OVERVIEW

Reliable Oxy-Acetylene Delivery with ESAB Grade RM Hose

For professionals and hobbyists utilizing oxy-acetylene setups, the integrity of your gas delivery system is paramount. The ESAB 571F73 Twin Welding Hose is a premium Grade RM assembly designed to meet the specific needs of acetylene fuel gas users. Unlike universal hoses, Grade RM is engineered specifically for acetylene, ensuring the rubber compound resists the chemical action of the gas while maintaining flexibility and durability over time. This specific assembly features a 3/16-inch inner diameter, making it significantly lighter than standard 1/4-inch hoses, which is a critical advantage for operators performing fine detail work or welding for extended periods.

The hose comes pre-assembled with A-A fittings. In the welding industry, "A" size fittings (3/8"-24 threads) are typically found on light-duty torches and regulators, often used in HVAC, jewelry making, and light fabrication. This ensures a direct, secure connection without the need for bulky adapters that can add weight to your torch handle. The 25.5-foot length offers a generous working radius, allowing you to move around your workbench or fixture without dragging heavy cylinders behind you.

Safety is built into the design with industry-standard color coding—Green for Oxygen and Red for Acetylene—preventing cross-connection errors during setup. The cover is resistant to abrasion and kinking, ensuring that gas flow remains consistent even in somewhat rugged shop environments. When you choose this ESAB hose from Josef Gas, you are investing in a component that balances safety, performance, and ease of use.

FAQ

Grade RM indicates that the hose is designed specifically for Acetylene gas. The rubber liner is resistant to Acetylene but should not be used with alternate fuel gases like Propane or Natural Gas, which require Grade T hose.

This hose features 'A' size fittings, which have 3/8"-24 threads. These are smaller than the standard 'B' size (9/16"-18) fittings found on heavy-duty equipment.

No, this is a Grade RM hose intended for Acetylene only. Using Propane or other alternate fuels can deteriorate the rubber liner, leading to leaks and safety hazards. You need a Grade T hose for Propane.

It depends on the application. 3/16 inch hose is lighter and more flexible, making it ideal for light-duty torches and precision work. 1/4 inch hose flows more gas and is better for heavy cutting and heating.

The ESAB 571F73 is 25.5 feet long.

The Green line is for Oxygen, and the Red line is for the Fuel gas (Acetylene). The fittings are also threaded differently (Fuel has left-hand threads) to prevent cross-connection.

Likely not directly. Most heavy-duty torches like the Journeyman use 'B' size fittings. This hose has 'A' size fittings. You would need adapters or a light-duty torch designed for 'A' fittings.
