Contractor’s Choice Red Rubber Air Hose
Pneumatic tools are a very popular alternative to electric-powered tools as the former have a better power-to-weight ratio. Serious do-it-yourselfers, lately, have been switching to air-powered tools. This means they also need to purchase air compressors and air hoses.
Air hoses could be made of polyurethane or rubber and each has its own advantages and disadvantages. The choice between the two boils down to the particular needs and preferences of the user. If you opt for a rubber hose, the Contractor’s Choice Red Rubber Hose is a fine example.
The Contractor’s Choice hose is designed to withstand air pressures of up to 300 psi. While it is intended primarily as an air hose, it can also handle water even up to temperature levels of 200°F.
Being made of rubber, it is quite flexible and feels soft to touch. In spite of this flexibility and softness, it is also tough, durable, and is able to endure the harsh conditions of a garage or a construction site. It resists abrasions, kinks, and is not affected with exposure to fuels and oils making it a long-lasting piece of equipment.
Crimped-on hose fittings that are crush-proof are included at the hose’s ends.
The Contractor’s Choice Red Rubber Air Hose is available in three different diameters –1/4, 3/8, and 1/2. All diameters come in 25′, 50′, or 100′ lengths.
