| Item | What to check |
|---|---|
| End fittings | Type (JIC, BSP, metric DIN, ORFS), thread size, male/female, elbow angle |
| Overall length | Measure end-to-end including fittings; too short tears, too long rubs |
| Hose spec | Inner diameter and pressure rating from the printed layline stamp |
| Routing context | Photo of where it connects on the machine — catches elbows and guards |
The layline stamp on the old hose states size and pressure class — one clear photo of it is worth a paragraph of description.
Volvo machines built for different markets carry different fitting standards, and hoses replaced locally over the years may not match the factory layout. That is why we build from your old hose rather than from the machine model alone. Custom assemblies are cut, crimped and pressure-tested to your sample.
Fleet practice: keep one spare for each hose that would immobilize the machine if it fails — typically the main pump suction and pressure lines, swing and travel motor lines. Bulk hose plus a few common fittings on the service truck covers the rest. Send photos of your critical lines and we quote a spare set.

In-stock fittings and hose crimp the same day; the assembly is tested before packing. Freight speed is your choice of courier, air or sea.
Yes — bulk hydraulic hose and common fitting types are quoted by length and quantity for service trucks and workshops.
