A condition of equal opposed hydraulic forces acting on a part in a hydraulic component.

A measure of pressure equal to about 14.7 psi.

The woven portion of a hose used as reinforcement to increase pressure and hoop strength. Materials used can be polyester, cotton, or metal wire. A hose may have one or two braids applied outside or between layers of hose material.

A valve having a four way functional capability that may be proportionately actuated by a solenoid to control the operating spool in infinite resolution. Movement of the spool from extreme end to extreme end completely reverses the flow paths of the ports. See FOUR WAY.

A valve having a four way functional capability that may be solenoid activated to directly control the operating spool. Movement of the spool from extreme end to extreme end reverses the flow paths of the ports. See FOUR WAY.

A valve having a four way functional capability that may be solenoid activated to directly control the operating spool which then controls a secondary, larger spool. Movement of the secondary spool from extreme end to extreme end reverses the flow paths of the ports. See FOUR WAY.

A series of wire or fabric meshes which are bonded together by caps or perforated cylinders and are fitted into hydraulic system passages to strain particles from fluid passed through the passage.

ABRASION External damage to the hose assembly caused by rubbing on a foreign object, wearing away by friction.
