Description
Air Compressors UK — Professional Grade
10m Reinforced Compressed Air Hose
10mm (3/8") Internal Bore · 17mm OD · Heavy-Duty Reinforced PVC
Overview
Built for Professionals. Engineered for Pressure.
The 10m Reinforced Compressed Air Hose is a workshop-grade pneumatic air line engineered for continuous, high-demand use across garages, engineering workshops, manufacturing facilities and industrial maintenance environments. Constructed from heavy-duty reinforced PVC with an integrated textile reinforcement layer, it delivers exceptional flexibility without compromising structural integrity under pressure.
The 10mm (3/8") internal bore is the industry-standard diameter for most workshop compressors and pneumatic tools — wide enough to maintain efficient airflow and minimise pressure drop across the full 10-metre run. The smooth bore interior reduces turbulence, ensuring your tools receive consistent, clean air delivery at the point of use.
Supplied as a 10 metre continuous coil, this hose can be cut to any custom length to suit fixed installations or portable rigs. Fittings are sold separately, giving you full flexibility to terminate with your preferred connector standard — BSP, NPT or push-fit.
Key Features
What Sets This Hose Apart
Textile-Reinforced PVC
Multi-layer construction resists kinking, abrasion and UV degradation in demanding workshop conditions.
300 PSI Working Pressure
Rated to 21 Bar (300 PSI) working pressure with a 3:1 safety factor burst rating of 63 Bar (900 PSI).
10mm (3/8") Bore
Industry-standard bore diameter compatible with the vast majority of workshop compressors and pneumatic tools.
Wide Temperature Range
Operates reliably from -15°C to +60°C — suitable for unheated workshops in winter and warm industrial environments.
Flexible & Lightweight
Remains supple and easy to handle even in cold conditions — no stiff coiling or memory effect after storage.
Cut-to-Length
Supplied as a continuous 10m coil — cut to any custom length for bespoke fixed installations or portable rigs.

Expert Guidance
Why 10mm (3/8") Bore Is the Right Choice
The 10mm (3/8") internal diameter is the most widely used bore size in UK workshops and is compatible with the majority of compressor outlets and pneumatic tool inlets. It strikes the optimal balance between airflow volume and hose flexibility — larger than 8mm (1/4") for reduced pressure drop, yet more manageable than 13mm (1/2") for everyday portable use.
At 10 metres, this coil provides sufficient reach for most workshop bays without the excess weight and bulk of a 15m or 20m hose. For longer runs or multi-drop systems, additional lengths can be joined using standard hose tail fittings and couplings.
Note: This hose is supplied without end fittings. To complete your installation, pair with our BSP hose tails and quick-release couplings — available separately in our pneumatic fittings range.
FAQ
Common Questions
What fittings do I need for this hose?
This hose is supplied without end fittings. You will need hose tail fittings sized for 10mm (3/8") bore — typically 3/8" BSP or 1/4" BSP depending on your compressor and tool connections. Secure with appropriately sized hose clips or crimp ferrules.
Can this hose be used with oil-lubricated compressors?
Yes. Reinforced PVC air hose is compatible with both oil-free and oil-lubricated compressors. Ensure your air line filter/regulator/lubricator (FRL) unit is correctly set up to prevent excess oil mist reaching sensitive tools or spray equipment.
Can I cut this hose to a shorter length?
Yes — the hose is supplied as a continuous 10m coil and can be cut cleanly with a sharp hose cutter or hacksaw. Fit hose tail fittings to each cut end and secure with hose clips or crimp ferrules rated for the working pressure.
Is this hose suitable for outdoor use?
Yes. The abrasion-resistant outer jacket and wide operating temperature range (-15°C to +60°C) make this hose suitable for outdoor and unheated environments. Avoid prolonged direct UV exposure over many years, which can cause surface crazing on PVC over time.
