The Aeroquip FC300 series hose can assembled with a reusable socket and fitting. One of the socket part number(s) is 1210-(hose size). The hose can be cut to length, clean the ID, screw the socket on, and them screw the fitting on.
I used to work for Aeroquip(Eaton now owns Aeroquip). I worked in a proto type department that build special fittings, hose and tube assemblies. One day I would build the fitting and the next day I build a hose assembly that used the fitting I made the day before.
A good hydraulic shop will ask you what the hose assembly will used on before they build a hose assembly and operating pressure.
The group I work for would used a hose and fittings twice the normal operating pressure (example-1000 psi....used a hose and fitting(s) rated for a 2000 psi max pressure) .
