OVERVIEW

Lightweight Flexibility for Precision Torch Work

When you are performing delicate brazing, jewelry repair, or light-duty welding, the last thing you want is a heavy, stiff hose fighting against your hand movements. This 3/16-inch Red Acetylene Hose is the perfect solution for welders who need maximum control and minimal fatigue. The smaller diameter makes this hose significantly lighter and more flexible than standard 1/4-inch or 3/8-inch hoses, allowing you to manipulate your torch with ease and precision. At 12 feet in length, it offers the perfect balance of reach for your workbench without cluttering your space with unnecessary coils of rubber.

Ready to Connect with "A" Size Fittings
Forget about hunting for adapters or crimping your own lines. This hose comes ready to work right out of the package, fitted with "A" size connections (3/8"-24 threads). These smaller fittings are standard on many aircraft-style torches and lightweight brazing handles. The nuts are left-hand threaded—standard for fuel gases—to keep your setup safe and compliant. Please check your torch and regulator outlets to ensure they accept "A" size fittings before purchasing, as these are smaller than the standard "B" fittings found on heavy-duty gear.

Built for Durability
We know that hoses take a beating in the shop. That is why this assembly includes heavy-duty spring strain reliefs on both ends. These springs protect the hose where it is most vulnerable—right at the fitting. By preventing sharp bends and kinks, the strain reliefs ensure smooth gas flow and stop the rubber from cracking prematurely. Whether you are a hobbyist, an HVAC technician, or a metal artist, this red acetylene hose delivers the reliability and performance you need to focus on your flame.

FAQ

"A" fittings are smaller with 3/8"-24 threads, typically used on light-duty torches. "B" fittings are larger with 9/16"-18 threads, used on standard industrial equipment.

This hose is designated for Acetylene (Grade R). For Propane or MAPP gas, it is recommended to use Grade T hose to prevent degradation of the rubber lining.

The hose has an internal diameter (ID) of 3/16 inch.

Yes, it comes pre-assembled with "A" size fittings and spring strain reliefs on both ends.

In the welding industry, red is the standard color code for fuel gas hoses (like acetylene) to distinguish them from green oxygen hoses.

The springs act as strain relief to prevent the hose from kinking or cracking at the connection point, extending the life of the hose.

This is a single line hose intended for Acetylene gas only.
