Jackhammer Hose: Delivers Air and Water in Two Lines

The Twinhammer jackhammer hose is able to deliver both water and air in the same hose assembly, providing dust control for pneumatic breaker tools. The two hoses are bonded across the entire length and are made of abrasion-resistant material. The water hose is designed to connect to dust-suppression systems mounted on a pneumatic jackhammer, allowing for the concrete-breaking tool to be used within the requirements of new OSHA regulations regarding silica-dust exposure.
