Pneumatic Hose Alphacool 18413

The Alphacool 18413 pneumatic hose is a transparent, flexible tubing designed for pneumatic applications in PC cooling systems and related setups. With a length of 3 meters and a diameter of 1.3 cm, the hose supports air transport at pressures up to 4 bar. It includes a nipple size of 1.5 mm and a lightweight construction of approximately 275 g, offering a balance of durability and maneuverability for routing and connecting pneumatic lines.

Advantages

The transparent material provides visual confirmation of air flow and makes it easier to detect contamination or blockages. At 3 meters long, the hose allows for extended reach within chassis or between components while keeping connections neat. Rated for a maximum pressure of 4 bar, the tubing is suitable for typical low-pressure pneumatic circuits. Its lightweight design and flexible construction simplify installation and reduce strain on fittings.

Suitable for

• Routing pneumatic lines within PC cooling systems and custom setups
• Low-pressure air transport and circulation tasks up to 4 bar
• Prototype and hobby pneumatic projects requiring transparent tubing
• Applications where visual inspection of airflow or contaminants is needed

Key specifications

• Length: 3 meters
• Outer diameter: 1.3 cm
• Nipple connection size: 1.5 mm
• Maximum operating pressure: 4 bar
• Weight: 0.275 kg
• Colour: transparent

How to use

Measure and cut the hose to the required length using a sharp tubing cutter or a clean, straight blade to ensure smooth ends. Slide appropriate clamps or fittings over the hose before attaching it to nipples or connectors, then secure fittings to prevent air leaks. Route the tubing to avoid sharp bends or kinks and ensure it is supported or clipped where necessary to prevent strain on connectors. Periodically inspect the transparent hose for signs of wear, discoloration, or blockages and replace if any damage is detected.

Recommendations

Use compatible fittings sized for a 1.5 mm nipple and avoid exceeding the 4 bar maximum pressure. For long-term installations, mount the hose away from heat sources and sharp edges. If visibility of internal flow is important, keep the transparent surface clean and inspect regularly for condensation or particulate buildup.
