Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 16301:2017(E)
Rubber and plastics hoses and hose assemblies, wire- or
textile-reinforced, for manually operated hydraulic jacks —
Specification
1 Scope
This document specifies the requirements for three classes of wire- or textile-reinforced hydraulic
hoses and hose assemblies of nominal sizes ranging from 5 to 25. The hoses and hose assemblies are
used in hydraulic jack applications with manually operated hand pumps. They are suitable for use with
hydraulic fluids HH, HL, HM, HR and HV at temperature ranging from −40 °C to +55 °C. For tools that
[3]
require heavy duty services such as a rescue tool, ISO 19718 applies.
This document does not include requirements for the connection ends. It is limited to the performance
of hoses and hose assemblies. The maximum working pressure of hose assemblies is regulated by the
lowest maximum working pressure of the components.
NOTE 1 It is the responsibility of the user, in consultation with the hose manufacturer, to establish the
compatibility of the hose with the fluid to be used.
NOTE 2 There are two International Standards for hoses for hydraulic jacks and tool applications, i.e.
ISO 16301 and ISO 19718. The comparison table is given in Annex A.
[2]
NOTE 3 The classification of HH, HL, HM, HR and HV is found in ISO 6743-4 .

4  List of significant hazards
4.1 General
This clause contains some of the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events, as far as they are
dealt with in this document, identified by risk assessment as significant for this type of machinery and
which require action to eliminate or reduce the risk.
4.2  Hazards due to bursting or leaking of hoses
Hazards can occur when a hose bursts or leaks. The escaping stream of liquid can cause personal injury
or property damage.

ISO 16301:2017(E)

4.3  Hazards due to failure of connectors
Hazards can occur when a connector fails. The escaping stream of liquid can cause physical damage
and also a sudden repositioning of the hose assembly in a dangerous manner (whip).

4.4  Hazards due to errors by the operator
Hazards can occur if the operator uses incompatible substances or incompatible components. Hazards
can also occur if the operator exceeds the limits of use specified by the manufacturer (e.g. too high
pressure, too high tensile stress), also pinhole caused by kink might result in a significant injury.
