If you are tired of wearing out and replacing expensive heavy duty yellow air hoses, Gorilla hose could be your solution. Gorilla is a premium, hi-visibility yellow multi-purpose hose used in factories, construction, agriculture, quarries, mines, railroads, oil/gas industry, and ship building. Its exceptionally tough, MSHA approved cover will resist heavy amounts of oil and abrasion, while its tube resists heat, excessive petroleum based oil as well as vegetable oil and mineral oil (typically breaks down more economical rubbers). Due to its textile reinforcement, Gorilla is 30-40% lighter in weight as compared to heavy duty, steel wire reinforced yellow air hoses. This hose will last much longer than traditional textile braided air hoses and will handle much more rugged conditions. Gorilla was designed to reduce handling costs, inventory costs, replacement costs, down time, and safety concerns. NOTE: Multi-Purpose Hoses ARE NOT INTENDED for critical applications or permanent mechanical installations, such as interior plumbing applications, heat pump connectors, natural gas, critical fluids, etc.

Construction: Tube: Smooth, black Chemigum (RMA Class A). Cover: Smooth, yellow Carbryn rubber blend (MSHA approved, RMA Class A). Reinforcement: Lightweight, high quality Flexten Cord with a 4:1 safety factor.

Typical Fittings: 1/2-1" Universals (NOT 1-1/4-2" 4-lugs, refer to coupling warnings), Double Lock/Twist Lock, N176 Hex Nipples, N315/320 Long Shanks (water only), 1/2"-1" Hose Punch Clamps/Crimp Sleeves, Ground Joint Interlocking Bolt Clamp Couplings (re-tighten before each use due to the cold flow/setting of rubber hoses). Crimp sleeves not recommended on 1-1/4"-4" HD air due to thick wall & temperatures - use interlocking bolt clamps. Whipcheck Safety Cables or hose halters are mandatory on HD air hoses.
