Hose Saver Protection Sleeves

Hose Saver sleeves provide reliable hydraulic and pneumatic hose protection against abrasion, contamination, UV exposure, weather, and other harsh environmental conditions. They help extend hose service life while reducing downtime, oil loss, and premature hose replacement.
Made from heat- and chemical-resistant materials, these sleeves are available for various hose sizes. Each sleeve wraps around an individual hose or hose bundle, helping keep contaminants out and providing an additional layer of durability in demanding working environments.
The easy-to-install design features a VELCRO® closure for quick and simple installation without disconnecting the hose.
Hose Saver sleeves are suitable for industrial machinery, heavy equipment, ocean vessels, hydraulic systems, pneumatic systems, and other demanding applications. They help shield hoses from abrasion, ultraviolet rays, wind, rain, snow, and dry rot.
We supply Hose Saver sleeves manufactured by Seal Saver, available in different material options, sizes, and roll lengths to meet various hose requirements.
Materials & Sizes
Hose Savers are available in three heat and chemical resistance material options; ballistic nylon, Kevlar, and Coated Silica Cloth. These sleeves can be made to fit hoses ranging from 0.5″ diameter up to 13″ diameter and are sold by the foot in lengths up to 100 feet.
1. Nylon Ballistic

Product Description
Ballistic Nylon is woven from nylon yarns of various denier (weight), with the double weave 1050 denier fabric being most durable for its weight level. This sturdy yet flexible nylon is resistant to abrasion, water, oil, sunlight, and tearing and is backed with polyurethane, which aids in waterproofing. The material will not break down with age and can be used in temperatures continuously up to 250 °F, making it suitable for protecting hydraulic and pneumatic hoses in most working environments.

2. Silicon Coated Kevlar

Product Description
Kevlar fiber is a lightweight fabric woven face down in a 3/1 left hand twill pattern. The fabric is coated on both sides with medium gray silicone rubber. It is resistant to some chemicals and acids and protects hydraulic and pneumatic hoses that may be exposed to rocks, sharp objects or edges, caustic or acidic substances, or heat up to 600 °F, making it suitable for applications where a stronger, denser fabric is needed.
NOTE: The Kevlar fabric has passed FAA’s one hour “Igloo Fire Test”, which may allow certain narrow body combi airplane operators to comply with the FAA’s new air worthiness directive #AD-93-07-15.
