  • Hydraulic hose flex-impulse tester
    Patent number: 5339677
    Abstract: A hydraulic hose impulse tester capable of simultaneously testing multiple samples of hydraulic hose in a stationary-impulse condition and in a flexing-impulse condition in the same test environment. The tester eliminates varying extraneous factors which can affect comparative test results by performing the static and dynamic tests simultaneously. Alternatively, all sample hoses can be tested in either a static or dynamic condition.
