*The above pressure ratings are for the fitting itself. There are several factors that determine the pressure rating of a hose assembly. Some of
which are hose pressure rating, method of hose attachment, quality of hose attachment, and external fastening devices such as Tri-Clamp and
I-Line clamps, flange bolts, etc. It is up to the hose assembler and the end user to assure that all components are applied pr operly and meet the
required working pressure of the system.
It is recommended that hydrostatic testing be done to hose assemblies
to assure the above crimp diameters are sufficient for the intended
application. Reference the NAHAD Hose Safety Institute Hose Assembly
Guidelines for recommended testing procedures. www.nahad.org
