Need Advice on an EXTRA LONG 4500psi fill hose please

[AriPerklov]

Hey All,

Can anyone point me in a direction as to where can I get a not too expensive, yet RELIABLE, 4500psi rated, that is at least 36'' or longer fill hose? (I believe I can find the right foster fittings for each end my self online, just need a reliable hose that wont burst at 3625psi /250 BAR/480cc CF bottle in my gun). The one that came with my 12V portable compressor is only 24'' (standard?) which is kinda short and inconvenient.

I saw Air Venturi's offer a just the fill hose for sale but it's only 24'' long, also saw a bunch of different ones on Amaz0n just not sure what to go with and if they can be trusted. Any suggestions?

Thanks a bunch!

Contact Joe Brancato at Air Tanks for Sale he shows a 40" micro bore hose on his web site

I bought this 6 foot whip on Amazon, it was $26. But like it says it is unavailable right now but they do have some more ones for around the same price. I bought it in August and it has worked fine for me just attaching it to the stock whip on my air Venturi nomad.

You can buy some that whip on eBay for under $25.00 us stock. I have one its good. I'm going to buy another one

AoA has a 60 inch no kink 6000 P.S.I. hose for $60.00.

I jrecently bought a $29 dollar micro hose for my AV 74cu tank that got kinked at the end. The replacement I bought from a well know vendor had a female and male end, not like the F/F original. I did not want multiple connectors to piece it together, so they did send me the correct one, as their ad was a bit misleading.

If I'd do it again I'd order the 40" no kink F/F hose from AOA for $60. The longer the hose the more wasted air you have for every fill. But if you have a compressor this is not a big deal.

Thanks guys! the AOA route is an option for sure, however with the $20 shipping added Ill be looking at $80+ which is a bit more than I wanted to spend if I dont "have to"..

Will give JB a call see what he's asking...I also saw that metal braided whip on Amaz0n/ebay and might pull the trigger on that one. Thanks!

Airhog.com has 5’ microbore hoses that are wrapped with a blue protective polyurethane armor sheath that will never kink on you. You can order it with DIN connection on one end and female QD on the other, or male and female QD ends. 
they also have a tank kit, which comes with an 88 cu foot tank, aluminum tank stands, nylon web carry system, and that five foot armor hose for $750. Compared to other tanks that cost in that price range, you get more bang for your buck. The gage for the tank is larger than industry standard, has a protective rubber boot on the gage, and the gage has fittings to attach to the tank that tilts the gage back for easy viewing.

You can also buy their carry system and tank stands separately as a kit for $65. 

like Airtanksplus.com, all AirHog products are of top quality. My advice when it comes to fill equipment is equal to the purchase of a pcp- buy the best that you can afford, as if your fill system fails, your shooting fun comes to a big halt, and that’s assuming you didn’t injure yourself in the failure.

I have the AoA no kink hose. It's expensive but I like the flexibility and it's still like new after 3+ years of use. I put an extended foster fitting on it for my impact.

You make a valid poit my friend. Thanks for the insight.

One can always get a double Male foster fitting & connect 2 or more hoses together. About $7 per fitting or less. Easy Peasy!

i second Best fittings you can buy any size hose you want up to 8 feet i think ,i have 2 ,had zero issues for the last 3 years

 

[bigHUN]

Best Fittings, buy a standard microbore tube (5 mm OD) and you can combine whatever fittings you like on each end.

Flexing well, when I am done tethering I coil it and place it in the tank bag pocket.
