Overview
The ZF 2095.247.018 TUBE is a precision-engineered hydraulic fluid conduit designed for high-pressure oil circulation within ZF construction machinery transmissions. This OEM genuine part, identified by SKU 2095.247.018, sits between the transmission housing and the valve body assembly, directing lubricant to critical gear sets and clutch packs. Manufactured to exacting ZF tolerances, this tube ensures consistent fluid delivery under extreme load conditions, preventing cavitation and maintaining hydraulic pressure stability in heavy-duty applications.
Symptoms of Failure
- Hydraulic fluid seepage at tube connections: When the ZF 2095.247.018 tube develops micro-fractures or flange distortion, you may notice oil residue accumulating around the tube ends, particularly after extended operation in high-vibration environments.
- Erratic gear engagement under load: A compromised tube reduces oil flow to clutch packs, causing delayed or harsh shifting when the transmission is under heavy torque demand.
- Transmission overheating with no external leaks: Internal tube collapse restricts fluid circulation, leading to elevated sump temperatures despite normal oil levels.
- Whining noise from the pump circuit: Air ingestion through a cracked tube creates aeration, producing a distinct high-pitched sound during cold starts.

Compatibility
This tube is primarily used in ZF WG180, WG200, and WG250 series transmissions found in wheel loaders, excavators, and telehandlers. It also appears in select ZF Ecomat 4HP and 5HP models used in municipal trucks. The 2095.247.018 tube interfaces directly with the 2095101022: TRANSMISSION HOUSING and the 2095301025: TRANSMISSION HOUSING assemblies. During installation, always replace the 0634304731: O-RING to ensure a leak-free seal, and verify the 4475280150: SCREW PLUG is torqued to specification.
