Abstract
According to the invention, the coupler (1) for a textile-reinforced rubber hose is of the type comprising a metal end-fitting (2) and a metal bush (3) between which one end of the hose (5) is imprisoned by crimping. The coupler (1) has three separate zones, a zone (A) providing a fastening function, a zone (ED) providing a dynamic-sealing function and an intermediate zone (ES) providing a static-sealing function. Such a coupler enables textile-reinforced rubber hoses to be used at pressures of the order of 200 bar.
