hydraulic hoses for external steering
 

Where can i get the hydraulic hoses for my marine machine external steering, i had 1 made local and the fittings are not stainless and they rust and look like crap. marine machine web site does not have the hoses.

Thanks

Send me the lengths and the AN sizes and I will help you out. I can get a small roll of hydraulic line and the correct fittings for you at a very good price too! [email protected]

pm "Jb-fse" here on OSO. He can get whatever you need at a great price. I have dealt with him a few times and was very pleased.

or Kirk can hook you up :p

the hose is hi pressure hydraulic hose. with reusable ends. the come in stainless or chrome/ nickel plated. you'll need the mandrel to install the ends. and tape and a new disc on a cut off wheel if you dont have access to a chop saw. clean thoroughly and install. use a good lube when installing the ends. the hose size is -6 and the ends are most like ly -6 j.i.c . maybe s.a.e .

My latham were SAE and if you only need four I would recommend just buying them assembled rather than buying the mandrel and messing around with all that stuff.

Hardin Marine in FL has pre-made braided stainless steel. Check their website.

Whats the best oil to put back in them when done? Hydraulic oil or steer fluid?
