Strato Inc.: Empty Load Device Hose Assemblies

Strato Inc.


Strato takes the stress out of operating empty/load devices with its line of empty load device hose assemblies. Because of its flexible hose, the assembly eliminates the stress that produces premature failure in rigid, non-flexible pipe. After working with customers and reviewing results, Strato engineers designed a line of empty load device hose assemblies that use the AAR M-618 double-wire reinforced hose with swivel flanged fittings. The M-618 hose has a 7/8-inch I.D. for improved air flow, and the straight and 90-degree swivel flange fittings allow mechanics to work around tight tolerances and sharp turns.
