OVERVIEW

Professional Gas Hose Maintenance Solution

The Powerweld PW-82 Hose Repair Kit is an essential maintenance asset for any industrial facility utilizing oxy-fuel cutting and welding equipment. Gas leaks in welding hoses pose significant safety hazards and efficiency losses. This kit provides a comprehensive solution for repairing standard 1/4-inch internal diameter (I.D.) hoses, allowing maintenance personnel to swiftly address damaged sections without the immediate need for full hose replacement.

At the core of this kit is the PW1098 Pincers, a specialized crimping tool designed to apply the correct amount of force to the included circle clamps. Unlike standard pliers which can distort clamps or damage the hose liner, these pincers ensure a uniform, concentric seal that maintains the integrity of the gas line under working pressures. The kit includes a supply of circle clamps (ferrules) specifically sized for 1/4-inch hoses, ensuring a secure fit that resists popping off or leaking during operation.

Regular inspection and maintenance of gas distribution equipment are critical for OSHA compliance and workplace safety. The PW-82 kit empowers safety officers and MRO technicians to perform factory-quality repairs on-site. Whether dealing with abrasion damage, accidental cuts, or worn ends near the torch fittings, this kit restores the hose's functionality and safety. Its compact form factor makes it an ideal addition to any central tool crib or mobile maintenance unit.

Key Technical Benefits:

  • Targeted Compatibility: Specifically engineered for 1/4" I.D. hoses, the most common size in industrial oxy-acetylene setups.
  • Leak Prevention: The crimping mechanism provides a superior seal compared to temporary fixes, preventing hazardous gas accumulation.
  • Cost Efficiency: Extends the service life of expensive twin-line hoses by allowing for the removal of damaged segments.

FAQ

The Powerweld PW-82 is specifically designed for 1/4-inch internal diameter (I.D.) hoses, which is a standard size for many oxy-fuel welding and cutting applications.

Yes, the kit comes complete with the PW1098 pincers, which are the specialized pliers needed to crimp the circle clamps effectively.

No, the circle clamps (or ear clamps) are designed for single-use. Once crimped, they deform to create the seal and must be cut off to be removed.

Yes, as long as the propane hose is a standard 1/4-inch I.D. rubber hose similar to those used in oxy-fuel setups, this kit can be used for repairs.

The description specifies the inclusion of pincers and circle clamps. While many repair kits include fittings, this specific SKU highlights the tool and clamps. It is recommended to verify if additional brass fittings are needed for your specific repair (e.g., splicing two ends vs. re-attaching a nut).

Worm-gear clamps can be bulky, creating snag points, and may not provide uniform pressure on small diameter hoses. The circle clamps in this kit provide a 360-degree seal and a low profile that is safer and more durable for welding hoses.

The PW1098 pincers are designed for standard ear/circle clamps. They will generally work with other clamps of the same style and size range found in the industry.
