Is the High-pressure measuring hose FK1A000 MICRO suitable for use with hydraulic oil and water-based fluids at -40Â°C to +93Â°C?

Yes. The High-pressure measuring hose FK1A000 MICRO is designed for hydraulic oil and water-based fluids and its rated operating temperature range is â40Â°C to +93Â°C. Note: for water and air the spec limits the maximum to +65Â°C, so while the hose construction supports â40Â°C to +93Â°C generally, use with water should not exceed +65Â°C.

Can High-pressure measuring hose FK1A000 MICRO withstand kinks and abrasion in bicycle brake systems under continuous flexing?

High-pressure measuring hose FK1A000 MICRO is specifically described as lightweight, very flexible and elastic, and resistant to kinks-features that support performance under continuous flexing in bicycle brake systems. Construction details-polyester inner layer, single aramid braid reinforcement, and a black polyurethane outer layer-provide strength, abrasion resistance and pressure capability (625â660 bar depending on diameter). Operating temperature range (â40Â°C to +93Â°C; for water/air up to +65Â°C) suits typical cycling conditions. Therefore, High-pressure measuring hose FK1A000 MICRO is suitable to withstand kinks and abrasion in bicycle hydraulic brake systems under continuous flexing, though long-term performance also depends on installation, routing, and exposure to sharp edges or contaminants.

Does High-pressure measuring hose FK1A000 MICRO offer micro-perforated outer layer as a special-order option?

Yes. High-pressure measuring hose FK1A000 MICRO offers a micro-perforated outer layer as a special-order option.
