Product Features

• • The constant vibration created by air tools, like air drills and pavement breakers, is destructive to air hose couplings, especially the quick-acting type
  • To provide protection against coupling breakage and related hazards, Dixon® recommends the use of a whip hose
  • To construct a whip hose, connect one end of a short (3 to 10 ft ) air hose to the air tool using a 3500 type steel nipple
  • Connect the other end of the hose to the air supply using the standard quick-acting coupling
  • The heat treated 3500 nipple will withstand vibration far better than the standard coupling and provide a safer connection
  • The whip hose should remain permanently connected to the tool
  • For air and water service only
  • Do not use in connection with drinking water
  • Wash hands after handling
