Hydraulic Hose Pressing: Technical Guide & Proper Application Steps

Hydraulic Hose Pressing: An Expert Technical Guide from Selection to Application

Introduction: Why Hydraulic Hose Pressing is Critical

Hydraulic hoses are at the heart of high-pressure systems. While factors such as the right hose selection, oil properties, and operating conditions are vital,The connection point where the hose meets the union — i.e., the pressing — is the real critical step for system performance and reliability.
In the given article, hydraulic hose types and selection criteria are discussed in detail; Here on this foundationTechnical pressing knowledge, standards, errors and solution suggestionsWe will add it. (Hidroman)

What is Hydraulic Hose Pressing?

Hydraulic hose pressing is the permanent joining of the hose and the fitting. This is intended to:

Leak-proof and secure connection

Minimal flow loss

Maximum durability

Resistance to vibration and pressure impact

The pressing process involves a specialhydraulic hose press machineand must be made within standard tolerances. (Hidroman)

Press Machine and Technical Specifications

How Does a Press Machine Work?

Hydraulic hose press machines ensure that the fitting fits homogeneously in the hose under high pressure. The workflow is as follows:

Cutting and cleaning the hose to the correct size

Positioning the fitting in the proper position

Installing the correct mold on the machine

Performing the adjustable pressing process

Checking the connection by leak test(Hidroman)

What to Look for in Technical Specifications

Key technical parameters when selecting a press machine:

Maximum pressing diameter

Jaw opening width

Die set compatibility and variety

Pressing speed and control precision

These criteria are critical for both production capacity and suitability for hose type. (Hidroman)

Pressing Die Selection: Technical Steps

The pressing die should be selected according to the hose-fitting combination. Consequences you may encounter with the wrong mold selection:

Mold Selection Error	Possible Outcomes
The mold is too big	Loose connection, leakage
The mold is too small	Hose deformation, inner layer damage
Suitable mold but wrong pressure	Gland ovalization, flow section distortion

The right approach:

Mold selection according to the crimp diameter value determined by the manufacturer

Precise adjustment with calibration card or digital panel

Post-press measurement (with caliper)

Standards and Tolerances

The pressing process should be done in accordance with the standards. Many manufacturers specify the tolerance values in their pressing tables. These tolerances are usually:

From 0 / -0.2 mm to 0 / -0.6 mm(varies according to diameters) (Hidroman)

These values directly affect the system performance and reliability of the press process.

Common Pressing Mistakes and Solutions

???? Common Mistakes

Error	Conclusion
Wrong mold selection	Leak, hose slippage
Insufficient tightening	Connection looseness
Overtightening	Fitting cracking
Lack of calibration	Measurement error

✔️ The Right Approaches

Selection of press size according to standard tables

Recording measurements on digitally controlled machines

Quality inspection of sample joints after each pressing

Maintenance and Testing of the Pressed Hose

Controls that can be done after pressing:

Tightness verification by pressure test

Dimensional control (micrometer, caliper)

Deformation control by visual inspection

Additionally, regular maintenance of press machines is essential for long-term performance. Surface cleaning, lubrication and periodic wear control of the molds increase success. (Hidroman)
