Parker Hannifin, a global player in motion and controls, offers the mining industry a wide array of hydraulic solutions and services. Whether it is a single hose type, a hose assembly or a total system, Parker Hannifin Parker’s highly qualified application and design engineers can put together a solution that keeps equipment working harder and longer. Trusted brands such as Coalmaster and SteckO provide complete, reliable hydraulic packages to connect and support underground mining equipment. All Coalmaster and SteckO products combine international accreditation with total system integrity and long service life in the harshest conditions.
Parker is now introducing the 471TC No-Skive ToughCover Compact Hose, which is ideally suited to the South African market. It has a one half SAE 100 R2 minimum bend radius for easy installation, and this also reduces the length of hose required. The cover is MSHA approved and has 80 times more abrasion resistance than a standard cover hose, thus reducing the risk of failure due to abrasion. Parker also offers the one-piece No-Skive 43 series fitting as part of its package for fast and leak-free hose assemblies. The 43 series is the industry standard and has many years’ proven performance and reliability in the field. All these are backed up by full service support from Parker’s distributor networks.
