(Flexihose India) — factory-direct supply across India and GCC export.
What Is SAE 100 R1 Hydraulic Hose?
The SAE 100 R1 hydraulic hose — also written as SAE 100R1 or R1 AT — is a single steel wire braid, medium-pressure hydraulic hose pipe manufactured to the SAE J517 / SAE 100 R1 AT standard. It is the most widely used hydraulic hose type in India, specified for tractors, excavators, backhoe loaders, agricultural machinery, and general industrial hydraulic circuits. The "AT" designation indicates an abrasion-resistant outer cover, making it suitable for field and plant environments where surface wear is a concern.
The Flexihose R1 hose pipe construction uses a black oil-resistant NBR (nitrile butadiene rubber) inner tube, a single braid of high-tensile brass-coated steel wire reinforcement, and a weather-resistant, abrasion-resistant synthetic rubber outer cover. Brochure data covers 1/4″ to 2″ nominal bore, working pressures from 40 bar (2″ bore) to 215 bar (1/4″ bore), minimum burst pressure of 4× working pressure per SAE J517, and a service temperature range of −40°C to +100°C.
Flexihose India manufactures SAE 100 R1 AT hose at our ISO 9001:2015 certified plant in Bhiwadi, Rajasthan — approximately 60 km from Delhi. For OEM buyers, agricultural equipment distributors, construction equipment service companies, industrial plant engineers, and GCC export buyers, we supply factory-direct with test documentation, dimensional compliance to SAE J517, and India-wide dispatch.
SAE 100 R1 Hydraulic Hose — Supply Configurations by Bore Size
The same SAE 100 R1 AT construction is supplied across multiple bore sizes. Working pressure varies by bore — select the right size for your system pressure and flow requirement.
Ideal for tractor pilot circuits, control lines, and small-bore hydraulic connections on agricultural and construction equipment where high pressure in a compact bore is required.
The most widely ordered bore range for Indian agricultural and construction equipment — tractor lift circuits, excavator boom and arm lines, backhoe loader steering, and general industrial hydraulic systems.
Used for hydraulic power packs, industrial machine tool circuits, conveyor drive systems, and commercial vehicle hydraulics where higher flow rates are required at medium working pressures.
For heavy industrial machinery, tipper truck hydraulic systems, refuse compactor circuits, and OEM hose assemblies where large bore and moderate working pressure are the primary requirements.

How to Select the Right SAE 100 R1 Hydraulic Hose — Procurement Guide
A practical step-by-step guide for procurement managers, plant engineers, OEM buyers, and agricultural equipment distributors selecting SAE 100 R1 hose for their application.
Confirm System Working Pressure
SAE 100 R1 is rated from 40 bar (2″ bore) to 215 bar (1/4″ bore). If your system pressure exceeds 150 bar at 1″ bore or larger, consider upgrading to SAE 100 R2 (double wire braid, up to 400 bar). Always apply a safety factor — do not operate at the maximum rated working pressure continuously.
Select Bore Size by Flow Rate
1/4″–3/8″ for pilot and control lines. 1/2″–3/4″ for most tractor and excavator circuits. 1″–1-1/4″ for industrial power packs and machine tools. 1-1/2″–2″ for heavy industrial and OEM assemblies. Undersizing bore increases pressure drop and heat generation — always size for the required flow rate.
Verify Fluid Compatibility
The NBR inner tube is compatible with petroleum-based hydraulic oils (HLP, HM, HV grades), water-glycol mixtures, fuel, and lubricating oils. For phosphate ester fluids or water-based fire-resistant fluids, confirm inner tube compatibility before ordering. Not suitable for aromatic solvents or strong acids.
Check Temperature Range
The service range is −40°C to +100°C. For hydraulic systems with high-temperature oil return lines, heat-generating circuits, or outdoor operation in extreme cold (North India winters, high-altitude construction), confirm the actual operating temperature before specifying.
Specify Fitting Type and Assembly
SAE 100 R1 AT is dimensionally compliant with SAE J517 and accepts standard BSP, JIC (37° flare), and NPT fittings. Flexihose can supply cut lengths, 50m or 100m coil reels, or complete hose assemblies with crimped fittings to your specification. Specify end connection type (male/female, BSP/JIC, straight/elbow) when ordering.

SAE 100 R1 Hose Construction & Materials
Layer-by-layer construction of Flexihose SAE 100 R1 AT hydraulic hose — what each component does and why it matters for hydraulic system reliability.
NBR Inner Tube
Black oil-resistant NBR (nitrile butadiene rubber) synthetic rubber compound. Formulated to resist petroleum-based hydraulic oils (HLP, HM, HV grades), water-glycol mixtures, fuel, and lubricating oils. The inner tube is the primary fluid barrier — its integrity determines hose service life under continuous pressure cycling in tractor, excavator, and industrial hydraulic systems.
Single Wire Braid Reinforcement
Single braid of high-tensile brass-coated steel wire. The brass coating ensures strong adhesion between the wire and rubber layers, preventing delamination under impulse pressure cycling. This single-braid construction delivers the correct balance of flexibility and pressure resistance for medium-pressure hydraulic circuits — up to 215 bar at 1/4″ bore per SAE J517.
AT Outer Cover
The outer cover carries the AT (abrasion-resistant) designation — a weather-resistant, abrasion-resistant, ozone-resistant synthetic rubber compound rated −40°C to +100°C. Protects the steel wire reinforcement from mechanical damage, UV exposure, and mild chemical splash in field conditions across Indian construction sites, agricultural environments, and industrial plants.
In-House Testing & Certification
Every production batch is tested at our Bhiwadi in-house laboratory with NABL-calibrated equipment: hydrostatic burst pressure test (minimum 4× working pressure per SAE J517), impulse pressure cycling, dimensional checks, and outer cover adhesion tests. Test certificates with actual measured values are issued as standard with every order — not templated data.
SAE 100 R1 vs R2 vs R6 — Which Hydraulic Hose to Choose?
Buyers often need to choose between R1, R2, and R6 hydraulic hose. Here is a practical comparison to help with selection for Indian industrial, agricultural, and construction applications.
| Parameter | SAE 100 R1 AT | SAE 100 R2 AT | SAE 100 R6 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reinforcement | 1 × High-tensile steel wire braid | 2 × High-tensile steel wire braid | 1 × Textile braid |
| Max WP at 1/4″ bore | 215 bar (3,120 PSI) | 400 bar (5,800 PSI) | 28 bar (406 PSI) |
| Max WP at 1″ bore | 88 bar (1,275 PSI) | 165 bar (2,395 PSI) | 13 bar (188 PSI) |
| Temperature Range | −40°C to +100°C | −40°C to +100°C | −40°C to +100°C |
| Flexibility | Good | Moderate | Excellent |
| Typical Use | Tractors, excavators, general industrial hydraulics | Presses, cranes, high-pressure circuits | Return lines, pilot circuits, low-pressure |
| Relative Cost | Medium | Higher | Lower |
SAE 100 R1 is the correct choice for most medium-pressure hydraulic circuits in Indian agriculture, construction, and general industry. If your system pressure exceeds 150 bar at 1″ bore, specify R2. For low-pressure return lines below 28 bar, R6 is more cost-effective. Not sure? WhatsApp your system pressure and bore size to +91 8094002348 for a recommendation.
