How to maintain and service the air brake hose?

1. It is recommended to check the brake hose at least once a year, or after a certain mileage (such as every 30,000 to 60,000 kilometers). For vehicles that often drive under bad road conditions, more frequent inspections should be carried out.
2. Check whether the brake hose has obvious aging, wear, cracks or oil leakage. Pay special attention to whether there are abnormal conditions such as cracks, bulges or depressions on the surface of the hose.
3. Clean the dirt, oil and dust on the surface of the brake hose regularly to ensure that the surface of the hose remains clean. This helps to detect abnormal conditions on the surface of the hose in time
4. Check whether the joints of the brake hose are loose or not sealed tightly to avoid oil leakage
5. Try to avoid parking for a long time in high temperature environments, such as under the scorching sun or in a high-temperature garage. High temperature will accelerate the aging of the brake hose rubber and shorten its service life
6. Try to avoid driving under bad road conditions, such as gravel roads, potholes, etc. These road conditions may cause the brake hose to be scratched or hit by external forces, causing damage
7. Replace the brake hose regularly according to the vehicle usage and the manufacturer's recommendations. It is generally recommended to replace the brake hose every 2 years or every 30,000-40,000 kilometers.
8. Try to avoid frequent and sudden braking operations to reduce the working pressure and wear of the brake hose.
