The other type of hose that is commonly used for air discharges is hydraulic hose. Usually
this is an SAE 100R1 type. Typically, hydraulic hose is not necessary on the air discharge
circuit, because the system air pressure will not exceed 150 psi. Also, the hose and fittings
for hydraulic hose are bulky and expensive.
Air brake hose may also be used, provided the inside diameters are correct:
.375” OD is .250” ID
.500” OD is .375” ID
.625” OD is .500” ID
.750” OD is .625” ID
Air distribution manifold:
We suggest NPT fittings with the appropriate number and size ports. However, the manifold
can be built with air brake tubing if strict attention is paid to the inside diameters:
.375” OD is .250” ID
.500” OD is .375” ID
.625” OD is .500” ID
.750” OD is .625” ID
