Air Hose Size

What size air hose do I need for different tools ? Like framing nailer, finish nailer etc. Can I use the 3/8 ID or the 1/4 ID ? Can on size be used for all, Thank You, Nolan

Nolan, read the page on "Pressure Drop" linked from the site map page.

Yes, you can use one size for all. It were me supplying a variety of air tools from one hose, I'd go to 1/2" ID.

Cheers,

Bill
