PE PA and PP corrugated hose look the same but quite different from each other
Connecting a sandblast hose to a sandblasting system involves a few steps to ensure a secure and reliable connection. Here is a general guide on how to connect a sandblast hose to the system.
Prepare the Sandblast Hose
Inspect the sandblast hose for any damage or signs of wear. Then trim the hose end to remove any damaged sections and ensure a clean, smooth edge.
Check the Fittings
Identify the type of fittings on both the sandblast hose and the sand blast system. Common fittings include thread, quick-connect coupling and or claw-type coupling.
Attach the Coupling
If using quick-connect or claw-type coupling, connect it as per the instrument. Besides, ensure the coupling is secure and tight.
Thread
If the hose and sand blast system use thread, wrap the male end of the hose with thread seal tape . Because this helps create a tight seal and prevent leak.
Connect the Hose
Align the hose coupling with the fitting on the sand blast system. For quick connect coupling, push it into the system until it locks securely. While for thread, twist the hose onto the system’s fitting in a clockwise direction until it is tight.
Secure
For thread, use an proper wrench or tool to further tighten it. But be careful not to over tighten. Because it may damage the fittings or hose.
Test
After the work, check it to ensure a proper and secure connection. While you can gently tug on the hose to verify that it firmly attaches.
Safety Measures
When connect the sandblast hose, ensure the system is not start and to prevent safety risk. Otherwise there may be serious safety risk.
