OVERVIEW

Reliable Oxy-Acetylene Delivery System

The Victor 1412-0016 is a premium-quality Grade R twin welding hose designed to facilitate safe and efficient oxy-acetylene operations. Manufactured by Victor Technologies, a leader in gas equipment, this hose is engineered to withstand the rigors of daily industrial use while maintaining strict safety standards. The hose features a twin-line configuration, permanently bonded to prevent tangling while keeping the oxygen and fuel lines organized. The color-coding system—green for oxygen and red for acetylene—adheres to industry standards, minimizing the risk of cross-connection and enhancing workplace safety.

With a 1/4-inch inner diameter, this hose provides ample gas flow for a wide range of cutting, welding, and heating applications, making it suitable for medium to heavy-duty torch outfits. The 50-foot length is particularly advantageous for workshops and construction sites where the operator needs to move freely around large workpieces without constantly repositioning the gas cylinders. The hose is fitted with standard B-size brass fittings (9/16" - 18 threads), ensuring compatibility with the vast majority of regulators and torch handles on the market today.

It is critical to note that this is a Grade R hose, specifically formulated for use with acetylene gas only. The liner material is not compatible with alternate fuels such as propane, propylene, or natural gas, which can deteriorate Grade R rubber and lead to hazardous leaks. For acetylene users, however, this hose offers excellent resistance to kinking, abrasion, and weather, ensuring a long service life. The outer cover is textured to provide a secure grip and resist damage from dragging across concrete floors or around sharp metal edges.

FAQ

No. This is a Grade R hose designed specifically for Acetylene. Propane and other fuel gases can deteriorate the rubber lining of Grade R hoses, leading to leaks and potential fire hazards. You need a Grade T hose for alternate fuels.

This hose comes with standard B-Size fittings, which have 9/16" - 18 threads. This is the most common connection size for industrial welding regulators and torches.

The green line is for Oxygen, which has right-hand threads. The red line is for the Fuel gas (Acetylene), which has left-hand threads (indicated by a notch on the nut) to prevent cross-connection.

Yes, the 1/4-inch inner diameter provides sufficient gas flow for most heavy-duty cutting attachments and heating nozzles.

No, this product is the hose assembly only. Flashback arrestors are sold separately and are highly recommended for safety.

Inspect your hose regularly for cracks, dry rot, cuts, or burns. If you see the internal reinforcement mesh or detect leaks (using a soapy water test), replace the hose immediately.

The hose is rated for a maximum working pressure of 200 PSI, which is well above standard operating pressures for oxy-acetylene welding and cutting.

While repair kits exist, it is generally safer and OSHA-compliant in many jurisdictions to replace a damaged hose rather than splice it, to ensure integrity and safety.
