The Van Line Whip Hose (AL73) is a specialized safety component designed for professional technicians in automotive, agricultural, and engineering sectors who require a robust, flexible connection between air tools and main lines. Its primary benefit is the prevention of dangerous hose whip during accidental disconnection, significantly enhancing workplace safety. Users should note that at 0.6 meters in length, this hose is intended for short-run vibration dampening and connection convenience rather than long-distance air transport.

The hose is designed to act as a safety buffer between an air tool and a hard line, preventing the hose from whipping around if a connection fails under pressure.
Yes, the AL73 conforms to both ISO 4414:1998 and EN983:1996 standards for pneumatic fluid power and safety.
No, this hose is only 0.6 meters (2 ft) long and is intended for use as a lead-in hose, not for extending an air line across a workshop.
The hose is equipped with an R 1/2 male thread tailpiece.
Yes, the 13 mm (1/2 inch) internal diameter provides high air flow, making it suitable for most high-demand pneumatic tools.
Check if the 100 Series coupling is fully seated; clean any dirt or grit from the internal O-ring seal.
Exposure to extreme temperatures or chemicals may have damaged the outer layer; replace the hose if visible cracks or stiffness occur to maintain safety compliance.
Verify that the hose is not kinked and that the internal diameter is not obstructed by debris; ensure the main compressor line is delivering sufficient flow.
To install, connect the R 1/2 male thread tailpiece to your air tool or terminal point and secure the 100 Series coupling to your primary air supply line. Ensure all threaded connections are properly sealed using thread tape if required to prevent pressure drops.
