The specifications of rubber air hoses are usually expressed in terms of inner diameter and outer diameter. Common inner diameter specifications include 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 13mm, 16mm, etc. 16. Their application differences are as follows:
Gas flow and pressure delivery
Hoses with smaller inner diameters (such as 6mm, 8mm) have relatively small gas flow rates. However, they can increase the gas flow rate to a certain extent, which can meet the needs of some small pneumatic tools with specific requirements for air pressure and flow rate, such as pneumatic screwdrivers, small pneumatic grinders, etc. These tools do not require a large amount of gas supply, but require higher air pressure to achieve rapid rotation or reciprocating motion.
Air Hoses with larger inner diameters (such as 13mm, 16mm and above) can deliver a larger gas flow rate. Therefore, they are suitable for large pneumatic tools with large gas flow requirements. Such as pneumatic breakers, pneumatic wrenches, etc. These tools require a large amount of compressed air to generate strong impact or torque.
6mm hose
Commonly used in some small and precise pneumatic tools, such as micro pneumatic grinding tools in jewelry processing, small pneumatic assembly tools in electronic equipment production, etc. These tools usually have low power and do not require high air flow, but require relatively stable air pressure to ensure the accuracy and stability of operation.
8mm hose
It is widely used in pneumatic nail guns in the woodworking field. It can stably deliver compressed air, ensure the normal operation of the nail gun, and improve work efficiency. In addition, it is also used in some small pneumatic spray guns, which can meet their basic requirements for air pressure and flow to achieve uniform painting.
10mm hose
In addition to some small pneumatic tools that require slightly higher air pressure, it is also suitable for some medium-power pneumatic tools. Such as small pneumatic drilling machines, pneumatic sawing machines, etc. These tools require a larger gas flow than pneumatic nail guns to provide sufficient power. But they do not require a huge flow like large pneumatic tools.
13mm and above inner diameter hose
Mainly used for large pneumatic tools and equipment. Such as pneumatic breakers in construction, large pneumatic clamps in industrial production, and pneumatic hoists in dock loading and unloading. These tools and equipment require a large amount of compressed air to generate powerful force.
