Product Performance
Lasts up to 3 times longer
Gates Global wire-braid hose and MegaCrimp® coupling assemblies are developed to
withstand impulse testing to 600,000 cycles.
Gates Global spiral-wire hose and GlobalSpiral™ coupling assemblies even go to
1,000,000 cycles.
Gates standard products have 10 times abrasion resistance of ISO specifications.
Gates unique MegaTuff™ and XtraTuff™ hose covers provide respectively 300 times/25
times greater abrasion resistance than standard hoses, providing you with extended
product lifetime even under the harshest conditions.
Gates MegaTuff™ and XtraTuff™ hose covers are made of a special hybrid compound
offering an exceptional resistance to Abrasion. Oil, ozone, chemicals, weathering
More compact assemblies, increased flexibility, faster routing
Gates Global hoses are your ideal choice for tight, tortuous applications. They provide
high flexibility even on the tightest applications.
Gates Global hoses are designed to deliver their superior performance at incredibly tight
bend radii and manufactured to require minimal bending force.
