Size Name:1/4 inches The Amflo 512-25E red rubber air hose has a 1/4" ID and is 25 ft. long. Its rubber construction provides resistance to abrasion and allows the hose to remain flexible at temperatures ranging from -20 to +165 degrees F. Its polyester yarn reinforcement provides the strength necessary to reach and maintain its maximum pressure rating of 300 pounds per square inch (psi), and it comes equipped with two 1/4" factory-installed brass male National Pipe Thread Taper (NPT) fittings. This hose is suitable for a wide range of commercial and industrial pneumatic applications.Industrial hoses transfer or convey air or liquid in hose systems. When selecting industrial hoses, use the STAMPED method: S = Size (ID, OD, and length) T = Temperature (maximum and minimum temperatures of material being transported) A = Application (industry or process) M = Material (to be conveyed, type and concentration) P = Pressure (maximum working pressure) E = Ends (type of end connectors or couplings on hose) D = Delivery method (volume and velocity)The inside diameter of the hose must be adequate to keep pressure loss to a minimum and avoid damage to the hose due to heat generation or excessive turbulence. The hose must be capable of withstanding the minimum and maximum temperatures that occur within the hose system. Some applications require specialized oils or chemicals to be conveyed through the system. In this case, hose selection must ensure compatibility of the hose tube, cover, couplings and O-rings with the fluid used. Industrial hoses are used in systems such as air compressors, automatic manufacturing operations, aircraft controls, and tire installation in industries including agriculture, mining, road construction, firefighting, and aviation.Plews & Edelmann manufactures automotive and pneumatic hose, lines, reels, accessories, fittings, and lubricants under the Edelmann, Amflo, Omega, LubriMatic, and UltraLube brands. The company, founded in 1909, is headquartered in Dixon, IL.

a favorite
I first ordered this hose, this length March 2016 and used it daily for a year and an half; it was my favorite of the three hoses I use regularly for being the most kink free; however, it developed too many cracks so I replaced it with a new hose that cost more but promised to be kink-free (it wasn't); I purchased another Amflo and though others will last longer none I've used are as flexible or as kink-free. This matter for me since I do a lot of finish work using 2 to 3 guns simultaneously.

Good hose
I purchased this hope to replace the plastic yellow retractable hoses i was using. They cracked and broke because of the cold in the garage. I liked the idea they would retract but breaking is out of the question. Mine broke while using it and the end hit me in the side of the face but did not do any damage. I was very very lucky it did not hit me in the eye glasses and shatter into my eye. I learned a lesson and will never use the yellow coiled hoses again. This hose is a little more work to coil up and hand up on the wall but the rubber is good and the hose still is very flexible in the cold. But the bottom line is it is much safer. The price was right and I would recommend this as a replacement to anyone, Good quality hose.

Good at first
Pretty good air hose. Had it in a hose reel. I've only had it for about 2 years and it has different areas where it's starting to separate and fall apart. Mainly around the connection areas. Kinda disappointed in the life span of the hose for I've owned several different kinds over the years and this one seemed to start falling apart the quickest with the same amount of usage.

Very flexible and looks to be good quality. I've only used it once but I'm sure it will last me for a long time. I like the red color because it is easier to find than black if I don't put it away like I should after each use.

Great value hose for the price
I've used this product for a few months now and it works out great. A hundred times better than the hose that originally came with my air compressor. It's easy to coil up, and looks like it should last a long time. I've had no issues with leaks from the hose or the fittings. A good value for the price.

I love this hose
After using this hose, I almost through my old blue plastic hose away. I no longer have the twisted, knotted mess that always seem to go with using my blue one. I love this hose, it's made a great addition to my shop. Thanks again, Bill T.

Works, however is bubbling out near both ends of the hose where it attaches to brass fittings. I zip tied the bubbled areas to reinforce, however this cord needs some strain relief.
