Industrial hose inserts are fittings that are inserted into the end of a hose to provide a connection point for other fittings or equipment. They are commonly used in hydraulic systems, where they provide a secure and leak-proof connection between hoses and other components. Hose inserts come in a variety of materials, including brass, steel, and plastic, and are designed to fit specific hose types and sizes. Choosing the right hose insert for your application is crucial to ensure a safe and reliable connection. Factors to consider include the type of fluid being conveyed, the temperature and pressure of the system, and the compatibility of the hose and insert materials. Proper installation of hose inserts is also important to ensure a secure and leak-free connection.
