Product Overview
Replacement solution hose for the Hydro-Force SX-12 tile cleaning tool. 3/16 inch bore, 48 inches long, with 1/4 inch MPT and 1/4 inch FPT ends.
Important — The Temperature Limit Is Real
This hose is rated to a maximum of 100 degrees C.
Truckmount solution can run hotter than that. A hose used above its rating does not fail gradually — it fails at pressure, at the operator's end, with hot water in it. Check what your machine is actually delivering rather than what it is set to.

Operating Advice
- Replace it on condition. Check for blistering, softening or weeping at the ends, which is where a solution hose fails first.
- Do not exceed 100 degrees C. If your machine runs hotter, talk to us about the options before fitting it.
- Seal the threads as any tapered thread; never on a coupling face.
- Depressurise before changing it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which tool does it fit?
The Hydro-Force SX-12 (AW104).
Can I use it at truckmount temperature?
Only if your machine stays at or below 100 degrees C at the tool. Many run hotter.
Is it the same hose as the SX-15 uses?
No. Tell us the tool and we will supply the right one.
What are the end fittings?
1/4 inch male pipe thread one end, 1/4 inch female pipe thread the other.

What We See in the Field
Short solution hoses on rotary tools are replaced after they fail rather than before, and they fail at the fittings under heat. On a tool that lives at the hot end of the line, a hose is a scheduled item.
