It is permissible to use couplings that have had the zinc-chromate coating removed by bead blasting or exposure to non-caustic chemicals. Such couplings should be painted after they are assembled onto hoses to prevent corrosion damage.

Caterpillar does not recommend welding on hose couplings. Welding could cause localized stresses which can lead to reduced fatigue strength and performance life.
