Hose Assembly Guidelines

Minimum Bend Radius: 4-6 times inner diameter (varies by hose type)
Length Safety Margin: Add 10-15% to straight-line distance
Flow Velocity: Should not exceed 30 ft/sec for standard applications
Safety Factor: Working pressure should be 1/4 of burst pressure
Temperature: Consider temperature effects on hose ratings
Routing: Avoid sharp edges and abrasive surfaces
