NL680 is a black, polyurethane covered hose for medium pressure applications (similar pressure as SAE100R2 rubber hose) but is used where a rubber hose is not suitable. This hose is widely found in instrumentation and control applications because of its low expansion in impulse applications, such as on hydraulic lifts, or where a wire reinforced hose will "fray" - such as on forklift boom pulleys. This low expansion permits more accurate control and more direct response, whereas a rubber hose with wire reinforcement will tend to slightly flex or bulge. It is a lightweight hose that is highly compact and resistant to a wide range of fluids and chemicals.
