Specifications for Variant SKU: 3550 Dixon
Shape (Orientation): Straight
Ends Configuration: 1/2in Hose Barb, 3/8in Female NPT
Material(s): Zink-Plated Steel
Features:
  • Female Nipples
  • Rated to 600 PSI working pressure at ambient temperature (70 deg. F)
  • For air and water service only
  • 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 heattreated 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.
