Product Overview

Because Everything Else Just Sucks!
A Simply Better Vacuum Hose
These hoses are freaky fast! TruBlu hose has a 3/4" internal diameter delivering 16 CFM of
conductance speed at 1,000 microns. Evacuate 80x faster than 1/4" I.D. hoses and up to 6x faster
than other “vacuum rated” hoses on the market today.
The TruBlu hose is extremely tough, ultra-smooth
bored, yet the flexible wire reinforced PVC means
it just won’t kink or collapse. TruBlu is resistant to
abrasion and crushing and can be knocked back to
round if accidently flattened. Additionally, the UV
compounding has excellent weather resistance to
provide years of reliable service.
The proprietary polymer blend has extremely low air
permeation, water vapor adhesion, and outgassing
making this hose ideal for vacuum service. In short
TruBlu’s ultra-smooth large bore reduces flow loss and
other losses providing the fastest evacuation of any
hose on the market today.
Dedicated to Vacuum
TruBlu is engineered for vacuum. Most manufacturers
of “evacuation hoses” use refrigerant transport hose
and “recertify” it for use in vacuum applications.
Refrigerant transfer hose is designed for refrigerant
transfer. The materials though are simply not
engineered for evacuation. Pick one up; it will be sti,
heavy, gassy and hydroscopic. Additionally, refrigerant
transport hose (charging hoses) should never be
used for refrigerant charging and evacuation. Oils and
contaminants will line the hose absorbing moisture
making a fast and deep vacuum almost unattainable.
If you want dedicated, you want TruBlu.
A Better Evacuation System
A fast evacuation is a function of the components
used in the process. TruBlu is the only system
engineered for HVAC that uses industrial rated
vacuum hose as well as vacuum rated KF fittings
for quick hose configuration and vacuum tight
connections.
One Hose Fits All
With our Patent Pending KF fitting designed
specifically for HVAC applications, a TruBlu hose can
be configured in the field for the pump and service
valve connections from 1/4", 3/8", to even 1/2" fittings
(even those with 90-degree adapters). Each fitting
and valve has been carefully engineered from the core
tools to the core depressors to assure vacuum tight
connections ideal for HVAC applications. While all
mechanical fittings leak, TruBlu fittings and hoses can
achieve leaks rates so low that vacuums of 20 microns
at the hose ends are easily possible even with the
smallest vacuum pumps.
Size Matters
Using a 3 CFM pump or larger? You need TruBlu!
Attaching a 1/4" hose to a vacuum pump can reduce
the flow to as little as 0.7 CFM. No matter how large
your pump is, (and remember size does matter!) it is
limited or restricted by the hoses you attach to it. The
deepest vacuum a pump can draw -14.7 PSI, so if you
want more flow you need a bigger hose. If you want
more flow you need TruBlu.
