Spray hose coming apart

[emr]

We bought an extra 100ft of hose for our spray rig this spring. We put quick connect couplers on each end so we can easily add it when needed. We have had a reoccurring problem of the quick connect coming out of the hose. We added extras hose clamps but it still happens. Is there some type of adhesive we can add to keep the connection together?

Are you using the right type of connector? I have seen a lot of pneumatic application stuff applied to spray rigs. If you have a good hydraulic supply place nearby it's worth having them take a peek. The right hose and connector should not need adhesive.

The hose and connectors are directly from the company who made our spray rig so I hope they are matched correctly.

Have a hydraulic guy take a look just for the hell of it... See if it's the right stuff. I speak from experience, fwiw.
