Calculating Broken Hose Thrust Force is needed so you can select proper size BOA Hose Grips™. BOA is a line of Wire Mesh Whip Socks from Lewis Mfg. that safely minimizes the dangerous high pressure whipping of a hose on blow out. In order to use a proper size BOA Hose Grip you will need to calculate the thrust force of a high pressure hose when it breaks.

BOA Hose Grips (Lewis BOA™), additionally as Bundle Keepers, provide hose abrasion and wear protection near the coupler’s fitting, where needed the most.
Use the following diagram and formulas to calculate the thrust force of a broken hose.
