OVERVIEW

Lightweight Hose for Precision Work

Tired of wrestling with heavy, 50-foot hoses just to do a quick job at your workbench? The 12ft Twin Oxy/Acetylene Hose (PW316-12) is the perfect solution for welders who need agility and a tidy workspace. At just 12 feet long, this hose eliminates the "spaghetti" of excess rubber on your shop floor, making it safer and easier to manage. It is the ideal length for dedicated cutting stations, art studios, or service trucks where space is at a premium and long hoses just get in the way.

Maximum Flexibility, Minimum Fatigue

When you are performing delicate brazing or intricate cutting, the drag from a heavy hose can ruin your steady hand. This hose features a 3/16-inch diameter, making it significantly lighter and more flexible than the standard 1/4-inch alternatives. This reduced weight means less wrist strain during long sessions and better control over your torch. Whether you are soldering copper pipes or doing fine detail work on a sculpture, this hose moves with you, not against you.

Ready to Connect

Getting back to work is simple with the PW316-12. It comes ready to use right out of the box with high-quality B-Size brass fittings on both ends. These are the standard fittings used on almost all medium-duty and heavy-duty torches and regulators. The threads are precision-machined for a tight, leak-free seal—remember, the red acetylene nut has left-hand threads (indicated by the notch) and the green oxygen nut has right-hand threads. Upgrade your rig with a hose that fits your workflow and experience the difference a lighter, shorter line makes.

FAQ

A 3/16" hose is lighter and more flexible, making it ideal for light-duty torches and precision work. A 1/4" hose allows for higher flow rates required for heavy-duty heating and cutting tips.

Yes, this hose comes with B-Size (9/16"-18) fittings, which are the industry standard for most regulators and torches in North America.

This hose is labeled for Oxy/Acetylene. Unless the hose jacket specifically states 'Grade T', it should be used with Acetylene only. Propane can deteriorate Grade R hoses over time.

The nut on the red (acetylene) hose is notched to indicate it has left-hand threads. This is a safety feature to prevent connecting the fuel hose to the oxygen supply.

12ft is considered a short hose, best for bench work or portable kits. For general shop use where you move around a vehicle or large assembly, a 25ft or 50ft hose is usually recommended.

You should inspect your hose for cuts, burns, cracks, or leaks before every use. Replace the hose immediately if any damage is found or if it fails a leak test.

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

Standard welding hoses are typically rated for a maximum working pressure of 200 PSI, but you should always check the printing on the hose itself for the specific rating.
