ZF 0501.223.087 HOSE PIPE | OEM Genuine Part for WG260 & WG310 Series
Engineered for the rigorous demands of off-highway applications, the ZF 0501.223.087 hose pipe is a critical fluid conveyance component within the WG260 and WG310 transmission families. As an OEM genuine part, it ensures precise hydraulic pressure delivery and thermal management, directly influencing shift quality and system longevity. Unlike aftermarket alternatives, this hose pipe is manufactured to ZF’s exacting tolerances, utilizing reinforced elastomeric compounds that resist degradation from high-temperature transmission fluids and abrasive environmental contaminants.
This specific conduit is designed to maintain structural integrity under cyclic pressure spikes common in heavy-duty loader and dozer operations. Its internal bore geometry is optimized to minimize flow restriction, reducing parasitic losses that can compromise overall drivetrain efficiency. For fleet managers and service technicians, specifying the 0501.223.087 eliminates the risk of premature hose collapse or leakage, which can lead to costly clutch pack damage or torque converter starvation.
Compatibility Notes
- Primary Application: ZF WG260 series transmissions (all variants including WG260-2, WG260-3).
- Secondary Application: ZF WG310 series transmissions (limited to specific hydraulic circuit routing configurations—verify with OEM parts catalog).
- Not Compatible: WG200, WG250, or WG400 series due to differing port diameters and bend radii.
- Fluid Type: Designed for ZF TE-ML 03 or 05 approved transmission oils only.
Maintenance Schedule
Inspect this hose pipe during every transmission oil change interval (typically every 1,000 operating hours or 12 months, whichever comes first). Replace immediately if any surface cracking, blistering, or fluid seepage is observed at the crimp fittings. As a proactive measure, ZF recommends scheduled replacement every 4,000 hours or 48 months in high-vibration environments (e.g., wheel loaders, material handlers) to prevent fatigue failure at the hose-to-fitting interface.
