NuNu Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Just wondering if Adam's has ever thought of making a coupler to put two of the air cannon hoses together? I have 3 air cannons mounted to the wall and I don't really like taking them down but Im always just a tad short on the hose and could just make it to where I wanted to be with just a little bit more hose. If there was a coupler that we could join two hoses together so I could add a 16ft hose to the 30ft hose it would be great! Adding tow 30ft hoses together would be cool as well.

Dan@Adams Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Hi Jonathan! That's a cool idea for sure that I can pass along; however there could be some drop in airflow adding more length to the hose, and we would need to make sure any coupler is 100% sealed as well. I'll bring it up to the product development team as a recommendation, thanks! NuNu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayS Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 @NuNu Here's a method to couple two vacuum or blower hoses, keeping in mind that with an extended length the airflow will be reduced as Dan point out. Get a PCV straight connector that your hose will fit on the outside of. Make sure the size is as close as possible and if needed you can use some warmth to get the hose to expand or stretch a tiny amount, but don't force it as they will will tear or split. As for getting it airtight, use plastic hose clamps as the metal ones will cut into the hose and eventually cause it to rip (no need to ask me how I know). As an added sealant you can run a bead of bathtub calk where the two hoses butt against each other and you should be set for multiple years.

I’d just like it if I could say remove the flat nozzle off the end of the hose then install another small extension hose then put the nozzle back on. You get what I’m saying? If there was a easy coupler I could slap the hose on and off when needed and not have to store it on the hose hanger that is made of the blaster mount. I’m like 10ft short of what I need so I guess if not a coupler a 40ft hose option would be nice as well. Dan@Adams 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GXPaycheck Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I picked up a long pool vac hose for my master blaster. Works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuNu Posted November 14, 2020 Author Share Posted November 14, 2020 Great idea, I’ll try it today as I am gonna be using the blaster and have a pool hose handy. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan@Adams Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Just a quick update: I spoke to Phil and he's going to talk to our manufacturer to see if they would manufacture a coupler for us! stalebreadjr, NuNu and Nickfire20 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's all I have to update right now. NuNu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuNu Posted October 7, 2021 Author Share Posted October 7, 2021 Still waiting and hoping. Sure would be nice not to have to take my cannon off the wall mount anymore. Would love to join two hoses together Dynamite 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NuNu Posted December 13, 2021 Author Share Posted December 13, 2021 Ok ....make one and put the word graphene on it then haha. Just checking in once and a while on this. Kinda getting use to pulling the machine off the wall and rolling it around instead of just having a longer hose. No worries and Happy Holidays!

Just_1 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Some guy reached out to me to make one. First prototype is almost done. I'll send it to him for some testing. If it works well, I'll come back with more info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
