Provided is a co-axial hydraulic hose assembly (10) having a co-axial hose coupling (100) releasably joining an inner hose (20) and an outer hose (50) of the assembly in a fluidly sealed engagement. The coupling construction comprises an end seal nut (110) that securely fixes each end of the inner hose (20) to each respective end of the outer hose (50), but which may be removed so that the inner hose (20) may be removed if it has ruptured. Thus, a ruptured inner hose (20) may be removed and replaced with a new inner hose (20) inside of the original outer hose (50), and then the end seal nut (110) is replaced at each end of the hose assembly (100) to secure the two hoses releasably together in a fluidly sealed engagement, thereby allowing for continued use of the repaired co-axial hose. |
