Equipment that moves, turns, lifts, digs or hauls depends on tough and durable hydraulic hose assemblies to get the job done. Eaton helps transportation, manufacturing and construction professionals tackle their toughest jobs with expertly designed rubber hydraulic hose assemblies that offer longer service life and increased durability in the most demanding applications.
But it doesn’t end there.
Eaton understands the complexity of the machines and systems required to keep jobs moving along. That’s why they improved their hydraulic assemblies to make them more intuitive than ever for easier identification and simpler assembly.
Eaton offers improved identification of key performance characteristics via:
- Single hose and fitting systems
- Unified and consistent terminology
- Helpful graphics, icons and pictograms
- Hose layline color guide

Eaton’s Intelligent Hoses and Laylines Provide Critical Hose Data At-A-Glance
Every application has different requirements such as abrasion-resistance, heat and cold tolerance, pressure and bend radius. For easy identification of hose options, Eaton premium hoses have colored backgrounds while Eaton standard laylines have white and colored text but no colored background. The new design makes hose and layline selection easy, with enhanced readability of:
- Part Numbers
- Size
- Abrasion Cover and Sub Brand
- Agency Specs
- Working Pressure
- Temperature
- SAE Bend
- Core Fittings
- MatchMate*
Note: All of Eaton’s rubber hydraulic hoses will now utilize the simple, intuitive MatchMate hose & fitting system. For Eaton’s Weatherhead hose and fittings, the MatchMate system works just like WeatherMatch — simply under a new name. MatchMate has always made hose assembly quick and easy. The addition of the qualified fitting series printed on the hose layline AND the fitting part number printed on the socket has made it even easier. See example below:

Eaton has made attaining agency compliance easier, too. Now, agency specifications such as SAE, ISO, MSHA, DNV-GL and USCG are labeled on each hose and layline, removing any guesswork. Additionally, any time a hose exceeds SAE and EN specifications, it will be noted on the layline as well.
