50-Foot 1/2" ID Rubber Air Hose
This 50-foot rubber hose delivers compressed air or water to pneumatic tools in workshops and garages. The 1/2-inch internal diameter maintains flow for demanding applications. Pre-attached brass fittings with 3/8-inch NPT male threads connect directly to tools, adapters or existing hose reels. It serves as a standalone line or a direct replacement for specific reel models.
Working Pressure and Fitting Limits
Rated for up to 300 PSI working pressure, the hose handles normal shop supply without rupture. The fiber-reinforced rubber construction resists kinking and withstands abrasion on concrete floors. Brass fittings use 3/8-inch NPT threads, so connections must match this thread standard. The 50-foot length adds friction loss that reduces pressure at the tool end.
Compatibility Checks Before Ordering
Verify that your air supply and tools accept 3/8-inch NPT connections or have suitable adapters. Confirm the 300 PSI rating exceeds your compressor's maximum output pressure. If replacing a hose on a reel, ensure the reel is a STEELMAN 96840 or 96840-IND model for proper fit. Check local regulations regarding the Proposition 65 chemicals identified by the manufacturer.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 50-foot length or a shorter hose for my STEELMAN reel?
This 50-foot hose is designed as a direct replacement for the STEELMAN 96840 and 96840-IND reels; choose this length if you need the full reach those reels provide.
What does the 300 PSI rating mean for daily shop use?
The 300 PSI working pressure handles standard shop air lines and water delivery without rupturing, even at typical compressor cut-out pressures.
Will the 1/2-inch NPT brass fittings connect to my existing 3/8-inch couplers?
The hose ends have 3/8-inch NPT male threads, so they thread directly into common 3/8-inch female couplers and adapters.
