Coilhose Pneumatics RP0418S Lead-in Whip Hose 1/4 in

Product Description

The COILHOSE PNEUMATICS RP0418S is a lead-in whip hose designed to connect a compressed air supply line to a tool or downstream hose assembly. Constructed from neoprene, this short-length hose measures 1/4 inch inside diameter and 1.5 inches in length, allowing it to serve as a flexible transition point that absorbs vibration and reduces stress on fittings. It is rated for a working pressure of 200 psi and handles temperatures from -40 degrees F to 212 degrees F. End connections are FNPT on one end and MNPT swivel on the other, making installation and tool changes straightforward without special adapters.

Lead-in whip hoses are commonly used in industrial, automotive, and construction pneumatic systems. This hose is suited for use at the tool end of a compressed air distribution system, providing a short flexible section between a rigid supply line and an air-powered tool such as an impact wrench, grinder, or blowgun. The swivel fitting minimizes hose twist during use, which extends service life in high-cycle applications.

Key Features

• Neoprene construction resists oil, heat, and abrasion in shop environments
• 200 psi working pressure handles standard compressed air system demands
• Temperature range of -40 degrees F to 212 degrees F suits both cold-climate and heated shop use
• MNPT swivel end prevents hose twist and reduces connection wear
• FNPT x MNPT swivel end connections fit standard 1/4 inch pneumatic fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit lead-in whip hose for standard 1/4 inch compressed air tool connections using FNPT x MNPT swivel fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by compressed air system technicians or qualified maintenance personnel. Depressurize the supply line fully before connecting or disconnecting the whip hose. Use thread sealant appropriate for pneumatic fittings and verify connections are snug before restoring system pressure. Do not exceed the rated working pressure of 200 psi.
