About the Book
Fluid conductors interconnect components of a hydraulic system for the safe and leak-free transmission of high-pressure hydraulic fluid throughout the system. As hydraulic systems become increasingly complicated and operate under increased temperatures and in limited spaces, fluid conductors must not only withstand these adverse conditions but also handle high working pressures, peak surge pressures, and peak flow rates. Many hydraulic applications demand numerous types of conductors to satisfy the varying working requirements and conditions.
This book presents the necessary information about the constructional features, performance specifications, and other details of pipes, tubing, and hoses and their fittings. Next, the topics are logically arranged for a simple to complex level progression of the subject matter. The book uses the English system of units.
