About Whip check:
Whip check safety cable is designed specially to prevent hose connections to whip if the hoses or couplings failed to hold. The accident usually happen with high pressure and will make hoses or equipment shake which may cause injury for people or the nearby coupling & equipment.
Whip check slings are a good safeguard for hose connections. These strong steel cables prevent hose whip in case of accidental separation of coupling or clamping. Whip check reaches across the hose fittings to provide stand-by safety for hose. Spring loaded loops in cable ends open easily to pass over the couplings for griping on hose,
Whipcheck Standard Sizes and configurations:
Our Whip check safety cable are available mainly in two diameters and a number of different configurations.
Whip check safety cable have been used for many years on air compressor hoses to prevent hose ends from whipping if the coupling blows out of the hose.
Whip check safety cable are available in 1/8″ and 1/4″ cable diameters and in two basic configurations – hose to hose and hose to tool. Hose to Hose are used at the joint between two hose assemblies. Hose to Tool are mainly used at the junction between the hose and the tool but are also very important at the compressor end. The compressed gas can be hot causing the hose to soften which in turn can lead to an possibility of failure.
Whipcheck Material of Component:
The standard materials of the wire are galvanised steel, plated steel springs and aluminium ferrules. However, Whipcheck are available in a variety of different styles including Stainless Steel and copper ferrules for marine and applications where the risk of the steel cables sparking is not acceptable.
Function
To prevent the hose from whipping when released involuntarily, Hose whip check safety cable provides a double guard safety. The Whip Check Failure equipment features a robust cable assembly and a noose collar on each end. The collar must comply with the hose diameter for maximum proficiency.
By tightening the cinch when the hose is unchecked, whip check safety cable restraint the pressure. This causes the stability of the hose and even stops the flow significantly.
The cable assembly is designed with two mechanisms, including one for flange-type connections, and two, for port adapters.

Safety Requirements:
While the whip check safety cable for pressure hoses are able to withstand high pressure ratings, local governments or industries’ policies require the use of the cable chokers around the joints and connection of any high pressure hose system.
Safety regulations for high pressure hoses, referring to pressure of 100 Psi or more, are considered essential around the world. Safety chains, or equivalent means, shall be provided for each hose connection to prevent the line from thrashing around in case the coupling becomes disconnected. Please note, if the hose whip restraints are chosen from an improper size, or misplaced instead of installation on the appropriate crimping place, the operation of the strain may fail. The wrong whip check safety cable sizes could jeopardize the safety of the workers and result in accidents due to hose pressure failure.
Caution When Using:
Using the Whipcheck safety cables correctly is very important to their performance. The loop ends should be placed as far down the hose as possible. With the Hose to Hose type, the ferrule in the centre of the Whipcheck should lay at the same point as the joint between the two hoses.
Application of Hose Safety Cable Chokers
Cable choker hose restraints are mostly used for applications that fall under the pressure rating standards such as air hose protection, safety cable for pressure hose. With high pressure hoses for petroleum synthetic, chemical gases, oil Field hose safety and water based hydraulic hose restraint fluids can benefit from this hose whip protection equipment. Here are some instances.
Construction sites
Agricultural sector for hydraulic suction and discharge
Pharmaceutical productions
Food and consumable goods packaging industries, etc.
Used as Drilling Rig hose safety
Etc.
The Essential Utility of Hose Whip Restraint
The fitting separation may happen due to varied reasons; it could be an installation error, accidental detachment caused by outside impacts and potential wear and corrosion. Safety restraint systems for pressure hoses offer a secondary level of safety for the personnel and nearby equipment for the whip damage.
The injuries caused by a loose pressure hose can range from light liaisons and bruises to complete fatalities. As high as the pressure gets, the accident may be more fatal.
Moreover, the hose may contain hazardous chemical and flammable gases that can increase the danger of these incidents. Once the hose joint breaks free, the hose restraint slows down the pressure by tightening the noose that sits around the hose itself, which results in partial or complete shutdown of the flow.
