Product Overview The Premium Extra Long Safety Cable Hose is designed to enhance safety in environments where hose connections are critical. Constructed with durable steel cables and plated springs, this safety cable ensures that hose ends remain secure, preventing dangerous 'whipping' in the event of a coupling failure. Features 1/4" cable suitable for hoses with nominal bore sizes of 6" or 8". Extra long springs allow for easy fitting over large couplings, including Bauer type couplings. Available in 1/8" (3.2mm) and 1/4" (6.35mm) cable diameters. Constructed with galvanized steel wire, plated springs, and aluminium ferrules for maximum durability. Alternative materials available, including stainless steel and copper ferrules for specific applications. Hi-Viz options available, featuring a PVC coating for enhanced visibility. Custom versions can be made to customer specifications for large orders. Applications Whipcheck Safety Cables are essential for use with air compressor hoses, providing additional security in enclosed or critical environments. The cables are especially useful at the junction between two hose assemblies or between a hose and a tool, where the risk of failure is heightened due to heat and pressure. Installation Instructions Proper fitting of the Premium Safety Cable is crucial for optimal performance. Ensure that the loop ends are positioned as far down the hose as possible. For the Hose to Hose configuration, the ferrule should align with the joint between the two hoses to ensure effective function.
