Crimp Diameter Formula = Hose OD - Hose ID + Shank OD + (2 x Ferrule/Sleeve Wall Thickness) + [ ( - Compression Percentage) x Hose OD - Hose ID) /100]

Important Note:

Crimp diameter calculation instructions and compression percentages are only to be used as a guide. Hydrostatic pressure testing of all assemblies is highly recommended to assure maximum performance.
