Description
The corrugated hose, also known as a corrugated coupling or transition hose, is a hose designed with a corrugated or raised shape. It is used to connect two components or sections of a fluid or air intake system that are misaligned or require flexibility to accommodate movement or vibration.
Features
- Serves as a flexible connector to bridge the gap between two components that are not perfectly aligned.
- Absorbs shock and vibration, compensates for misalignment and reduces stress on hoses and connected components.
- Fittings and connectors on both ends for easy, secure connection.
Applications
The corrugated hose is used to connect the turbocharger to the air line.

| Hose Warning | Improper selection of hose and coupling combinations will void the warranty and may result in serious injury or death, property damage, or component and machine system failure. Cat® hose assembly products are designed and tested as a system to achieve reliable connections, maximizing hydraulic system safety and reliability. In addition, use of properly maintained, appropriate Caterpillar tooling is recommended to ensure hoses are crimped to specification. Using Caterpillar hose with another manufacturer's couplings, or Caterpillar couplings with another manufacturer's hose, may result in hose assemblies that are unreliable, unsafe or perform poorly. Caterpillar does not recommend or endorse this practice. For more information, refer to SAE J1273 Section 6.3 and ISO 17165-2 Section 6.3. |
