BLUE Intake Hose for Ashbys Stainless Steel Hand Tool Range (Fitted with 1 × Large and 1 × Small Swaged Male Hose Tail)
This high‑quality BLUE intake hose is designed specifically for the Ashbys Stainless Steel Hand Tool Range. It is supplied pre‑fitted with 1 × large and 1 × small swaged male hose tail, giving you a secure, reliable connection between your hand tool water connector and valve assembly.
Large Hose Tail – Connects to the Hand Tool Water Connector
The large swaged male hose tail connects directly into the water connector fitted on your stainless steel hand tool. Most Ashbys hand tools use a male connector: Ashbys Brass Male Water Connector.
Some setups use a female connector instead: Ashbys Brass Female Water Connector.
For a secure, leak‑free seal, PTFE tape must be used when fitting the hose tail into either connector.
Small Hose Tail – Connects to the Hand Tool Valve
The small swaged male hose tail fits directly into the valve input on your stainless steel hand tool. This is the correct replacement valve for these tools: High Pressure Brass Valve & Trigger Complete.
400 psi Aluminium Valve with Trigger is recommended for machines running pump pressures up to 350 psi, making it ideal for 135 psi machines and the 250 psi Ashbys Sensei.
