Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Binks recommend 5/16" air hose instead of 1/4" for spray guns?

Pressure drop. Binks' own figures for a 25 ft hose with 60 PSI at the regulator:

  • 5/16″ I.D. loses 12 PSI, so the gun sees 48 PSI.
  • 1/4″ I.D. loses 26 PSI, so the gun sees only 34 PSI.

That missing 14 PSI is the difference between a clean fan and a coarse, spitting pattern, and it gets worse with longer runs. Trophy guns likewise call for a conductive hose of at least 5/16″, larger for long runs. Clemtex stocks 5/16″ assemblies in 25 ft and 50 ft, and bulk 5/16″ hose by the foot.

Also: pitch air lines back toward the compressor with a drain at every low point, and mount the oil and water extractor well away from the compressor so the air has cooled before it is filtered.
