Parker Hydraulic Hose 421SNMSHA

The Parker Hydraulic Hose 421SNMSHA is a high-quality hydraulic hose designed to meet the stringent requirements of MSHA (Mine Safety and Health Administration) for flame resistance. Here are some key features of this hose: 1. **Construction**: The hose is constructed with a synthetic rubber inner tube, which provides resistance to hydraulic fluids and ensures reliable performance under high pressure. It also features a single steel wire braid reinforcement for added strength and durability. 2. **Flame Resistance**: The "MSHA" designation indicates that the hose meets or exceeds the flame resistance requirements set by the Mine Safety and Health Administration. This ensures that the hose is suitable for use in mining applications where there is a risk of exposure to flames or sparks. 3. **Size and Length**: The hose is available in various sizes and lengths to suit different hydraulic systems and applications. It is important to select the appropriate size and length of hose based on the specific requirements of your application. 4. **Pressure Rating**: The hose is designed to handle high-pressure hydraulic systems, with a maximum working pressure rating specified by the manufacturer. It is important to ensure that the selected hose has a pressure rating suitable for the intended application. 5. **End Fittings**: The hose may come equipped with various end fittings, including BSP (British Standard Pipe) fittings, JIC (Joint Industry Council) fittings, or others, depending on the specific requirements of the application. 6. **Applications**: The Parker Hydraulic Hose 421SNMSHA is suitable for a wide range of hydraulic applications in mining and other industries where flame resistance is required. It can be used in hydraulic machinery, equipment, and systems that operate in challenging environments. As with any hydraulic hose, it is essential to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for installation, maintenance, and inspection to ensure safe and efficient operation. Additionally, regular inspections and replacements are necessary to prevent hose failure and ensure worker safety in hazardous environments.
