Ingersoll Rand 22041479 Double-Banded Universal Air Hose | 1/2" NPT Swivel Male | 8 (ft.) Length

When a pneumatic tool requires freedom of movement at its air inlet, the Ingersoll Rand 22041479 Double-Banded Universal Air Hose provides a convenient connection between the tool and a compatible compressed-air supply. This preassembled hose features a 1/2-inch inside diameter, 8-foot length, and 250 PSI rated pressure. Its distinguishing feature is the 1/2-inch NPT swivel male fitting, which allows rotation at the threaded connection to accommodate changes in hose orientation during tool operation. NPT (National Pipe Taper) identifies the tapered pipe-thread connection commonly used on pneumatic equipment. A universal-style coupling at the opposite end connects to a matching compressed-air fitting.

Unlike fixed straight-male hose assemblies, the swivel male configuration helps reduce the twisting transmitted through the hose when the connected tool changes orientation. The double-banded connections secure the fittings to the hose, providing an assembled air-line accessory suitable for replacement or new equipment installations. Its short 8-foot length provides localized reach near a pneumatic workstation or construction tool without the excess hose associated with longer supply lines. The 1/2-inch bore supports compressed-air delivery to compatible equipment requiring this hose size, while the swivel fitting makes this model particularly relevant where tool positioning and hose routing are important.

Type: Assembled Pneumatic Air Hose | Model: 22041479 | Manufacturer: Ingersoll Rand | Hose I.D.: 1/2" | Hose Length: 8 ft | Rated Pressure: 250 PSI | Connection Type: Universal Coupling to Swivel Male NPT | Thread Size: 1/2" NPT | Fitting Configuration: Swivel Male | Connection Construction: Double-Banded | Service: Compressed Air

Features:

• 1/2-inch NPT swivel male fitting accommodates rotational movement at the threaded connection, helping manage hose twisting as the pneumatic tool changes position.
• 1/2-inch hose inside diameter provides an air passage for compatible pneumatic equipment with matching hose requirements.
• 8-foot assembled length provides localized reach between a compressed-air supply connection and the tool.
• 250 PSI rated pressure establishes the hose assembly's specified pressure limit for compressed-air service.
• Universal-style coupling connects to matching universal air-line fittings used in pneumatic construction and industrial equipment systems.
• Double-banded hose-end construction uses securing bands to retain the installed fittings.
• Swivel male configuration provides an alternative to fixed straight-male connections where hose orientation changes during operation.
• Preassembled universal-to-swivel-male arrangement simplifies replacement of an existing hose with the same connection specifications.

Applications:

• Construction tool connections – supplying compressed air to compatible pneumatic tools that require a 1/2-inch NPT swivel male hose connection.
• Concrete repair and chipping – connecting suitable pneumatic chipping hammers and surface-removal equipment where changes in tool orientation can affect hose positioning.
• Excavation and utility maintenance – providing a short tool-side air connection for compatible pneumatic digging and construction equipment.
• Industrial maintenance and MRO – replacing hose assemblies where a universal coupling and swivel male threaded fitting are specified.
• Workshop pneumatic equipment – connecting tools to compressed-air distribution lines when a swivel fitting helps accommodate changing equipment positions.

FAQs:

• Q: What makes the Ingersoll Rand 22041479 different from a straight-male air hose?

  A: The 22041479 includes a swivel male threaded fitting that allows rotational movement at the connection. This helps accommodate changes in hose orientation during operation, whereas a straight-male fitting provides a fixed connection without an integrated swivel.

• Q: What is the difference between Ingersoll Rand 22041479 and 22041453?

  A: Both hose assemblies feature a 1/2-inch inside diameter, 8-foot length, 250 PSI rating, and 1/2-inch NPT male connection. The 22041479 uses a swivel male fitting, while the 22041453 has a straight male fitting. Select the swivel version when the equipment installation calls for a rotating connection.

• Q: Does the 1/2-inch NPT size describe the hose diameter?

  A: No. NPT specifies the nominal pipe-thread size of the male fitting, while hose inside diameter identifies the internal air passage. On this particular assembly, both measurements happen to be 1/2 inch, but they are separate specifications that must be checked when replacing a hose.

• Q: Can this hose be used with pneumatic chipping hammers?

  A: Yes, when the chipping hammer accepts a compatible 1/2-inch NPT male connection and the manufacturer recommends the hose diameter and airflow capacity for the tool. Check the equipment's operating pressure and air inlet requirements before installation.

• Q: Does the swivel fitting eliminate the need to manage hose routing?

  A: No. Although the swivel connection can accommodate rotational movement, the hose must still be routed to avoid sharp bends, excessive tension, abrasion, and contact with moving equipment. Inspect the fitting and hose assembly regularly for wear or damage.
