Amflo 1/4″ x 12′ Nylon Recoil Hose (4-12)

The Amflo 1/4″ x 12′ Nylon Recoil Hose (4-12) is a practical and efficient solution for connecting your pneumatic tools to an air supply. Designed for home, shop, and light industrial environments, this hose stands out for its self-coiling capability, which allows it to store itself neatly when not in use. Its robust yellow nylon construction ensures oil and chemical resistance, contributing to its longevity and reliability. With a working pressure of 200 PSI and a burst pressure of 800 PSI, it capably handles a wide array of air-powered equipment, from brad nailers and staplers to blow guns and spray guns. The integrated swivel end fittings significantly reduce hose twist, enhancing user comfort and operational efficiency. Furthermore, rugged steel coil bend restrictors are thoughtfully included to protect the hose ends from “pull” damage, thereby extending the overall service life of the hose. The Amflo 4-12 hose provides a convenient and tidy air supply, making it an excellent choice for workstations and workbenches where accessibility and organized storage are important.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Self-Coiling Design: Automatically retracts and stores itself, keeping your workspace organized and free from tangled hoses when the job is done. This enhances safety and reduces clutter.
• Optimal Pressure Capacity: Offers a 200 PSI working pressure and 800 PSI burst pressure, making it suitable for powering various pneumatic tools efficiently and safely.
• Enhanced Durability: Constructed from yellow nylon that resists oil and chemicals, ensuring the hose maintains its integrity and performance over time in demanding environments.
• Reduced Hose Twist: Features 1/4″ MNPT swivel end fittings that rotate freely, preventing kinks and twists in the hose during operation, which improves maneuverability and extends hose life.
• Extended Hose Life: Equipped with rugged steel coil bend restrictors at both ends. These protect the hose from common stress points, minimizing damage from bending and pulling, and prolonging the hose’s usability.

HOW TO USE:

• Inspect the Hose: Before each use, visually inspect the entire hose for any signs of cuts, abrasions, or damage to the fittings.
• Connect to Air Compressor: Attach one of the 1/4″ MNPT swivel fittings of the hose securely to the air outlet of your compressor or air supply line. Ensure the connection is tight to prevent air leaks.
• Connect to Air Tool: Attach the other 1/4″ MNPT swivel fitting to the air inlet of your pneumatic tool (e.g., brad nailer, blow gun). Again, ensure a secure, leak-free connection.
• Pressurize System: Turn on your air compressor and allow it to build up to the desired working pressure for your tool.
• Operate Tool: Use your pneumatic tool as intended. The hose will extend as you move away from the air supply and recoil as you return.
• Depressurize and Disconnect: When finished, turn off the air compressor. Depressurize the air line by either bleeding the air from the compressor tank or by briefly activating the air tool. Once depressurized, disconnect the hose from both the tool and the compressor.
• Store the Hose: Allow the hose to fully recoil. Store it in a clean, dry place, ideally hanging or coiled neatly to maintain its shape and properties.
