The longer your equipment is down the greater the loss and cost.
Hydraulic system failures cause 35% to 65% of all mobile equipment downtimes – a great part of which due to relatively simple and cheap hydraulic hoses.
Replacement by a hose assembly purchased from a nearby 3rd party hose workshop |
4-24 hours | 100% acquisition costs |
On-site replacement by a 3rd party mobile service |
2 to 4 hours | 300% acquisition costs |
On-site replacement with a hose assembly made by YOURSELF with the Parkrimp® |
1 to 2 hours | 70% acquisition costs |
Consider the following …
- Do you lose money when your equipment is down?
- Do you have to travel a far distance to reach the nearest hose workshop?
- Do you have to wait a considerable time for a replacement hose assembly?
- Do you have to replace hose assemblies often?
- Do you have to replace hose assemblies at night or on weekends?
