Regardless whether you are looking for an upgrade of your existing polyurethane Tube, rubber Tube, get more out of your pneumatic system, or there is a visual defect. Getting the right Air Hose is essential for stable compressed air pressure and safety of the user.

The Tube is complementing each other with air tools creating versatility for home users and professionalists looking for reliable tubing.

We are proudly introducing our own branded RS PRO 5 m (5,000 mm) long Coil Tube suitable for a temperature range of -40°C up to +150°C to give you full advantage of different environments. Our clear tubing made of fluoropolymer, meaning high resistance to solvents, acids and bases comes with the package.

The tubings withstand pressure up to 16 bar creates a stable airflow, although there is one crucial dependence to be aware of when deciding to cut the Hose.
The general rule is, the longer the air hose, the more pressure irrevocably will be lost. Before a decision is made, the balance between manoeuvrability and minimum pressure loss should be calculated.

Hose, not like the traditional pipe, provides more flexibility to compressed air, water and vacuum operating mediums flow for:

• Pneumatic applications with a high cycle rate


• Spraying paint, a car


• An air drill to make wooden toys


• Air Compressors

How to choose the right Hose for my application?

There are at least four steps to think about before to make a purchase decision.

1. The life expectancy of the Hose - what is your expectation?
2. The internal tubing diameter requirements for your pneumatic application and other air tools types of equipment
3. Make sure the material you pick has the right properties for your applications.
4. To do your job efficiently review whether you need a standard or recoil Hose.
