I use to repair and maintain about 10 hydraulic cylinder testing benches. Pressure was set to 3000-4200 psi. These benches were for two way cylinders. Instant pressure one way for 1-20 seconds (depending on cylinder size) then instantly dumped and port #2 pressurized. Even with massive coolers these benches would get hot and run 24hrs day. We used the tough cover Parker hoses. The only reason we would replace them is the hoses would flex and relax and rub the hoses against the cylinders, sides of the benches and finally wear the cover off down to the braided cover. These hoses are very thick and not all that flexible lol.
It appears that Parker also made a Super Tough cover hose 5,000/20,000 burst with multiple braided layers I may check some of that out.
