| (1) Composition of the Hydraulic Hoses | |
| Tube Rubber | This prevents leakage of the fluid during use. |
| Wire-reinforced Layer | This prevents expansion and bursting of the inner surface rubber due to pressure. |
| Inter-layer Rubber | This prevents friction between the wires and strengthens the adhensiveness of the wire layer. |
| String Braid | This prevents damage to the wire layer from outside, and also prevents rusting. |
