What lengths does the Uflex KITOB hydraulic hose kit come in?

The KITOB kit is available in two lengths: a 12 foot version (KITOB-12') and a 14 foot version (KITOB-14'), with both hoses in the kit matching the selected length.

How do I choose between the 12 foot and 14 foot kit?

Measure the actual hose routing distance from your helm pump to the steering cylinder, following the path the hose will take including any bends, then pick the kit length that comfortably covers that distance. If your measurement falls between the two lengths, choose the 14 foot kit and secure the extra hose.

How many hoses are included in each kit?

Each KITOB kit includes two hydraulic hoses of matching length, sold as a pair for a complete steering line set.

Do the hoses come with fittings already attached?

Yes, both ends of every hose in the KITOB kit ship with fittings preassembled, so no separate fitting hardware needs to be sourced for installation.

What are the bend restrictors for?

The bend restrictors fitted to both ends of each hose help prevent the hose from kinking or flexing excessively at the connection points, a common wear area on hydraulic steering hoses.

Can I mix a 12 foot hose with a 14 foot hose from different kits?

Each KITOB kit is sold as a matched pair of equal-length hoses; if you need two different lengths for a single installation, you would need to purchase hoses individually rather than combining two kits.

Is this kit compatible with Uflex outboard and inboard steering systems?

The KITOB kit is designed as a hydraulic steering hose set for use with Uflex helm pumps and cylinders; confirm fitting compatibility with your specific helm and cylinder model before ordering.

How much does the hose kit weigh?

The 12 foot kit weighs approximately 2.9 pounds; the 14 foot kit will weigh slightly more due to the additional hose length.

$174.00

The Uflex KITOB Hydraulic Steering Hose Kit is a matched pair of hydraulic steering hoses built for connecting an Uflex helm pump to a cylinder, ram, or outboard steering system. Each kit ships as two identical-length hoses with fittings preassembled on both ends of every hose, eliminating the need to source or crimp separate fitting hardware during installation. Bend restrictors are fitted at both ends of each hose to reduce kinking and excessive flexing at the connection points, one of the most common wear areas on a hydraulic steering line. Choose the hose length that matches the routing distance between your helm and steering cylinder to complete or replace a hydraulic steering run.

Sizes & Options

This hose kit is available in two lengths: 12 feet and 14 feet, with both hoses in a given kit matching that length. Select the length based on the actual routing distance from the helm pump to the steering cylinder or outboard ram, measuring along the planned hose path rather than a straight-line distance, and allowing for any bends or service loops. If the measured run falls between the two offered lengths, choose the longer kit and coil or secure the excess hose rather than risk a hose that will not reach.
