Safety Cable or Whip Check

Safety Cable or Whip Check as it’s often referred to as is used as a safety precaution in case of a hose blow out.  The last thing you want on your job site is a pressurized hose flailing around!  The safety cable or whip check is a braided steel cable with a loop on each end.  If you’re connecting two hoses, slide the loops over each end of the two hoses where the hose couplings connect.  When you’re connecting your hose to the blast pot, slide one loop over the tank coupling and one loop over the hose.  This will hold the hose if the connection comes undone.

Don’t forget to add one to your air hose at the compressor and the blast pot too!  This is a safety product; you can never have too many!!
