HOSRH-2403 - 50ft Grade R Oxy-Acetylene Twin Hose, 3/8 Inch Diameter

Heavy-Duty Grade R Oxy-Acetylene Hose

The HOSRH-2403 Twin Hose Grade R 50Ft 3/8 is a premium solution for professional welders and fabricators requiring high-volume gas delivery for oxy-acetylene operations. Unlike standard 1/4-inch hoses, this heavy-duty hose features a larger 3/8-inch inner diameter. This increased size is critical when operating large heating tips (rosebuds) or heavy-duty cutting torches that demand significant gas flow to maintain a stable flame and prevent starvation. Without adequate flow, large tips can overheat or backfire; this hose ensures your equipment performs at its peak potential.

Constructed from durable rubber, this Grade R hose is specifically engineered for use with Acetylene gas only. It features the industry-standard color coding system—Green for Oxygen and Red for Fuel (Acetylene)—to ensure safe setup and operation. The hose comes fully assembled with standard "B" size brass fittings (9/16"-18 threads), making it ready to connect immediately to most industrial regulators and torch handles. The 50-foot length offers excellent versatility, allowing operators to move freely around large workpieces or structural assemblies without constantly relocating gas cylinders.

While Grade R hose is an economical and effective choice for acetylene, it is important to note that it is not compatible with alternate fuels like Propane, Natural Gas, or MAPP gas, which require Grade T hose. For dedicated acetylene setups, however, the HOSRH-2403 offers the perfect balance of durability, flexibility, and flow capacity. Its robust outer cover resists abrasion, sparks, and oil found in typical shop environments, ensuring a long service life under rigorous use.
