    Hey guys- got a ton of welding hoses at a local auction. I picked up 50 hoses that went along with it with some odd fittings on them. Has anyone seen these? I have no idea what they would be used for. The company that went out of business is called Whertech, as far as I can tell they did commercial HVAC stuff. 7CF6C956-CB5D-4EBF-B55A-BFC60DBDFA61.jpeg

    Looks like a hydraulic coupler line or a gas line. Modern welders don’t use those, except maybe those big ass construction weld rigs that go on trucks. They look dated to me

    Trainwreck I could give a heck

    How big is the orifice? they kinda look like older liners for wire feeds. Did this place do a lot of welding in the field?

    Those don’t look like any hydraulic lines I have seen and we do lots of hydraulic lines with forklifts, scissor lifts, boom trucks, clamps, etc.

    These are used for conduit on wire drums. We use these on our robots they have quick connects that attach to top of 55lb drums that we keep our welding wire in and go directly to the wire feeder. Its just conduit to protect the welding wire.
