20 Metre Flexible Air Hose
With a 20 metre length, the Blubird BB1020 provides plenty of reach around a workshop, garage or agricultural setting without constantly having to move the compressor.
The flexible rubber construction helps the hose remain easy to manoeuvre, while the reinforced design provides the durability required for regular use with compressed air tools, tyre inflators, blow guns and pneumatic workshop equipment.
Strong Polyester Reinforced Construction
The hose incorporates high-strength polyester braided reinforcement, helping prevent excessive elongation and providing additional strength under pressure. The abrasion-resistant outer cover also helps protect the hose when it is dragged across workshop floors and other demanding surfaces.
20 Bar Working Pressure
The Blubird BB1020 is rated for a maximum working pressure of 20 Bar (300 PSI), with a minimum burst pressure of 82 Bar and a 4:1 safety factor.
This makes it suitable for a wide range of compressed-air applications, provided the hose is used within the manufacturer's specified pressure limits.
Flexible in Extreme Temperatures
One of the advantages of the Blubird rubber construction is its wide temperature flexibility. Published specifications indicate a working temperature range of approximately -45°C to +87°C.
This makes the hose particularly suitable for Irish workshops, farms, garages and outdoor applications, where air hoses can be exposed to changing temperatures and weather conditions.
Oil & Diesel Resistant
The rubber construction is designed to resist oil, grease and diesel, making the BB1020 particularly useful in environments such as:
- Agricultural workshops
- Tractor dealerships
- Vehicle garages
- Commercial vehicle workshops
- Plant maintenance
- Fuel and machinery service areas
- Engineering workshops
Bend Restrictors for Added Durability
The Blubird hose features four-finger grip bend restrictors at the hose ends. These help reduce bending stress around the coupling area and help prevent kinking during use.
Ideal Applications
The Blubird BB1020 20m Rubber Air Hose is ideal for:
- Air compressors
- Pneumatic impact wrenches
- Air spray guns
- Tyre inflators
- Pneumatic blow guns
