    steel braid hose?

    maybe this post isnt about steel braid hose, but i dont know what the exact hose im looking for is called....hense this post.

    what is, where to find it...it looks like its rubber coated steel braid hose. it has a semi glossy rubber coating and usually says 3000psi over and over down the length. sort of like the hose you see on a coiled remote...only straight. but it is way thicker than macro line and even looks thick enough that it may be steel braid underneath????

    can anybody help? thanks.

      I got a couple of sets off of ebay a while back. They were called constant air hoses. http://paintballtogo.com/ used to have them for sale on their site, they were who I got mine from on ebay, but now they aren't listed. Good luck finding them, and LMK if you do!

        Look for a place in your area specializing in pneumatic controls and supplies!! You can get your hoses, lines and fitting from them at a fraction of what it would cost you at a paintball store!!

            i know what you mean, it is just steal braided, just coated, now if the coating has any advantage, i don't know, my store only has 1 (about 4 inches) and he got it off another gun sooo, sorry, if you want you could contact them, think they have contact info on their site

                thanks. my local shop can get it...but they take forever. i will try a couple hardware stores tomorrow. i was just hoping somebody knew the exact terminology for this type of hose...it would make web searches easier. thanks anyways.

                  Try grease whip

                  Hi,

                  Most good grease whips are rated for at least 3000 PSI. However they generally come in the sizes of 12 inches and 18 inches. Most of the time, grease whips usually will be a 1/8 NPT fittings on both sides. The color will be black.

                  Later,
                  Alan
