Proper assembly of Continental ContiTech hose and ttings
Continental ContiTech hose, ttings and crimping equipment work together to provide an ecient and reliable
hose connection. Continental ContiTech hose and ttings are part of an engineered system and are to be used in
accordance with Continental ContiTech specications. Using non-Continental ContiTech components may pro-
duce an assembly that does not meet rated performance. Continental ContiTech does not warrant, expressly
or by implication, hose assemblies that do not incorporate Continental ContiTech hose and ttings, or
are not crimped in accordance with Continental ContiTech process specications.
Buyers may elect to attach additional or non-standard parts or equipment, or to use dierent manufacturing
specications as necessary to meet the requirements of the buyer or the customer’s application. In such cases,
the buyer has sole responsibility to qualify the hose for the applications as necessary to ensure performance
capability.
For guidance in the assembly of Continental ContiTech hose and couplings, please refer to the Continental Con-
tiTech Crimp Specications Manual. Information in this catalog is believed to be accurate, but is not warranted
