Air Hoses

Air hoses, also known as air lines, pneumatic tubing, and air compressor hoses, are flexible tubes made from materials such as PVC, nylon, and polyurethane. They are designed to transport compressed air from one location to another. These hoses are widely used in industrial, commercial, and automotive applications and are essential for powering air tools, pneumatic equipment, and other machinery that requires compressed air.

What Are the Different Types of Air Hoses?

There are many different types of air hoses available in the market, each designed for specific applications. They come in various configurations, including different materials, colours, inside and outside diameters, lengths, and maximum operating pressures. Some hose pipes are also designed for food-grade or low-toxic purposes. The most common types include:

PVC Air Hose

PVC air hoses are lightweight, flexible, and ideal for light-duty applications such as home workshops or DIY projects.

Material: Durable PVC (polyvinyl chloride) with flexibility and abrasion resistance.
Colour: Often blue, but available in various colours.
Diameter: Available in different inside and outside diameters.
Length: Ranges from 5 to 50 metres.
Max Operating Pressure: Up to 300 PSI.
Applications: General-purpose air supply in workshops and industrial settings.

Nylon Air Hose

Nylon air hoses are strong, durable, and resistant to abrasion and chemicals, suitable for automotive and industrial applications.

Material: Nylon, resistant to chemicals and oils.
Colour: Multiple colours for easy identification.
Diameter: Various inside and outside diameters.
Length: From 5 to 30 metres.
Max Operating Pressure: Up to 200 PSI.
Applications: Pneumatic control systems, robotics, and lightweight flexible needs.

Polyurethane Air Hose

Polyurethane air hoses are lightweight, flexible, and resistant to kinks and abrasions, perfect for pneumatic tools and equipment.

Material: Polyurethane, combining flexibility with high tensile strength.
Colour: Bright colours like yellow or red for visibility.
Diameter: Various inside and outside diameters.
Length: From 5 to 50 metres.
Max Operating Pressure: Up to 300 PSI or more.
Applications: High-wear environments, retractable air hose reels, and kink resistance.
