Gates Australia Pty Ltd -
The LifeGuard™ Line-of-Sight Sleeving System is the first true protection in line-of-sight hydraulic applications.
The Line-of-Sight Sleeving System contains 6,000 psi bursts and 3,000 psi pinhole leaks at 212°F for up to five minutes. After redirecting the explosive force down the length of the hose, the LifeGuard sleeve disperses the energy and fluids at the hose ends via carefully designed “channel” clamps. The leaked fluid then allows for fast hose failure detection.
Equipment operators working within a three-foot line-of-sight of a hydraulic system know the potential for problems. Personal injury. Fluid burns and injection. Fires and explosions. Electrical shock. Mechanical failure. The double-layer sleeve effectively shields you against these hazards.
No other flexible connection safeguards your operators, equipment and environment like LifeGuard sleeving.
The new LifeGuard™ Line-of-Sight Sleeving System from Gates offers the first true protection in line-of-sight hydraulic applications.
