Hose Individual

Individual air hoses for compressor setups — straight runs, coiled recoil types, and high-visibility options. Covers 5mm to 13mm bore in lengths from 5m to 30m. Most come with 1/4″BSP unions or quick-release couplings fitted. Pick bore and length to match your compressor's CFM and the distance you need to cover.

Bore size dictates flow. An 8mm hose suits most workshop air tools — impact wrenches, blow guns, tyre inflators — up to about 15m without starving the tool. Step up to 10mm if you're running longer distances, higher-flow tools, or multiple drops off the same line. A 5mm coiled hose works for light intermittent use — inflating tyres, quick blow-offs — but chokes anything that needs sustained volume.

Check the union thread before you buy. The majority here use 1/4″BSP, which is standard on UK and Irish compressors. If your compressor or tool has a different thread, you'll need an adapter. High-visibility hose (usually bright orange or yellow) is worth the slight extra cost if the hose crosses a walkway or work area — you won't drive over it or trip on it as easily.

Coiled hose retracts to save floor space but adds resistance compared to a straight run. Fine for occasional use; less so if you need full pressure at the tool end. Straight hose doesn't kink as readily and handles higher flow, but you'll need to coil it manually or mount a reel. All the hoses here are reinforced — braided or spiral — so they hold pressure without ballooning. Sealey lists a working pressure on each; stay under that figure and the hose will outlast most other workshop consumables.

Frequently asked questions

What bore size air hose do I need for workshop air tools?
An 8mm bore air hose suits most workshop air tools — impact wrenches, blow guns, tyre inflators — up to about 15m without restricting flow. Step up to 10mm if you're running longer distances, higher-flow tools, or multiple drops off the same line.
Can I use a coiled air hose for continuous workshop use?
A coiled air hose works for light intermittent use like inflating tyres or quick blow-offs, but it adds resistance compared to a straight run. For sustained use or tools needing full pressure at the end, a straight hose handles higher flow without choking the tool.
What thread size do air hoses with BSP unions use?
The majority of air hoses here use 1/4″BSP unions, which is standard on UK and Irish compressors. Check your compressor and tool thread before buying; if they differ, you'll need an adapter.
Why choose a high-visibility air hose over a standard one?
High-visibility air hose — usually bright orange or yellow — is worth considering if the hose crosses a walkway or work area. You won't drive over it or trip on it as easily as you would with a dark-coloured hose.
What length air hose should I buy for my compressor setup?
Pick the length to match the distance you need to cover — this range runs from 5 m up to 30 m. Bore size matters more than length for flow: an 8 mm hose works up to about 15 m for most tools, but a larger bore prevents pressure drop over longer runs.
Are these air hoses reinforced to handle compressor pressure?
All the air hoses in this category are reinforced — braided or spiral — so they hold pressure without ballooning. Sealey lists a working pressure on each; stay under that figure and the hose will outlast most other workshop consumables.
