Tube Cleaning System

NOTE: The Tube Cleaning System is designed to work with 22mm hoses.

Hanging the hose to soak on the tube bridge: Snap the body of a standard, 22mm hose, not the hose cuff or the tube cap, into the cutouts on the sides of the hose bridge. The hose will be securely held in place in the cutout.

Alternative method of hanging a 15mm hose to soak on the tube bridge: When using a 15mm hose whose body is thinner than that of a standard, 22mm hose, the hose will not snap into the cutouts on the tube bridge. An option is to insert the plugs into the rubber cuff leaving approximately 1/4 inch of the plug out of the cuff. Hang the hose on the tube bridge using area of exposed plug.

Hose/Tubing Sizes and the Cleaning System

• Standard, 22mm, rubber cuffed hoses:
  • Caps fit snugly on the ends.
  • The hose snaps into the tube bridge cutouts when hanging to soak or dry.

• Thin or slim line, 15mm, rubber cuffed hoses:
  • Caps fit snugly on the ends.
  • Because the hose is thinner, it does not snap into the tube bridge cutouts when hanging to soak or dry.
  • The alternative method of hanging the 15mm tube described above can be used.

• Heated hoses, 22mm hoses:
  • Because of the connecting ends that snap onto machines, the caps do not fit the hose ends.
  • The hose does snap into the tube bridge cutouts when hanging to soak or dry.

• Heated hoses, 15mm hoses:
  • Because of the connecting ends that snap onto machines, the caps do not fit the ends.
  • The hose is thinner, it does not snap into the tube bridge cutouts when hanging to soak or dry.
  • Consider the alternative method of hanging the 15mm tube described above.

• Hard cuffed hoses, 22mm diameter:
  • Because of the hard material, the caps do not fit on the hose ends.
  • The hose does snap into the tube bridge cutouts when hanging to soak or dry.

• Hard cuffed hoses, 15mm diameter:
  • The caps do not fit due to the hard material of the hose ends
  • The hose is thinner, it does not snap into the tube bridge cutouts when hanging to soak or dry.
  • However, the alternative method of hanging the 15mm tube described above can be used.
