air hoses

To get the correct hose you will need to know 2 things – the make / model of instrument the hose is to fit, and the type of supply outlet you have. Outlet connectors cause most fitting issues. Most usual outlet – UK MA7. This will only accept UK MA7 probes. If your hose pushes in, but will not click home, the hose usually has a US Schrader fitting. A common symptom of eBay purchases! Hoses sourced outside the UK & USA are very unlikely to be compatible with UK outlets as each country has its own connectors for safety reasons. Hose outlet connectors are shown with the relevant outlet. Schrader hoses can be as shown but can also have no gutter round the probe. A UK MA7 probe will fit a Schrader socket, but a Schrader probe will NOT fit a UK MA7 outlet without a special adaptor
