Hoses Buying Guide
Finding the right hose for your shop, garage, or service truck is about more than just length and diameter. Industrial hoses are designed to handle specific fluids and pressures, ensuring safety, efficiency, and long service life. At Zip’s, we carry a wide range of hoses for air, water, oil, and DEF applications, available in lengths from 20 feet to 100 feet and in multiple diameters to suit your setup.
Why choose the right hose for your equipment
A reliable hose is essential for productivity. Whether you’re running pneumatic tools with a flexible air hose, transferring liquids with a low pressure hose, or managing fuel and DEF lines with heavy duty hoses, choosing the right construction and pressure rating ensures long-term performance. Polyurethane and reinforced hoses provide kink resistance and durability, while recoil hose options make storage and mobility simple.

Hose selection guide
When shopping for hoses, consider these key factors:
- Hose type — match the hose to your fluid: air, water, oil, or DEF.
- Pressure rating — high pressure hoses are required for compressors and industrial systems, while low pressure hoses suit general transfer tasks.
- Material — polyurethane hoses are lightweight and flexible, while reinforced and heavy duty hoses handle rugged, high-demand jobs.
- Length and diameter — choose lengths from 20’ to 100’ and diameters like 3/8” or 1/2” based on tool requirements and reach.
- Storage and accessories — pair your hose with a compatible hose reel for safety, organization, and extended hose life.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a high pressure hose and a low pressure hose?
High pressure hoses are designed for air compressors and industrial equipment, while low pressure hoses are typically used for water transfer, oil, or DEF lines where operating pressure is lower.
How do I know what diameter hose I need?
Most pneumatic tools and shop equipment specify a recommended hose size. A 3/8” air hose is common for general use, while 1/2” hoses are better for high-demand tools that require more airflow.
Are polyurethane air hoses better than rubber hoses?
Polyurethane hoses are lighter, more flexible in cold temperatures, and resistant to kinking. Rubber hoses are heavier but extremely durable and abrasion resistant. The right choice depends on mobility needs and working conditions.
Can I use one hose for multiple fluids?
Not all hoses are compatible with every fluid. Always check manufacturer ratings — for example, a hose designed for air and water should not be used for oil or fuel unless specifically rated.
