Hydraulic hoses are flexible hoses that is used to transport fluid from one component to another within a hydraulic mechanism or machine. Hoses are graded. The hoses tend to be made of three layers,
Inner tube - this is the internal part of the hose. It needs to be compatible with the type of fluid that it will be transferring, so as to avoid corrosion.
Reinforcement – this is a layer that surrounds the inner tube; made from wire which is either coiled or braided. This both supports and protects the inner tube
Outer Layer- The outer layer of the hydraulic hose is made of rigid materials which keep the internal contents safe and avoids the elements having any effect on the workings
