Overview
The Ross Controls 1969A5002 Hoze-Fuze is a compact, inline safety shut-off valve engineered for pneumatic and light hydraulic systems operating up to 260 PSI. This valve serves as a critical protective component in compressed air circuits, automatically isolating flow when pressure exceeds safe operating limits. The NPT port configuration and aluminum construction make it suitable for industrial and mobile equipment applications where fast, reliable pressure relief is essential.
Key Features
- Maximum Pressure Rating: 260 psig (17.9 bar)
- Compact Inline Design: Fits directly into hose or tube circuits without large manifold assemblies
- Automatic Pressure Relief: Prevents overpressure conditions and equipment failure
- Durable Materials: Aluminum body with Hostalen piston
- Flexible Port Options: NPT and BSPP port threads available
- Wide Temperature Range: Operating temperature range of -4° to 275°F (-20° to 135°C)
Technical Specifications
- Maximum Pressure: 260 psi (17.9 bar)
- Body Material: Aluminum
- Piston Material: Hostalen
- Port Threads: NPT (standard for 1969A5002)
- Operating Temperature: -4° to 275°F (-20° to 135°C)

Typical Applications
The Hoze-Fuze is widely used in pneumatic tool circuits, air compressor protection systems, industrial automation, mobile equipment hydraulic lines, and compressed air distribution networks. It provides fail-safe overpressure protection in machinery, pneumatic presses, cylinders, and any fluid power system where uncontrolled pressure spikes could cause equipment damage or safety hazards. This valve is particularly valuable in tool control circuits where hose pressurization must be managed automatically.
