Product Information
Full details
This SGS 6mm, 10m air compressor hose is designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts working with air tools. Its key benefit is the convenient Euro type quick-release connectors and durable construction, making air tool connections simple and reliable in demanding environments. A potential caveat is its 6mm diameter, which may be restrictive for very high-flow air tools requiring larger hoses.

FAQs
What type of connector does this hose use?
This hose features Euro type quick-release connectors, designed for quick and secure attachment to compatible air compressors and tools.
What is the maximum pressure this hose can handle?
While specific pressure ratings should be confirmed with the manufacturer's detailed specifications, this hose is designed for standard workshop air compressor use. Always ensure it matches your compressor's output and tool requirements.
Can I use this hose with high-demand tools like grinders?
The 6mm diameter is suitable for many common air tools. For very high-demand tools that require significant airflow, a hose with a larger inner diameter might be more appropriate to prevent restriction.
How do I clean the hose?
Clean the exterior of the hose with a damp cloth. Avoid using strong chemicals or solvents, as they can damage the rubber material.
What is the warranty period for this hose?
Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer or manufacturer. Please refer to your purchase documentation or the SGS product page for specific warranty details.
Will this hose work with my existing compressor fittings?
This hose uses Euro type quick-release connectors. If your compressor has Euro type fittings, it will be compatible. If your compressor uses a different standard (e.g., industrial, Nitto), you may need an adapter.
Troubleshooting
Hose leaks air at the connector
Ensure the Euro quick-release connector is fully inserted and locked. Check the O-ring or seal on the connector for damage and replace if necessary. Verify the connector on the compressor or tool is clean and undamaged.
Airflow seems restricted
Check for kinks or bends in the hose that might be obstructing airflow. Ensure the hose diameter (6mm) is suitable for the air tool's requirements. Inspect both ends of the hose for any blockages.
Hose exterior is showing signs of damage
Inspect the hose for deep cuts or severe abrasion. Minor scuffs are normal, but significant damage may compromise the hose's integrity and require replacement for safety.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To set up the SGS Air Compressor Hose, ensure your air compressor outlet and the air tools you intend to use are equipped with compatible Euro type quick-release couplings. Connect one end of the hose to the compressor's air outlet and the other end to your air tool. Ensure the connections are secure by listening for any air leaks.
Compatibility: This hose is designed to work with air compressors that provide standard Euro type fittings. Always check the pressure rating of the hose against your compressor's output and the requirements of your air tools to ensure safe operation.
Care: After each use, disconnect the hose from both the compressor and the tool. Store the hose loosely coiled in a dry area, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to prolong its lifespan. Periodically inspect the hose and connectors for any signs of wear, cracks, or damage. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth if necessary; avoid using harsh solvents that could degrade the rubber.
