Sea star hydraulic steering hose fittings
Submitted by Bailzz on Sun, 2016-09-04 14:04
Found a crack on my hose fittings where it joins on to the cylinder trying to find a replacement end but seems as tho you have to buy a whole new hose set up. From teleflex. Has anyone cut these ends off before and used different fittings

There are replacement ends
There are replacement ends available for the hoses but in my experience they will fail again, better off replacing the hose and not having to redo

Cant see why endzed or some other commercial hose company could clamp one on or build you a new hose ... if it was mine id use metal putty on it and a hose clamp over the crack :)

Take it to Enzed, Pirtek, or
Take it to Enzed, Pirtek, or any other hydraulic service company. The fitting is crimped on and will need the appropriate tooling to fit it.
Also the hose in you photo has been kinked and will need to be cut back untill you get to good hose. Do you have enough hose to allow it to be trimmed?

All of those companies also supply the quick fit push on fittings, far easier to use and replace than the ones supplied.
