NORDBORG, DENMARK — Danfoss Power Solutions today announced the launch of its Aeroquip by Danfoss FC619C Corrugated Suction Hose, designed for hydraulic suction and return lines. With its superior flexibility and resistance to high temperatures, abrasion, and vacuum collapse, FC619C is engineered to extend hose life and simplify installation. The hose is suitable for mobile and industrial equipment applications.
FC619C hose features the industry’s tightest corrugated hose bend radius. Its one-to-one ratio bend radius, combined with its reduced force to bend, makes the hose exceptionally easy to handle and install in tight spaces.
Built to exceed SAE 100R4 and ISO 18752 standards, FC619C hose is designed to ensure reliable, leak-free performance. The hose is constructed of a nitrile inner tube, helical wire between two textile reinforcement layers, and a DuraTUFF+ abrasion-resistant cover, which offers 100 times the abrasion resistance of standard rubber. The hose features a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 135°C (-40°F to 275°F) with superior high-temperature performance. Its resistance to collapse and buckling maximizes hose lifespan, while its chemical resistance and Class 0 leakage per SAE J1176 provide reliable, leak-free operation.
“FC619C is a top-tier suction hose that demonstrates the Danfoss commitment to innovation, quality, and performance that goes beyond the standards,” said Scott Bauman, Product Manager, Aeroquip, Danfoss Power Solutions. “The FC619C hose is the first product we’re introducing in our new Edge Series product line. Encompassing our core Aeroquip hoses, the Edge Series offers advanced abrasion and temperature performance for all hydraulic hose needs, including suction, low-, medium-, and high-pressure applications.”
Aeroquip by Danfoss FC619C Corrugated Suction Hose is available in -12 to -48 sizes (inner diameter of 0.75 to 3 inches/19 to 76.2 millimeters) and is qualified for use with Danfoss 1A and 1G fittings. Its working pressure ranges from 60 to 305 psi (4 to 21 bar), depending on size. The hose is MSHA and ABS approved. In addition to hydraulic applications, the hose is suitable for petroleum, fuel, lubricating oil, and water suction and transfer applications.
