Greetings,
My hydraulic tubing is coated to protect against corrosion, but the piping is rusting. I was thinking of replacing the tubing.
The standard hose and threaded end was 3/8 for the loader arms and bucket. The tubing measures .394 O.D. which puts me close to 10mm and larger than 3/8 tubing.
So the question is:
1. Is our piping metric or SAE?
2. Do I purchase 10mm compression fittings or the SAE 3/8"?
Thanks for any help.
