The Importance of Whip Hose
The constant vibration created by air tools, like air drills and pavement breakers, is destructive to air hose
couplings, especially the quick-acting type. To provide protection against coupling breakage and related hazards,
Dixon recommends the use of a whip hose. To construct a whip hose, connect one end of a short (3' to 10')air hose
to the air tool using a 3500 type steel nipple. Connect the other end of the hose to the air supply using the standard
quick-acting coupling. The heat-treated 3500 nipple will withstand vibration far better than the standard coupling and
provide a safer connection. The whip hose should remain permanently connected to the tool.
