Cabriolet Hydraulics patented hydraulic Couplers are designed to repair or reconnect the most common hydraulic hoses (also known as lines or pipes) used in modern convertible top hydraulic systems. In many cases, leaking convertible top hydraulic hoses can be easily and permanently repaired on-the-car with basic hand tools. Hoses are crimped internally and externally the same way as they are with the factory connectors. Most hydraulic systems with these small bore (internal) diameter lines operate at a peak pressure of 200 bar or 2900 psi. Cabriolet Hydraulics hose couplers are pressure tested to 10,000 psi without failure.
Cabriolet Hydraulics hose repair Couplers* fit many factory (OEM) hydraulic hoses installed in modern convertibles, vario-roof and retractable hardtops made by:
Audi, Bentley, BMW, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Maserati, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Pontiac, Rolls Royce, Saab, Volkswagen, Volvo and others. See
Coupler Installation Requirements
below.
Cabriolet Hydraulics' high quality Hose Couplers* are made in the USA.

Coupler Installation Requirements:
Cabriolet Hydraulics Couplers fit only factory installed hoses with 1.8mm and 2.0mm internal (bore) diameters and 4.5mm outer diameters. Check printing on your damaged OEM hose to identify the actual hose bore diameter. Couplers* will fit hoses with the following printed designations: AF1.8, DN1.8 for 1.8mm and AF2.0, DN2.0 for 2mm bores. The hoses must have a 4.5mm outer diameter. Actual outer diameters can vary between 4.45mm and 4.55mm.
(See Pic. 1)
for examples of printed sizes on the most common factory installed hoses. Measure the outer hose diameter with a precision vernier caliper.
The Coupler can be used to reattach a hose with a minimum length of .750” (19mm) from the metal connector,
(see Pic. 2)
. A hose should not be cut too close to the fitting unless it is necessary for the repair.
The Coupler must not interfere with the top mechanism. The repaired hose must have an adequate bend radius so that it does not fold or collapse on itself during operation.
(See Pic. 2)
for coupler dimensions.
Space must be provided for handling the installation tools.
The coupler is designed for a one-time use. Once the coupler is crimped, it cannot be reused.
Couplers will not fit hoses for the following convertibles:
1998-2003 Saab 9-3 Cabriolet
1997-2006 Jaguar XK8/XKR
1996-2003 Bentley Azure

The Ebay global shipping calculator seems to overcharge shipping when purchasing multiple items in one listing. In an effort to reduce the cost, we have multiple listings with varying quantities.  To estimate the shipping charges, use the shipping calculator before making your purchase. Once the item is shipped, shipping charges cannot be refunded.
