Lubrication Hose
- Temperature Range: -40° to 212° F
- Maximum Vacuum: 28" of Hg @ 72° F
- Material: Polyester Plastic with Polyurethane Cover
- Color: Black
- Compatible Hose Fittings: Parker Series BU
Hose has good oil-resistance, so it won’t deteriorate or become brittle when exposed to grease and lubricants. Hose has a smooth interior for unrestricted flow. It is reinforced with yarn for good strength. Hose is polyester plastic with a polyurethane rubber cover for good abrasion and tear resistance. The material won’t degrade when exposed to ozone or UV light.
Lubrication Hose Fittings
Use these two-piece fittings in grease and lubrication lines. They screw directly onto plastic hose without the need for a separate adapter. To install, separate the two pieces of the fitting (the hose-end portion and the nipple portion). Screw the hose-end portion of the fitting onto the hose, then thread the nipple portion of the fitting into the hose-end portion. When assembled, the fitting compresses against the hose, forming a strong seal. Also known as reusable fittings, they can be unscrewed from the hose end and used on a new hose. Fittings are zinc-plated steel, which is strong and durable with fair corrosion resistance.
Fittings with intermittent swivel rotate 360° until tightened for easy installation.
Fittings with a 37° flared end are also known as JIC (Joint Industrial Council) fittings.
NPTF (Dryseal) threads are compatible with NPT threads.

Grease-Filled Tubing
Don’t wait for grease to travel through a new service line—install this grease-filled tubing between the pump and a lubrication point to begin lubricating immediately.
Grease with synthetic base oil is thick, so it is often used for rotating parts, such as gear wheels and chain guide tracks. This grease protects against aging, wear, and corrosion.
Grease with lithium/calcium thickener is designed for open gears and is good for high temperatures and extreme loads. It can also be used with plain bearings and bushings. Grease with lithium thickener is best for lubricating linear guides and ball screws. It is water resistant and can be used for medium to high loads. Grease with calcium sulfonate thickener is often used in food and pharmaceutical industries because it resists corrosion and keeps its consistency when exposed to water, creating a seal.
Use tube adapters (sold separately) to connect grease-filled tubing to system components.
