How to Repair PVC Air Hose?

PVC air hose can crack or puncture for a variety of reasons, and they oftentimes break in very inconvenient spots. The risk of injury or fatality when dealing with compressed air equipment adds to the problem. If you have the right parts and tools for the job, you can make your air hose work as good as new in just a few minutes.

Things you’ll need:

• PVC air hose connector
• PVC air hose clamps
• Phillips screwdriver
• Utility knife
• Leather gloves

Near The PVC Air Hose Fittings

• Shut off the air supply by disconnecting the PVC air hose or turning the valve to the “off” position.
• Loosen the PVC air hose fitting clamp with a screwdriver. Gently twist and pull both the fitting and the clamp off of the PVC air hose and set them aside.
• Cut the PVC air hose about an inch below the break or puncture with a utility knife. Hold the hose down against a hard, flat surface with one hand, and use a sawing motion with your cutting hand. Discard what you cut off.
• Put the clamp back on to the PVC air hose, followed by the fitting. Push the fitting in and tighten the clamp back down about a half-inch from the end of the hose.

Repairing Breaks Toward The Middle

• Shut off the air supply by disconnecting the PVC air hose or turning the valve to the “off” position.
• Use a utility knife to cut the PVC air hose about an inch from both sides of the break or puncture. Hold the hose down on a hard, flat surface and use a sawing motion. Discard the broken PVC air hose piece.
• Slip a clamp on to each of your PVC air hose where you just made your cuts.
• Connect the two air hoses using a PVC air hose connector piece. Slide both hoses evenly onto the connector, and push them together until they meet in the middle.
• Move each clamp to about a half-inch from where the two air hoses meet. Tighten them down with a screwdriver.
