OVERVIEW

Professional Grade Single Line Acetylene Hose

The Hose Single Gas Red 1/4" 25 Ft B-Fitting Acetylene is a fundamental component for any oxy-fuel welding or cutting setup requiring a dedicated fuel line. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial environments, this hose is constructed from high-quality rubber compounds that provide the necessary durability and flexibility for daily use. The hose features a standard 1/4-inch inner diameter (ID), which is the industry norm for ensuring adequate gas flow to cutting torches and welding tips without experiencing significant pressure drops over the 25-foot length.

Safety and identification are paramount in welding applications. This hose is manufactured with a distinct red cover, universally recognized in the industry as the color code for fuel gases. This visual cue helps prevent dangerous cross-connections and ensures operators can quickly trace lines in cluttered workspaces. The hose is terminated with factory-crimped B-size brass fittings. These fittings utilize the standard 9/16"-18 Left-Hand (LH) threads, which are mechanically designed to prevent accidental connection to oxygen regulators or equipment, adding an essential layer of safety to your operations.

Unlike twin-line hoses (siamese hoses) where oxygen and fuel lines are bonded together, this single-line configuration offers unique advantages. It is ideal for setups where gas cylinders are stored in separate locations or for replacing a damaged fuel line without the expense of replacing the entire twin assembly. The 25-foot length strikes a balance between portability and reach, allowing the operator to move freely around large workpieces or fixtures without constantly repositioning the gas cylinders. Whether used for maintenance, repair, or fabrication, this acetylene hose delivers reliable performance and secure gas delivery.

FAQ

This hose comes with standard 'B-size' fittings, which are 9/16"-18 threads. Since it is for acetylene (fuel gas), the threads are Left-Handed to prevent accidental connection to oxygen equipment.

Generally, red hoses marked for Acetylene are Grade R, which is not recommended for Propane. Propane can degrade Grade R rubber over time. For Propane, you should look for Grade T hose.

This is a single line hose. It contains only one hose for the fuel gas, not two bonded together.

The inner diameter (ID) is 1/4 inch, which is a standard size for most industrial welding and cutting torches.

In the welding industry, red is the universal color code for fuel gases (like acetylene), while green is used for oxygen. This helps operators quickly identify lines for safety.

The hose is reversible; both ends have the same B-size Left-Hand fittings. You can connect either end to the regulator or the torch.

Standard acetylene hoses are typically rated for a working pressure of 200 PSI, although acetylene itself is never used above 15 PSI for safety reasons.
