Hydro Hoses for Bags
Hey all,
I am having some trouble with my standard DOT lines and PTC fittings. I am going to try compression but I want another option. I need the hook up on some hydro hoses for my bags. They are 1/2 NPT into the bag. Anyone ever run them and where did you get them from. How much are they and where can i get them. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Matt |

Re: Hydro Hoses for Bags
Don't use the cheap plastic fittings. They are nothing but trouble. I've used all brass fittings with no crappy ass inserts. I have DOT line and brass haven't had a problem with them. Just a suggestion

Re: Hydro Hoses for Bags
The DOT line should be good for 300psi or more. The cheap plastic fittings are good for about 80psi. The fittings I sell get run up to 380psi with no probs and are inexpensive.
It is overkill running Hydro lines but I run Stainless braided lines off my bags in the front or near any heat. At $25USD for 3' Braided hose that takes a flare fitting out of the bag is pretty cheap insurance on the front airlines, they look good too. |

Re: Hydro Hoses for Bags
i have put 500PSI to my set up and didnt have a problem with the plastic D.O.T line or the valves. the bigest prblem i had was trying to get slammed63 to stop humping my tires.....you could run that pressure too if you stop being a baby

Yes it’s true I was humping the tire but it was because I installed one dam good air setup. If I had the money I would have done it to my car and humped my tire. |

Re: Hydro Hoses for Bags
now dont try and take credit for my setup
you help allot and do an OK job but that was all me. your set up may handle 400PSI but your scared to find out. com'on lets but some real pressure in there and see what it does. We'll film it so if it breaks you can post it![]() |
