OVERVIEW

Custom Lengths for the Pro Welder

Stop struggling with welding hoses that are too short or tangling with ones that are too long. With this 800-foot bulk reel of 3/16" Red Acetylene Hose, you take control of your gear. This massive spool is perfect for busy shops, field repair trucks, or anyone who goes through hose regularly. Instead of buying expensive pre-made assemblies, you can cut exactly the length you need—whether it's a specialized 10-foot whip for bench work or a 100-foot runner for working on structural beams high up in the rafters.

Why Choose 3/16"?

Many welders prefer the 3/16-inch diameter over the standard 1/4-inch because of the weight difference. When you are holding a torch all day, every ounce counts. This hose is significantly lighter and more flexible, which means less drag on your wrist and less fatigue by the end of the shift. It provides plenty of flow for most cutting and welding tips, giving you the performance you need without the bulk of a heavier line. It's the smart choice for precision work where torch control is everything.

Safety and Durability

Safety is non-negotiable when dealing with fuel gas. This hose comes in the industry-standard red color, so you always know it's your fuel line. The durable outer jacket is built to withstand the sparks, dirt, and dragging that happen in a real shop environment. It resists kinking, so your gas flow stays steady, and your flame stays true. Remember, this is a single line for Acetylene—pair it with a matching Oxygen line and use proper B-size fittings to build a custom twin-line set or separate runners tailored to your specific setup.

Value and Convenience

Buying in bulk is the smartest way to save money on consumables. This 800-foot reel ensures you are never caught empty-handed when a hose springs a leak or gets damaged. You can repair or replace lines instantly, keeping your downtime to a minimum. It's an essential investment for any serious fabrication business looking to optimize their workflow and equipment maintenance.

FAQ

The inner diameter is 3/16 inch, which is a standard size for lightweight and flexible welding hoses.

This hose is specified for Acetylene. For Propane or other fuel gases, it is recommended to use Grade T hose which has higher oil resistance. Always check the hose rating printed on the jacket.

You will need B-size (CGA 022/023) nuts and nipples sized for 3/16" ID hose, along with the appropriate ferrules for crimping.

Red is the universal color code for fuel gas hoses in the welding industry, distinguishing it from green oxygen hoses for safety.

This is a single line hose. It contains only the red acetylene line, not the oxygen line.

The reel contains 800 feet of continuous hose.

It depends on the application. 3/16" is lighter and more flexible, reducing fatigue, while 1/4" allows for higher flow rates for very large cutting tips.

No, this is a bulk reel. You must cut the hose to length and install your own fittings.
