FAQ – Mirka Pneumatic Hose 27 mm x 5.5 m
-
1. What tools is this hose designed for?
This hose is designed for Mirka PROS and ROS pneumatic sanders using central vacuum dust extraction and compressed air supply through an integrated pneumatic line.
-
2. What is the internal diameter and length of the hose?
The hose has an internal diameter of 27 mm and an approximate length of 5.5 m.
-
3. Does the hose include an air line for the sander?
Yes. It is a combined dust extraction hose with integrated pneumatic line, so both dust extraction and compressed air are routed together.
-
4. Is this hose antistatic or conductive?
The material includes additives for conductivity according to the safety data sheet, helping to reduce static build-up during sanding and dust transport.
-
5. Is the product classified as dangerous for transport or handling?
No. The article is classified as “not dangerous” under EU regulations when properly handled and stored, and it is not subject to ADR/RID, IMDG or IATA dangerous goods provisions.
-
6. What is the approximate weight of the hose?
Distributor information indicates a weight of about 1.85 kg for the 5.5 m version. This value is not an official Mirka figure and should be treated as indicative only.
-
7. Can this hose be used with non-Mirka sanders?
It is optimised for Mirka pneumatic sanders and connector systems. Use with other tools depends on connector compatibility and should be checked on a case-by-case basis.
-
8. Does the hose require special storage conditions?
The safety data sheet recommends storing the hose in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and ignition sources.
-
9. Is any special maintenance required?
In normal use no special maintenance is specified; keeping the hose free from kinks, excessive crushing and sharp edges will help extend its service life.
-
10. Where can I find the most accurate technical data?
For detailed and fully verified information, always refer to the most recent official documentation provided by Mirka.
Section 14 – Transport information
According to the safety data sheet for the Mirka Dust Extraction Hose 27 mm x 5.5 m with integrated pneumatic line, this article is not classified as dangerous goods for transport:
- Land transport (ADR/RID): The article is not subject to ADR/RID provisions or to regulations on the carriage of dangerous goods by road or rail.
- Sea transport (IMDG): The article is not subject to the IMDG Code for seagoing vessels or to maritime dangerous goods regulations.
- Air transport (IATA): The article is not subject to IATA-DGR provisions for air transport or to related dangerous goods regulations.
