Ultraflex Hydraulic Hose Set 6m | Ultraflex 42117K

Ultraflex KIT OB/M-60 is a set of two factory-crimped hydraulic hoses for Ultraflex OB/M series hydraulic steering systems, designed to connect the steering pump (helm) to the cylinder on an outboard engine. The set is length-matched for installations requiring a pair of hoses with an effective length of 6 (length units according to the manufacturer's standard – the "60" set corresponds to a typical section for boats with medium deck length and standard routing through the console). The hoses are assembled by Ultraflex, have factory-finished ends with threads compatible with Ultraflex pumps and actuators (OB and M series), and are ready for immediate installation without additional crimping. The design includes a flexible reinforced braid and a coating resistant to marine environments, UV radiation, and salt mist, which reduces the risk of swelling, micro-leaks, and degradation. Installation involves routing the hoses along the smoothest possible path from the pump to the actuator, maintaining a minimum bending radius, and securing them to fixed hull elements with clamps every few tens of centimeters; the ends should be screwed into the pump and cylinder ports according to the flow direction and the manufacturer's recommended tightening torque, after which the system should be filled and bled with the dedicated Ultraflex hydraulic fluid. The set is intended for upgrading or servicing hydraulic systems in boats with outboard engines within the power specifications of OB/M sets and where hoses of nominal length 60 are required.
