Prevost Airca Series: Heavy-Duty EPDM Rubber Hose
The Industry Standard for Tough Environments.
The Prevost Airca Series is a premium-grade EPDM rubber hose engineered for the most demanding industrial and automotive applications. Unlike cheap PVC hoses that stiffen in the cold or degrade in the sun, Airca is built to withstand extreme temperatures, abrasion, and aggressive workshop chemicals while remaining flexible and easy to handle.
It is the “go-to” choice for professionals who need a hose that can lay flat on the floor, resist being run over, and deliver reliable air power year after year.
Key Features & Benefits
- Superior Durability (EPDM): Constructed from high-quality EPDM rubber, this hose offers exceptional resistance to ozone, UV rays, and heat. It won’t crack or check when left outside or exposed to sunlight, unlike standard rubber hoses.
- All-Weather Flexibility: Remains soft and pliable in freezing conditions (down to -40°F) and withstands high heat (up to +200°F). It creates no “memory,” meaning it lays flat instantly without coiling back up to trip you.
- Chemical Resistance: The outer cover is designed to resist oil mist, grease, and mild chemicals commonly found in garages and machine shops.
- High Visibility & Safety: Often available with a distinct yellow stripe or high-contrast branding, making it easy to spot on the workshop floor to prevent tripping hazards.
- Reinforced Core: Features a high-tensile textile braid reinforcement that ensures the hose holds its shape under pressure while maintaining a high safety factor against bursting.
