Simple storage for storing. (See question 17, bullet 4)

9. Does the 14’ workbench have to be a single workbench top, or would multiple workbenches installed side-by-side with a top surface area greater than or equal to 14’ suffice? A single workbench is preferred, but multiple would work. Please provide preliminary conceptual layout. (See questions 18 and 20)

10. Does the “cut off saw” need to be rated for cutting hydraulic hose, or can we provide a basic “chop saw”? This requirement is for a Portable Hydraulic Fabrication Container, 230 volt 1-phase cut off saw must be rated for cutting hydraulic hose.

12. What are the power ratings for the main power feed being supplied to the box? 230V Phase 1.

13. Will the box require a disconnect, specific junction hook-up, or transformer for the exterior electrical main power hook up? A specific junction hookup, 230V Phase 1, on the exterior of the container.

14. What is the required/requested rating for the internal electrical panel? Power required to support included equipment only. (See question 22)

15. Do you recommend any specific floor type for the interior of the box (aluminum diamond tread, epoxy coating, etc.)? Standard container flooring would be fine, prefer slip proof material if possible. (See question 27)

16. Small storage bins capable of holding at least 50 different hydraulic fittings.

- How many bins? 50-70

- What size bins? Flexible layout, dimensions, and at vendors discretion: No specifics, must hold 15-20 of a hydraulic fitting. Please provide preliminary conceptual layout.

- What weight capacity? 10 lbs

- What are the dimensions of the storage areas? Flexible layout, dimensions, and at vendors discretion. Please provide preliminary conceptual layout.

- Where are the areas located, i.e. wall, floor etc.? Back wall. Flexible layout and at vendors discretion: One side wall would be storage bins, back wall would be hose reels, and other side wall would be work bench and crimper. Please provide preliminary conceptual layout.

- Who is supplying the hose reels? Not part of the requirement; will be procured locally.

- What is required on the container wall to support the hanging of the hose reels? Simple storage for storing. (See question 8)

18. Work bench at least 14 feet long and 5 feet tall. A single workbench is preferred, but multiple would work. Please provide preliminary conceptual layout. (See questions 9 and 20).

19. Please provide more details. i.e., bench depth, qty of drawers or shelves (if needed), weight capacity, etc. Any other details? Please see answers from questions 7, 9, 16, 18, and 20.

20. One Work Bench. The work bench will have a mounted 6-inch bench vise as well as a 230 volt 1-phase Cut off saw. A single workbench is preferred, but multiple would work.

Please provide preliminary conceptual layout. (See questions 9 and 18).

21. Is this the same work bench as mentioned above, or a separate work bench? Please provide more details. Same workbench as previously mentioned. (See questions 9, 18, and 20)

22. Will the container require any internal electrical components, i.e. lighting, outlets, etc. If so, please provide the following: N/A; power required to support included equipment only.

30. We had a question about the Hydralic Crimper, we were able to find 2 crimpers that meet the requirements mentioned but they are both made in China:

A. SAMWAY P32D Crimping Machine B. JYC-P32 Hose Crimping Machine

These 2 machines meet all the requirements including the crimping force, set of dies, engine drive, tension, maximum opening and maximum crimping diameter. We wanted to get an understanding is these options can be considered valid even if they are imported from China.

35. do you have size for hose reel stand - (per individual reel) Flexible layout, dimensions, and at vendors discretion: One side wall would be storage bins, back wall would be hose reels, and other side wall would be work bench and crimper. Please provide preliminary conceptual layout. (See questions 4, 17, and 23)

-Hose reels vary in size from -04 to -32. Flexible layout and at vendors discretion:

ability to hold average size hydraulic hoses.

-most differ from psi rating on hose also. Flexible layout and at vendors discretion:
