I would be surprised if the oil going through the oil cooler was under high pressure, but someone correct me if I am wrong,, Even though, I would be tempted to have a hydro hose made up professionally just for safety and equipment sake.

Replacing hydraulic hose...what to use???
I'm am replacing the hydraulic hoses that come of the oil cooler, wondering what type of hose I should be using. I assume a radiator hose won't hold up...

Go to Northern right down the road. They have it
Spend the extra buck (or few) and get the good hose clamps while your at it.

Just for clarity, the pressure in the return system on these tractors will routinely run 200 PSI. A properly spec'd hydraulic return line hose stock will be rated to a min working pressure of 300 PSI.I would be surprised if the oil going through the oil cooler was under high pressure, but someone correct me if I am wrong,, Even though, I would be tempted to have a hydro hose made up professionally just for safety and equipment sake.

This is not a 'high' pressure circuit which would require fabricated hoses.
Generally spec'd automotive heating/cooling hose will not hold up to hot oil flow ... often fail in a matter of hours.

Perfect thanks!
