hynautic manual steering hose operating pressure?
 

Hi. I would like to replace the hoses that go from the bulkhead fittings to the steering rams on my cig. I was wondering what the pressure rating for these hoses would be and can i make them up using Russell or similar braided steel hose. thanks.

Merc ps pump operates at about 1200 psi if that helps. I used 3000psi for my replacement hoses.

I know not the same, but my full Hyd system has steel braded on all line around transom, does look like they have crimped on ends though and not the screw together ones...don't think that steering is any higher..my gibson uses that style and all lines done in copper...

Local hydraulic shop made these, teflon hose crimped stainless JIC ends
