hydraulic hose

Pressurized liquid tube

A hydraulic hose is a flexible tube designed to carry pressurized fluid in hydraulic systems—the kind that power heavy machinery, construction equipment, and industrial tools.

Unlike rigid pipes, hydraulic hoses can bend and route through tight spaces while withstanding extreme pressure.

They're reinforced with braided steel or synthetic fibers to prevent bursting: The excavator was down for a week waiting on a replacement hydraulic hose.
