Where on earth can I find this ?

[Steve @ TheHeatingHub]

Evening all,

I know I am not the most active person here but would really appericate it if you guys could help me out finding out where to get this hose.

I am after a rubber hose with a internal bore of 12mm I guess. I work with several guys that have these hose but they have them from there old gas board days and have no idea where to get them from.

They are orange in colour and a soft rubber material (like the u gauge rubber) I have looked high and low and cannot for the life of me find one.


Regin seem to do one but its 60quid for a 10m length with is way over the top.


Any help would be great

what you using it for?

 

[Steve @ TheHeatingHub]

I guess that would help

I just want it for draining down, it doesn't kink and easy to store unlike my green hose.

i was talking to my mate last week about this stuff, i think its the same as airline hose available at said suppliers?.

ive got a yellow food quality hose from a commercial heating merchants as i didnt pay for It i cant even guess how much it cost but it is good doesnt kink rolls up easy only downside is you have to use a juilee clip on domestic DOC'S

are you fishing steve?

now infact i know it is airline, i have some on my industrial tyre inflater. dark orange colour with braid in middle.

 

[Steve @ TheHeatingHub]

its not a airline hose im pretty sure as it does not withstand much pressure. It is only good for draining down not for sticking on mains for power flushing.

I found some 8mm bunser burner hose which kinda looks the same in the pics but cannot seem to find 12mm.

i did a search and found a place that does it (cant remember where now ) but its very expensive !

Ferschl Hose and Hydraulics, or any hose, hydraulic and pneumatics supplier.

You only want a few metres rather than a whole reel and must places like that you can buy by the metre.

if its 12mm internal sounds like european lpg hose

I use the Monument tools gas gauges their pie sound similar they make gauges and might be able to supply a hose.
