Uflex KITOBDBR-03' Dual Cylinder/Dual Engine Connection Hose Kit, 3 Foot Hose Length
The Uflex KITOBDBR-03' is a dual cylinder/dual engine connection hose kit built for hydraulic steering setups that require two separate hydraulic lines running to twin cylinders or twin engines. The kit includes two high pressure flexible hoses finished with pre-crimped brass fittings, so there is no need to source or crimp fittings separately during installation. Both ends of each hose are fitted with bend restrictors, which prevent the hose from kinking or collapsing at the connection point where it flexes during steering and engine movement -- a common failure point on hydraulic steering runs that lack this protection.
This kit is built with a 3 foot hose length, one of several lengths Uflex offers in this same hose kit series (2 foot, 2.5 foot, 3 foot, 4 foot, and 5 foot versions), so boaters can match the kit to the actual distance between their helm and their dual cylinder or dual engine hookup. It is recommended for use with all Uflex Silversteer series cylinders, making it a straightforward addition or replacement hose set for boats running Silversteer hydraulic steering. The complete kit weighs 2.1 pounds.
