A vacuum cleaner hose can break because it is prone to damage. If it breaks, you do not need to buy a new hose or even a new vacuum cleaner. We have the solution.
Repair your hose in just 5 minutes
With the professional repair kit tubefix you can quickly and easily repair your vacuum cleaner hose yourself. The repair kit contains two threaded couplings
- a threaded coupling for a vacuum cleaner hose with 32mm diameter
- and a threaded coupling for a hose with 35mm diameter
Required materials for repair
For tubing repair, you will need scissors and tubefix and, if available, lighter or benzine.
Procedure for hose repair
Step 1: Locate the break point.
Step 2: Use a pair of scissors to cut the tube cleanly at this point of breakage so that the cut points are nicely straight and can form a perfect connection with tubefix.
Step 3: Now connect first the one piece of hose with our tubefix and then the other side.
Tip: To save strength and time, comes here the lighter or white spirit used. Apply this on both sides of the threaded coupling and turn the cut hose parts onto our tubefix. You will see that there is less friction from the gas and that the hose ends slide very easily. If the gasoline is then gone, the parts remain firmly connected.
And already the vacuum cleaner hose is repaired
The connection between the cut ends of the hose and the tubefix is so firm that it can not be separated. Now you can continue sucking as usual and be happy that you have saved money. Why throw money out the window when fixing is so easy?
