Product catalog summary
Overview: Elcometer offers a range of flexible, anti-static, and lightweight blast hoses designed for ease of use and durability. These hoses are available with working pressures of 12 or 15 bar, providing a safety margin of three times the working pressure.
Whip Hose: A whip hose is a lighter, more flexible hose used between the nozzle and the standard blast hose to reduce weight and improve maneuverability. The whip hose size is typically one size down from the main hose diameter.
Whip Hose Selection Guide: The guide provides nozzle sizes, CFM usage at 100 psi, and corresponding extension and whip hose internal diameters. For example, a nozzle size of 6mm uses 103 CFM at 100 psi, requiring a 25mm extension hose and a 19mm whip hose.
Hose Construction: Elcometer blast hoses feature an abrasion-resistant inner wall made from a natural and styrene-butadiene rubber compound with carbon black, meeting DIN53516 standards. The outer cover is tough and weather-resistant, and the hose includes a 2-ply braid reinforcement for strength and flexibility.
Technical Specifications: The document lists various hose extensions with specifications such as internal diameter, outside diameter, minimum bend radius, and maximum working pressure. For instance, a 1/2" ID blast hose extension has a max working pressure of 12 bar, an OD of 28mm, and a min bend radius of 105mm.
Part Numbers and Couplings: Each hose extension is available in different lengths and coupling materials (nylon or cast iron), with specific part numbers for easy identification. For example, the BH13SB-10 is a 10m hose with a cast iron coupling.
High-Pressure Options: High-pressure hose extensions are available with a working pressure of 15 bar, offering similar specifications but with enhanced pressure handling capabilities.

blasting equipment-1

blasting equipment Flexible, anti-static, light weight and incredibly tough, Elcometer’s range of 2 ply blast hose is available with a working pressure of either 12 or 15bar (174 or 217psi) with a 3 times safety margin. 1 1 Tough Outer Cover Manufactured using abrasion resistant and anti-static natural & styrene-butadiene rubber with a cloth impression, the tough weather resistant cover prolongs the life of the hose. Elcometer’s blast hose features highly woven cord linings in a 2 ply cross pattern to improve hose strength and allow flexibility. 3 Anti-Static & Abrasion Resistant Inner Wall Elcometer blast hose is abrasion resistant and manufactured out of natural & styrene-butadiene rubber compound with carbon black, in accordance with DIN53516 and has an anti-static rating (R) of less than 106sq/m (48.8sq/ft) to protect the user from static build up. The internal diameter of the blast should ideally be 3 to 4 times the size of the nozzle orifice. What is Whip Hose? Operators may find that using a standard blast hose is too heavy to work with all day and difficult to move. To combat this, a short length of lighter weight, more flexible blast hose can be fitted in between the nozzle and the standard blast hose – this is called a ‘whip hose’. Consult the table below to choose the size of your whip hose in relation to the size of you main blast hose - in most circumstances this is one size down from your hose diameter.
