Hey guys, my old fill hose busted after a year. I purchase one on ebay rated for 4500 psi. I used it to fill my gun and the rubber outer bubble up and pop. It sounded like a gun shot. I think these are paintball hose rated for 1100 psi? Cause they look just like the paintball hose. It doesnt have to metal coils around the hose like my old hose. I know some seller selling paintball fill hose and list as 4500 psi without knowing the danger of using a paintball hose to fill a 4500 psi tank. Anyone can give me a link to some real 4500 psi fill hose?
Where to purchase 4500 psi fill hose.
- Thread starter Airmanator
- Start date
The last ones I bought were from Trenier, and are the real deal (4,500 psi).

Hmm the price difference. Make me think a $7.99 is actually rated for 4500 psi. Do trenier have free shipping or how much is shipping.

I would say buy the best quality you can swing. It seems that quite a while back I read at least 2 specific reports of hoses breaking. In one the hose to foster fitting connection failed where the female foster attaches to the hose and in the other the female foster failed internally. If I recall what I read correctly, the first whipped around for a while till user managed to close the valve and in the second it blew parts of the metal collar and some of the ball bearings into a nearby wall.

You are going to want to spend more than $8 for the hose to get quality. Buy the huma air one from Trenier. That 1000mm one (about 40 inches) is a good deal for 30 bucks.

There is also Airtanksforsale in California. Quality stuff, don’t mess with cheap hoses. They are a sponsor here too.

Mirobore hoses are the only way to go. Here is a 30 inch Made In the USA Ninja unit that should werq for you.

RIGHT ON BITEFFT!! JOE DOESN'T SELL ANYTHING THAT IS NOT RATED FOR HIGHER PRESSURE THEN 4500PSI. AIRMANATOR I'M EXTREMELY HAPPY YOU WERE NOT INJURED. GUYS PLEASE DO NOT USE THE " INEXPENSIVE STUFF AND THE CHINESE HAVE FIGURED OUT RATING THEIR STUFF AT 4500 & 5000 AND THAT CHARGING MORE MONEY GETS PEOPLE TO BUY IT. BUY FROM A RELIABLE DEALER. I ALWAYS USE JOE BRANCATO. YES IT COSTS MORE AND IT WILL OUTLAST THE OTHERS . MOST OF ALL YOU DON'T HAVE TO COUNT ON LUCK NOT TO END UP HURT IN WAYS THAT ARE PERMANENT. JUST LIKE AIRGUNS, BUY PROVEN NAME BRANDS FROM RELIABLE DEALERS ( WHO HAVE PROVEN THEY MAKE GOOD ON NEEDED REPAIRS AND WARRANTIES). A FEW "GOOD GUYS "HAVE SHARED THEIR INJURIES WITH THE FORUM TO WARN OTHERS HOW DANGEROUS HIGH PRESSURE AIR IS. YOU CAN GET AN AIR BUBBLE INTO YOUR VEINS WITH A 150 PSI SHOP AIR COMPRESSOR. MAKE A GUESS WHAT 2500+ WILL DO FOR YOU. IT'S ALL SAFE IF YOU OPERATE WITH SAFE EQUIPMENT AND SAFE PROCEDURES. ESPECIALLY HOOKING AND UNHOOKING AIR LINES, GUNS, & TANKS. PLEASE, I'VE APPLIED 1ST AID IN THE SERVICE TO PEOPLE WHO GOT DISTRACTED AND HURT. THEIR ACCIDENT ONLY COST ME SOME OF MY HEARING. IT COST THEM A LOT MORE. 1ST BE SAFE, 2ND ENJOY YOUR SHOOTING.

I would suggest never buying something only rated up to 4500 psi. Find a quality hose rated above your filling limit like the one at Trenier.

IF you have a shop near you the 2mm "Nitrogen Test" line which is used everyday in dive shops is actually rather inexpensive. Naturally you don't want to DIY the stuff but fun to know what things actually cost.
Seems odd Ninja would use 4,500 psi rated line but it is a paintball company still trying to learn pcp airguns. (Flex reg seems nice tho).
Seems Trenier is out of the AV lines as is AV.
