Attachment Hydraulic Hose Pressure Relief

[TheOldHokie]

Thanks, I think I get it now.
The overall volume can increase because of the volume that the rod occupies lets the piston side expand.
But I'm now guessing that if the rod is fully retracted when hoses connected that it's at max volume and will pressurize?

No .

When retracted its at minumum volums and rod will extend to make room for expansion.

At full extension it cannot extend and will pressurize.

When locked oressure at rod end is always greater than base end.

Just invest in some better couplers

nbryan - what a great idea - retractible cuffs for bad weather and dirt!!

That woven sleeve is f...ing expensive. $5-10/ft depending on size, how the hell can they charge that? Is it some weird material or something? I just about fell over when the stealership told me the bill for a 3ft piece, whoah.
Any ideas out there for a cheaper but equally effective sleeve material?

Yeah, it's expensive ... https://www.boltonhooks.com/product/dura-wrap-sleeving/ $4.50 - $5.50 per foot ... It's where I bought mine!

I'm getting fleeced then even as CAD/USD costs me in Canada, and mine is simple tube, dura-wrap is velcro?
