What Is SAE 100R5 Hydraulic Hose?
SAE 100R5 is a hydraulic hose specification commonly used in commercial transportation, industrial machinery, agricultural equipment, and selected mobile hydraulic systems.
Typical SAE 100R5 hose construction includes:
- Oil-resistant synthetic rubber inner tube
- Textile reinforcement
- One braided steel-wire reinforcement layer
- Textile braided outer covering
SAE 100R5 differs from standard SAE 100R1 and SAE 100R2 hydraulic hose in its construction, dimensions, and fitting requirements.
Reusable fittings designed for R5 hose are not automatically interchangeable with fittings intended for R1 or R2 hose.
SAE 100R5 Hose Sizing Information
SAE 100R5 uses a nominal sizing system that differs from many conventional hydraulic and pressure washer hoses.
| R5 Dash Size |
Actual Inside Diameter |
| -04 |
3/16" |
| -05 |
1/4" |
| -06 |
5/16" |
| -08 |
13/32" |
Do not assume that a fitting identified as R5 dash -06 fits conventional 3/8" ID hose.
Before ordering or installing this kit, verify the actual hose inside diameter, outside diameter, construction, and manufacturer-approved fitting series.

Cross-reference numbers for SAE 100R1 reusable hose fittings have intentionally been excluded because R1 fittings are not automatically compatible with R5 hose.
Why This Kit Does Not Work With Most 4,000 PSI Pressure Washer Hoses
Most commercial 3/8" ID pressure washer hoses rated for 4,000 PSI use hose construction different from SAE 100R5.
These hoses may use one or more steel-wire reinforcement layers with rubber or other outer coverings.
Even when a pressure washer hose contains one steel-wire braid, its outside diameter, reinforcement location, and fitting attachment requirements may differ.
The reusable hose ends in this kit are not universal fittings for 4,000 PSI pressure washer hose.
Do not select this kit based only on hose inside diameter or pressure rating.
Why This Kit Does Not Fit Most Carpet Cleaning Hoses
Professional carpet cleaning truckmounts, portable extractors, and tile cleaning machines commonly use high-pressure solution hoses with construction different from SAE 100R5.
Many of these hoses are designed for hot water and cleaning solutions.
The fact that a hose is described as single-wire braided does not mean it accepts SAE 100R5 reusable fittings.
This kit is not recommended for most carpet cleaning or tile cleaning solution hose repairs.
Reusable Hose Fittings vs. Crimp Fittings
Conventional hydraulic hose assemblies frequently use permanently attached crimp fittings.
Reusable hose fittings are designed for attachment to specifically approved hose constructions without requiring a hydraulic crimping machine.
This can be useful for maintenance and field repairs when the exact hose and fitting combination is approved.
Reusable fittings are not universal. A fitting designed for one hose construction may not safely attach to another hose having the same nominal inside diameter.
Installation and Safety Information
Reusable hydraulic hose fittings should be installed only by qualified personnel familiar with hydraulic hose assembly.
- Shut down the equipment and completely relieve system pressure.
- Verify that the hose is the exact manufacturer-approved SAE 100R5 hose construction.
- Confirm the actual hose inside diameter and outside diameter.
- Inspect the hose for damage, deterioration, and compromised reinforcement.
- Follow the fitting manufacturer's installation instructions and required assembly dimensions.
- Verify that the swivel adapters are suitable for the intended connection and sealing method.
- Inspect and pressure-test the completed assembly according to applicable manufacturer requirements.
- Never exceed the lowest working pressure rating of any component in the completed assembly.
Safety Warning: Never use your hands to locate a leak in a pressurized hydraulic system. High-pressure fluid injection injuries require immediate emergency medical attention.

FINAL HOSE COMPATIBILITY REMINDER
This kit is designed for compatible SAE 100R5 textile-covered hydraulic hose.
It is NOT a universal repair kit for pressure washing, carpet cleaning, tile cleaning, or conventional SAE 100R1 hydraulic hose.
Verify hose compatibility before purchasing.
The Steam-Brite 20261338 reusable hydraulic hose fitting is designed for field installation on compatible 3/8" ID single-wire braided pressure hose. When installed correctly, this fitting allows a damaged hose end to be replaced without using a hydraulic hose crimping machine.
Completely depressurize the hose and disconnect it from the equipment. Using a handheld grinder equipped with a suitable cutoff wheel, a hacksaw, or an appropriate hose-cutting tool, cut the damaged hose end off as straight and square as possible.
Remove any loose rubber, metal reinforcement fragments, and cutting debris. Make sure the hose opening is clean, round, and free of obstructions.
Slide the outer reusable fitting collar over the freshly cut hose end. Rotate the collar counterclockwise to thread it onto the outside of the hose.
Continue threading the collar onto the hose until the hose end reaches the internal stop at the bottom of the collar, following the fitting manufacturer's specified insertion depth.
Apply a suitable lubricant compatible with the hose material and the fluid being conveyed to the threaded insert and the inside of the hose opening, as permitted by the fitting manufacturer.
Position the threaded insert squarely into the hose opening. Carefully engage the insert with the outer collar and rotate the insert clockwise to begin assembly, provided this matches the manufacturer's specified thread direction.
Using appropriate wrenches, hold the outer collar stationary while tightening the threaded insert. Continue until the fitting reaches the manufacturer's specified assembled position or tightening specification.
The insert should fit snugly. However, if excessive resistance occurs, stop and inspect the hose and fitting for incorrect sizing, misalignment, or damaged threads. Do not force the fitting together.
After assembly, inspect the fitting to confirm that the hose is properly seated, the collar has not shifted, and the threaded insert is fully installed according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Before returning the hose to service, follow the applicable manufacturer's inspection and pressure-testing procedures. Keep personnel clear of the hose and connections during testing.
