Global reusable fittings are field attachable with wrenches and/or a vice without the need for crimping. This is ideal for low volume users who wish to assemble hoses on the spot without the need for heavy and expensive equipment. Field attachable/reusable fittings are engineered to provide peak performance when used with Eaton’s braided hose products. As an added benefit, they are plated with Dura-Kote for the ultimate level of corrosion resistance and in stock at all TIPCO Eaton Aeroquip Hose Centers.

For applications with compact and narrow installation parameters and high pressure needs, Tipco stocks Eaton’s economical EC115, meeting EN857 Type 1SC requirements, and EC215, meeting EN857 2SC requirements, get the job done.

Industry-standard EC115 and EC215 rubber hydraulic hoses are the ideal solution for narrow installation space and the transportation of petroleum and water-based fluids for general industrial service. These hoses have a high-bend radius to be easily routed and are compatible with Eaton’s global reusable fittings, making it even easier to route as it does not need to be a finished assembly before installation. If undamaged, the fittings can be used multiple times with the same great Eaton seal.

Using EC115 and EC215 along with global reusable fittings is a great addition to any field repair kit as it reduces downtime and is good for remote applications like on location or road crews, where a hose assembly site is not nearby.
