Hose & Cable Guard Avvolgitubo Rulli di Guida per Pneumatici
Guida tubo a rulli: le guide a rulli accompagnano i tubi compatibili intorno agli ostacoli che danno fastidio. Forma e appoggio devono andare bene per quel punto, così il tubo resta libero di muoversi.
Non sostituiscono un percorso del tubo pensato bene su tutta la postazione; pieghe, tiro e contatto con la vernice restano da tenere d'occhio.

A hose guide is a roller placed against the tire before washing to lead water hoses, high-pressure hoses, or cables past the wheel. This prevents the line from getting stuck in the gap under the tire when moving around the car. It only shares its working principle with a winch pulley.
According to the manufacturer, the guide is wedged under the tire before you start working. The hose runs along it before reaching the flat wedge between the tire and the ground, where it would otherwise get pinched. It turns an edge that would normally catch the hose into a curve, allowing it to glide through smoothly without jerking.
Place two hose guides at the wheels the hose will curve around before turning on the water, and guide it with your free hand instead of yanking it from the other side. If you don't have rollers, a wide arc around the wheel helps. The Koch-Chemie Hose & Cable Guard is perfect for this.
Koch-Chemie explicitly mentions hoses and cables for cleaning and detailing in reference to the Hose & Cable Guard, including cords for polishing machines or vacuum cleaners. The manufacturer does not specify a maximum hose diameter. Check during your first use whether your high-pressure hose fits in the roller and does not pop over the edge.
For standard washing with one hose, two guides are sufficient—one at each wheel on the side the hose is coming from. The Koch-Chemie set comes with exactly two cable guides. If you are working with lines on both sides of the vehicle simultaneously, for example a hose on the left and a cable on the right, you need a guide on both sides.
No. The hose reel organizes the length of the hose and coils it up after washing; the hose guide only addresses the corner at the wheel. The two complement each other. In a self-service bay with an overhead boom where the hose comes from above, rollers on the tire are usually unnecessary. You can find why a reel is part of the accessories for a high-pressure cleaner under high-pressure cleaners.
