Abstract
A conductive hose having dual connections disposed in the internal spiral groove formed in an air carrying hose includes plastic molded couplers on its ends which provide the fluidic and electrical connection to members that may be coupled thereto. Each of the molded couplers consists of inner and outer telescoped members that are glued together at their mating peripheries with the inner member including ribbed portions at the junction of the two mating parts. A strain relief is mounted between the members and retained by them so that electrical flow may be securely had through the hose and its couplers.
