Hydraulic Thermoplastic Hose and Couplings Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Product Type (Hydraulic Thermoplastic Hose and Hydraulic Couplings), By Application (Construction Equipment, Lubrication Lines, Industrial and Material Handling Equipment, Agricultural Equipment, Power and Telephone Mobile Equipment and Other Applications) and Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Hydraulic Thermoplastic Hose and Couplings Market is accounted for $8.20 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $12.04 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period. A thermoplastic pipe called a hydraulic thermoplastic hose is made to transport fluids required for transferring force inside hydraulic machinery. It's crucial to choose the right raw materials when making hoses because hydraulic applications involve high temperatures and pressures. Thermoplastic is a preferred material for making hydraulic hoses due to its superior properties, which include its capacity to withstand high pressure, high abrasion resistance, and low weight. Contrarily, couplings are used to join two hoses at their ends in order to transmit the necessary power. Agricultural and construction machinery, industrial and material handling equipment, lubrication lines, and mobile power and telephone equipment are just a few instances of the equipment that uses hydraulic thermoplastic hose and couplings.

According to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), approximately 70% - 80% of total U.S. agricultural equipment demand is supplied from regional manufacturers. Thus, it provides opportunities for key market players to explore business in the agricultural segment.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Flourishing construction industry is driving the market

One of the key factors propelling the hydraulic thermoplastic hose and couplings market is the recovery of the construction sector following the financial crisis. Mechanization in the industrial and agricultural sectors is increasing, which also helps to drive up demand. The demand for construction tools and supplies has increased as a result of the need for new structures and essential infrastructures like roads, water, sewage, and electricity. In the upcoming years, it is anticipated that increasing use of thermoplastic hose and couplings in building construction will stimulate market prospects globally.

Restraint:

Excessive velocity damages the hose

To avoid exceeding the hoses' operating limits, it's critical to be aware of their limitations. The inner surfaces of the hose's tube will be harmed by excessive velocity, and other system components may also be harmed by tube debris. Due to friction, an excessive flow rate will also increase the temperature of the hydraulic fluid, such aspects restrain market growth.

Opportunity:

Flexibility and Shelf life

The main benefit of using a thermoplastic hydraulic hose is that it outlasts rubber hoses on a consistent basis. You are significantly less likely to experience any significant malfunctions or downtime because thermoplastic hydraulic applications display exceptional durability and performance. Because they are much more resistant to abrasion than rubber-based alternatives, thermoplastic hydraulic hoses are better suited for use in challenging environments. On the other hand, a thermoplastic hydraulic hose is more resistant to UV light and can be stored without degrading for an extended period of time. The use of hydraulic thermoplastic hose and couplings will increase as a result of these benefits.

Threat:

Short life span due to excessive temperatures

Lower temperatures cause the hose to crack without losing its softness or flexibility, whereas higher temperatures can cause the hose to become hard, brittle, and cracked. The longer the hose can be used without experiencing material degradation, the cooler the hose fluids can be safely used at temperatures well below the rated maximum. Hoses must be protected from external heat sources like engine manifolds, which can quickly shorten their lifespan and frequently cause fires, and must be routed and shielded properly.

Covid-19 Impact

Hydraulic hose and coupling sales have been impacted globally by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, a few ecosystem players saw opportunities as a result of the pandemic. Chemical and gas hoses are in demand because there are active pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities all over the world. Industrial hoses are used in dosing systems, pelleting machines, vacuum conveying equipment, and suction conveyors in the pharmaceutical industry. Automotive is the sector most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic's negative effects, followed by the oil and gas sector. During the lockdown, automobile production was scaled back or stopped entirely in Europe and North America. However, it is anticipated that after the pandemic, vehicle production will increase, which will spur demand for industrial hoses like water, gas, and chemical hoses over the forecast period.

The Construction Equipment segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The construction equipment segment accounted for more than one-fourth of the market's overall revenue, making it the largest share segment for the hydraulic thermoplastic hose and couplings market during the forecast period. Construction equipment demand is expected to increase along with infrastructure development in emerging economies, which in turn is anticipated to support demand for hydraulic thermoplastic hoses and hydraulic couplings. The construction industry is anticipated to quickly recover from the recent economic recession in developed economies.

The Hydraulic Couplings segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The Hydraulic Couplings segment is anticipated to witness highest CAGR during the projection period. Because they are more prone to damage than any other part of the hydraulic assembly, hydraulic couplings are expected to experience higher demand for replacement than hydraulic thermoplastic hoses. Couplers are essential for joining two hoses together. As a result, careful coupling selection and installation are required to lower maintenance costs and shorten machine downtime. Additionally, couplings have become the preferred connecting element over the conventional nut and bolt joints for hydraulic applications due to the superior benefits they offer, such as light weight, simple mounting and installation, and better resistance to environmental conditions.

Region with largest share:

In terms of both revenue and volume, Asia Pacific was the region with the largest market for hydraulic thermoplastic hose and couplings and is expected to maintain its dominant position throughout the forecast period. In the Asia Pacific, China, India, and Japan were the three largest markets for hydraulic thermoplastic hose and couplings. Moreover, the region's increased infrastructural development and booming construction industry can be credited with its dominance. The region's rising need for agricultural automation is another factor contributing to the demand for hydraulic products.

Region with highest CAGR:

Over the forecast period, Europe is anticipated to register the highest CAGR. The construction industry in these areas is prepared to resume its prior growth rates, providing the necessary boost to market growth, particularly in the first half of the forecast period, as markets demonstrate economic stability. On the other hand, the market is being driven by manufacturers' massive investments in R & D and growing infrastructural development in order to keep up with new technologies and production.
