Hose Ends Push Lock 6

Reliability and performance are critical to your vehicle's steering system. When building your steering lines, choosing a quality hose end is essential for maintaining the integrity of your hydraulic system. Lee Power Steering has sourced the industry's highest-quality power steering hose ends to ensure a hassle-free building experience.

These components, designed for precision and durability, ensure a secure connection between power steering hoses and the associated fittings–even under extreme pressure and temperature conditions.

We offer a complete line of high-pressure reusable and low-pressure push-lock hose ends. For pressure ends, we only offer -6AN ends in straight, 45-degree, and 90-degree options. For low pressure hoses, we offer -6AN, -8AN, -10AN and -12AN in straight, 45-degree, 90 degree, and 1120-degree options. We do not sell OEM hoses.

Why Quality Power Steering Hose Ends Matter

Power steering hose ends are vital for the seamless operation of hydraulic steering systems. These systems use hydraulic fluid to transfer force, making the hose ends a crucial connection point. Poor-quality hose ends can lead to fluid leaks, pressure loss, and (ultimately) steering failure.

High-quality, high-pressure hose ends ensure:

• Leak prevention: high-grade materials and precise engineering prevent fluid leaks, which can damage your steering pump and compromise safety.
• Enhanced durability: withstands extreme temperatures and pressures and is designed to last in challenging environments.
• Optimal performance: maintaining consistent hydraulic pressure for smooth and responsive steering.
• Easy installation: user-friendly features like swivel fittings and universal compatibility.

Investing in high-performance power steering hose ends helps ensure your vehicle's steering system's safety, performance, and longevity. You can enjoy precision handling and peace of mind on the road or track with the right components.

Frequently Asked Questions About Power Steering Hose Ends

What are power steering hose ends, and what do they do?

Power steering hose ends are fittings that connect hydraulic hoses to components like pumps, steering racks, and reservoirs. They maintain a secure, leak-proof connection to ensure consistent hydraulic pressure and fluid flow.

How do I choose the proper power steering hose end for my vehicle?

Consider the hose diameter and angle needed to route your hose correctly.

How often should power steering hose ends be replaced?

Replacing your hose ends depends on the wear and tear of your existing ones. Inspecting them during routine maintenance can help catch issues early. Replace them immediately if you notice leaks, corrosion, or signs of damage.

Are hose ends different for high-pressure and low-pressure lines?

Yes. You can assemble high-pressure ends yourself. These are referred to as "reusable" ends. They are made of steel and can handle over 2000 PSI. For low-pressure lines, we recommend aluminum "push-lock" ends. These would be used in feed and return lines where pressures never exceed 300 PSI. Always ensure your hose is compatible with the end you are purchasing.

Do I need to use hose clamps on my power steering lines?

We recommend using a hose clamp on low-pressure lines. While many people do not, the technicians at Lee Power Steering see fewer leaks over time when using a clamp. High-pressure lines do not need a clamp. The ends are either a crimped connection or a two-piece screw-together "reusable" type connection.

Can faulty hose ends cause steering problems?

Yes. Damaged or poorly installed hose ends can lead to fluid leaks, pressure drops, and total steering failure. Always use high-quality, properly installed components.
