RUPES 16.5' (5M) Conic Antistatic Hose Assembly for Pneumatic Sanders, 9GAT02004/X
Product Overview
The RUPES 16.5' (5m) Conic Antistatic Coaxial Hose Assembly for Pneumatic Sanders (9GAT02004/X) is a premium dual-line hose designed for use with RUPES S145EPL and S245EPL dust extractors and RUPES Skorpio pneumatic sanders or similar air tools.
Thanks to a larger internal section and conic design, this hose increases airflow velocity and improves dust extraction efficiency. The tapered terminal end enhances ergonomics, reduces drag, and improves tool performance. At nearly 16.5 feet long, it provides generous reach for most professional sanding environments.
Engineered with high-efficiency antistatic materials, this hose dissipates electrostatic charges generated during sanding and is suitable for ATEX 2014/34/EU environments where explosive dust may be present.
The coaxial design integrates a vacuum hose and a pneumatic air supply line into one assembly, simplifying setup and improving workflow in centralized dust-extraction systems.

- Antistatic construction is essential for composite, fiberglass, and marine environments where static buildup is common.
- Pre-terminated 1/4" NPT fittings make installation fast and compatible with standard U.S. pneumatic connections.
Compatibility
Compatible with RUPES S145EPL and S245EPL dust extractors, and all RUPES Skorpio and other RUPES pneumatic sanders. This hose is also compatible with any brand pneumatic sander using a standard 1/4" NPT air fitting.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is this hose compatible with non-RUPES pneumatic sanders?
Yes. Any pneumatic sander using a standard 1/4" NPT air fitting can use this hose.
Does this hose work with electric sanders?
No. This hose is designed specifically for pneumatic air sanders with built-in vacuum ports.
Is the hose truly antistatic?
Yes. The material is treated to dissipate static electricity and is suitable for ATEX 2014/34/EU environments.
Does the hose include both air and vacuum lines?
Yes. This is a coaxial assembly with both lines integrated into one hose for cleaner workflow.
What dust extractors are recommended?
RUPES S145EPL and S245EPL extractors, or similar vacuum units with matching size hose ports.
