Air hose and hose reels for shop air drops, service trucks and assembly lines. This subcategory covers rubber, PVC, hybrid polymer and polyurethane air hose, coiled recoil hose, hose assemblies with fittings already attached, lead-in whips, and open and enclosed hose reels in spring-driven and hand-crank styles. Common inside diameters are 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 in., in lengths for a single workstation or a full bay.

What to check before you order

  • Inside diameter and length. Larger ID and shorter length deliver more air to the tool. A 3/8 in. hose is common for most hand tools. High-demand tools may need 1/2 in.
  • Hose material. Rubber stays flexible in cold weather and resists abrasion. PVC is lighter. Hybrid hose combines low weight with good cold flexibility. Polyurethane is light and suits tight work areas.
  • Working pressure. Pick hose rated above your system's maximum pressure.
  • Reel capacity and mounting. A reel lists the hose ID and length it holds. Check the mounting surface and swing bracket options before you order.

Couplers and plugs for each hose end are in air fittings and couplers, and water or utility hose is in hose and clamps. See the full range in hydraulics and pneumatics.

Common questions

What size air hose do I need?

For most 1/4 in. inlet hand tools, 3/8 in. ID hose works well. Use 1/2 in. ID for long runs or high air use tools, and check the tool's CFM rating.
