A common safety factor is 4:1. If your system operates at 1000 PSI, your tubing should have a minimum burst pressure rating of 4000 PSI.
Pneumatics, Hydraulics - Tubing, Hose, Piping Component Intelligence
Engineered fluid transfer solutions for high-pressure and pneumatic automation.
What are Pneumatics, Hydraulics - Tubing, Hose, Piping components?
Select tubing and hoses based on peak operating pressure, fluid compatibility, and bend radius. Ensure the material withstands environmental factors like UV, vibration, and chemical exposure to prevent catastrophic system failure in pneumatic or hydraulic circuits.
How to Choose Pneumatics, Hydraulics - Tubing, Hose, Piping Components
Selecting the correct fluid transfer medium requires balancing mechanical stress with chemical resistance.
Pressure Rating
Always verify the burst pressure is at least 3-4x the maximum system operating pressure.
Fluid Compatibility
Match the inner tube material to the hydraulic fluid or compressed air quality to prevent degradation.
Bend Radius
Tight routing requires high-flex tubing; exceeding minimum bend radius causes kinking and flow restriction.
Temperature Range
Ensure the material maintains structural integrity at both the minimum and maximum operating temperatures.
Fitting Interface
Confirm the tubing outer diameter (OD) matches the push-to-connect or compression fitting specifications.
