APEX DESIGN USA Nylon Braided Air Line for Custom Air Systems

APEX DESIGN USA nylon braided air line is a flexible air system hose sold per foot for custom compressor, tyre inflation and onboard-air routing. It is suited to off-road, overlanding and performance vehicle builds where the air line length needs to be tailored rather than bought as a fixed hose assembly.

Use it when you are building or repairing an APEX-based air setup, connecting an APEX Compact Reel System to a compressor, or replacing damaged CRS air line. The key buying point is simple: 1 quantity equals 1 foot, so you can order the length needed for your route.

What This Braided Air Line Does

Compressed-air systems rely on hose that can be routed cleanly between the compressor, reel system and the working end of the setup. This APEX DESIGN USA air line uses a nitrile rubber construction with a durable nylon braid, giving a compact and flexible hose for general air applications.

For 4x4 and touring builds, the problem is usually packaging. Air line often needs to pass around existing vehicle hardware while still allowing a tidy installation. This hose helps by combining a compact 3/8 inch outside diameter with flexible construction, making it easier to plan a custom route without committing to a pre-set length.

Who Should Use This APEX Air Hose

  • Owners building a custom APEX air system around a compressor or hose reel.
  • Drivers replacing damaged air line on an APEX Compact Reel System.
  • Overlanding and off-road users who need practical tyre inflation support.
  • Workshops or home installers measuring and cutting air hose to suit a specific layout.
  • Buyers who already use, or plan to use, APEX hose end fittings.

This is not a complete onboard-air kit. It is the hose section of the system, so fittings and other air system components should be selected separately to suit the installation.

Compatibility and Fitting Notes

APEX states that this braided air line is only compatible with APEX hose end fittings. If you are adapting a hose reel to a compressor, APEX advises that two hose end fittings are needed. A suitable related option is the APEX DESIGN USA 3/8 inch braided hose to 1/4 inch NPT male fitting with cover nut.

No vehicle-specific fitment is required for the hose itself. Suitability depends on your air system layout, hose length, APEX fittings and the compressor or reel configuration being used.

Before Ordering Your Air Line

Measure the full hose route before choosing quantity, including bends and service access. Order enough length for the intended layout, then pair the hose with compatible APEX hose end fittings. Avoid assuming universal fitting compatibility, especially if the rest of the air system uses non-APEX hardware.

When installing, cut cleanly, route carefully and check all connections after assembly. Keep the hose away from unnecessary abrasion and excessive heat exposure where your vehicle layout allows.

Questions before you order

Frequently asked questions

How is this APEX braided air line sold?

It is sold per foot. A quantity of 1 equals 1 ft, so choose the quantity based on the total length required for your setup.

What fittings does this hose use?

APEX states that the hose is only compatible with APEX hose end fittings. Fittings are not included with the air line.

Can I use it to connect an APEX hose reel to a compressor?

Yes, APEX identifies this air line for installing the Compact Reel System to a compressor. APEX advises that two hose end fittings are needed for that type of adaptation.

Is there a temperature rating?

No numeric temperature rating is stated for this standalone hose. It is described as heat resistant and weather resistant.

Is this hose vehicle-specific?

No. It is an air system hose rather than a vehicle-specific part. Check the length, routing and APEX fitting compatibility for your build before ordering.
