Continental Contitech 20012594 Air Hose 3/8 in 250 Psi

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20012594 is a multipurpose PVC air hose sold in cut-to-length increments from a bulk coil. With a 3/8 inch inside diameter and a 250 psi working pressure rating, this hose handles compressed air service in shop, field, and light industrial environments. The red PVC construction keeps the hose visible on busy job sites and resists abrasion under regular use. Rated for temperatures from -10 degrees F to 158 degrees F, it performs through seasonal temperature swings common in outdoor and unheated indoor settings. HVAC techs, plumbers, electricians, and general contractors reach for this hose when they need reliable, flexible air delivery without the bulk of a rubber hose.

This hose is sold by the foot in 1-foot increments with a 25-foot minimum cut length. The full coil contains 750 feet of usable stock, making it practical for supply houses and contractors who need custom run lengths rather than fixed assemblies. Typical applications include shop air lines, pneumatic tool feeds, blow-off lines, and general compressed air distribution in residential and light commercial job sites. No end connections are included; fittings are field-supplied and installed to match the application.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, pipefitters, or general maintenance trades familiar with compressed air systems. Depressurize the supply line completely before cutting, fitting, or replacing any section of air hose. Secure all field-installed fittings to the manufacturer specifications for the fitting type used. Follow applicable OSHA and local codes governing compressed air line installations, including proper hose routing and restraint to prevent whip hazard.
