

For a hose with elbowed (angled) end fittings, the assembly length is measured to the centre of the bore at the extremity of each nipple, giving a consistent reference at the fluid path. Taking the extreme overall length or just the straight portion would not correspond to the standard dimensioning of the fitting.
