Defines requirements for two types of wire braid reinforced compact hoses and hose assemblies of nominal bore from 6 to 25, types 1SC and 2SC.

This European Standard specifies requirements for two types of wire braid reinforced compact hoses and hose assemblies of nominal bore from 6 to 25, types 1SC and 2SC. They are suitable for use with: hydraulic fluids in accordance with ISO6743‑4 with the exception of HFD R, HFD S and HFD T at temperatures ranging from -40°C to +100°C; water based fluids at temperatures ranging from -40°C to +70°C; water at temperatures ranging from 0°C to +70°C. This European Standard does not include requirements for end fittings. It is limited to the performance of hoses and hose assemblies. NOTE1 The hoses are not suitable for use with castor oil based nor ester based fluids. NOTE2 Hoses and hose assemblies are not be operated outside the limits of this standard. NOTE3 Requirements for hydraulic hoses for underground mining are standardised in separate standards.
