New Synflex by Danfoss 3TMH thermoplastic hydraulic hose offers superior performance for material handling applications

Danfoss Power Solutions has officially launched Synflex by Danfoss 3TMH, a new thermoplastic hydraulic hose that was developed for material-handling equipment, including telehandlers, boom lifts, and scissor lifts. The 3TMH hose provides 10× more abrasion resistance compared to standard hoses, supports 1 million impulse cycles without performance degradation, and is up to 40% more flexible (which minimizes installation time and maximizes routing in confined spaces). The hose's construction includes a synthetic rubber (or patented Dura-Pulse™) inner tube, one or two wire braid reinforcement, and a thermoplastic polyurethane cover for superior sealing and leak prevention. In a wider context of the latest hydraulic industry directions, this emphasis on durability, uptime, and flexibility is indicative of the industry's ongoing development and interest in delayed service life and reduced maintenance costs.
