Drop Hoses
Drop hoses provide flexibility so fuelers can easily connect nozzles to locomotive tank adapters.
Snyder’s standard 200 PSI drop hoses provide improved ergonomics with excellent degradation resistance. Crimped ends provide a 4:1 safety ratio.
Standard drop hoses come with flanged upper connections. Older cranes with drop pipes may require shorter hoses with Kamlock connections on both ends.
All drop hoses are tested under a full load and tagged and serialized to ensure traceability.
Drop hose length is measured from the ends of the overall drop hose assembly (Kamlock to Kamlock, or Kamlock to flange).
Drop hoses come in two standard lengths for each style of fuel crane and configuration.
