How does a Hose Whipcheck work?
When an unintentional separation occurs it is because of compressed air or fluid building up in the hose. When this happens the hose will furiously whip because of the built up pressure. Through the use of whipcheck equipment hose whipping will not occur the strong galvanised stainless steel cable helps to prevent a whip through the easily fitted loaded spring loops which grip a hose securely and firmly.
When do I need to use a Whipcheck?
A whipcheck can be used with a hose or other high pressure operation that has compressed air or fluid going through it. They can be found in applications such as coal mining gardening and valeting.
