Dry Abrasive-Material Hose Fittings
Use these fittings with sand, steel shot, and other abrasive material. To connect, apply lubrication inside the long end of the fitting, then slide it over rubber hose, twisting until the hose is flush with opening of the fitting. Then use the included fasteners to screw the fitting in place. Fittings have a unique claw-style head that connects to other abrasive-material hose fittings with a quarter twist. They are aluminum, which is lightweight with good corrosion resistance.
Note: Fittings are only for use with abrasive-material hose.
Dry Abrasive-Material Hose
- Temperature Range: -20° to 175° F
- Material: Gum Rubber with Blended Rubber Cover
- Color: Black
This hose is made of tough gum rubber that stands up to sand, steel shot, and other abrasives. The hose and cover materials are conductive to dissipate static buildup. The cover resists abrasion and won’t degrade when exposed to ozone and UV light. It’s also pin pricked to prevent blistering. This hose is also known as sandblast hose.
Dry Abrasive-Material Hose with Claw Couplings for Abrasives
- Temperature Range: -20° to 175° F
- Material: Gum Rubber with Blended Rubber Cover
- Color: Black
Often called sandblast hose, this hose is made of tough gum rubber that stands up to sand, steel shot, and other abrasives. The hose and cover materials are conductive to dissipate static buildup. The couplings have a unique head style that connects only to other abrasive quick-connect couplings. To connect, push the couplings together and twist for a leak-tight seal.
