Continental Contitech 20025498 Oil Resistant Air Hose

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20025498 is an oil resistant rubber air hose sold in cut-to-length increments from a 500-foot coil. It carries a 1/4 inch inside diameter and a 0.531 inch outside diameter, with a maximum working pressure of 300 psi. Rated for service from -20 degrees F to 190 degrees F, it handles the thermal swings common in shop environments and outdoor service work. The red rubber construction resists oil contamination, making it appropriate for compressed air lines in environments where lubricants are present. Licensed contractors and shop technicians working with air-powered tools and pneumatic systems are the primary installers.

This hose is suited for general compressed air distribution in automotive shops, HVAC service fleets, plumbing contractors, and light industrial settings. It ships as a cut-to-length product priced per foot in 1-foot increments. The minimum cut length per order is 25 feet, and the full coil runs 500 feet. No end connections are included; field terminations are applied at installation. The hose is compatible with standard 1/4 inch barb, crimp, and push-lock fittings appropriate for the ID.

Key Features

• Oil resistant rubber construction resists degradation from lubricants and shop fluids
• 300 psi maximum working pressure for compressed air service

Compatibility

Designed as a cut-to-length replacement or new-run hose for compressed air systems requiring a 1/4 inch ID oil resistant rubber hose rated to 300 psi. No end connections are included; fittings must be sourced and applied separately to match the target system.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with pneumatic system assembly and applicable OSHA compressed air safety requirements. Depressurize and lock out the air supply before cutting or terminating the hose. Use only fittings and clamps rated for the hose OD and the system working pressure. Avoid routing the hose near sharp edges, high heat sources, or surfaces that could abrade the outer jacket.
