Draper Heavy Duty Air Connector Kit, 3/8"

A Complete Air Connection Kit for Workshop Setup

The Draper CONNECT KIT HD is a heavy-duty air tool connection kit that brings together everything you need to link your compressor to your tools in one tidy package. Centred around a generous 15.2-metre PVC air line, a safety-focused whip hose, and a full set of PCL-style couplings, it's designed to take the guesswork out of setting up a compressed air system — whether you're equipping a new workshop, replacing tired components on an existing setup, or putting together a mobile air tool kit for site work.

Generous 15.2-Metre PVC Air Line

At the heart of the kit is a 15.2-metre length of high-pressure PVC air line hose with a 3/8" bore. The 3/8" bore is well-matched to most workshop air tools, giving you the air flow needed to keep impact wrenches, nailers, blow guns, and other accessories running at full performance. The 15.2-metre length offers plenty of reach for moving around a typical workshop or garage, letting you work confidently with the compressor parked safely out of the way.

Health & Safety Whip Hose for Safer Tool Connection

A standout inclusion is the 600mm x 1/4" Health & Safety whip hose. Whip hoses are designed to provide a short, flexible connection between the main air line and the tool itself, helping to reduce wear and strain on the main hose at the connection point — typically the area where damage occurs first on a stiffer PVC line. They also provide a more comfortable, flexible "tail" at the tool end, making the tool easier to manoeuvre and reducing fatigue during prolonged use. It's a small detail that makes a real difference in daily working comfort.

PCL-Style Coupling Set

The kit is supplied with a PCL-style coupling set including male taper, female parallel, and female safety couplings, plus a 1/4" BSP and 1/4" parallel female coupling. PCL is the long-standing UK standard for quick-connect air fittings, ensuring broad compatibility with workshop air tools and accessories. The mix of couplings included means you can connect your compressor, hose, whip hose, and tools confidently — without scrambling for additional fittings to make everything work together.

Female Safety Couplings for Controlled Disconnection

The inclusion of a female safety coupling is worth highlighting. Safety couplings work in two stages when disconnecting: the first action vents the pressurised air, and the second releases the fitting. This prevents the sudden "whip" or "snap" that can happen with traditional couplings when disconnecting a charged airline — improving operator safety and reducing the risk of injury or component damage from an uncontrolled release.

Ideal Applications

The Draper CONNECT KIT HD is a strong fit for users setting up a new workshop or garage compressed air system from scratch, replacing worn hoses and couplings on an existing setup, equipping a service van or mobile workshop with reliable air connection components, and home users stepping up to more serious compressed air work who want all the right connection components in one go. It pairs particularly well with the Draper range of air compressors and pneumatic tools, ensuring a coherent, properly-fitted setup throughout.

Backed by the trusted Draper Tools name, the CONNECT KIT HD brings together a generous length of PVC airline, a safety-focused whip hose, and a comprehensive set of PCL-style couplings in one practical kit — a sensible foundation for any compressed air setup that values both performance and operator safety.
