This Unisource 2190 paint spray hose has a Grade B ORS rubber tube and cover for resistance to paint fluids, lacquers and solvents. This Oil Resistant Sheet (ORS) rubber hose has multiple textile spirals for reinforcement to resist expansion and maintaining maximum pressure. It has female National Pipe Straight (NPS) swivel connectors on both ends. The maximum pressure rating is 250 pounds per square inch gauge (psig), and the operating temperature ranges from -40 to +200 degrees F. This spray finishing air hose is compatible with standard spray hose fittings and is suitable for use in finishing, industrial, construction, and agricultural applications.

Industrial hoses transfer or convey air or liquid in hose systems. When selecting industrial hoses, use the STAMPED method to help determine the type of hose needed:

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.
