Conti-tech 10mm Bore Blue Oxygen Hose x 2m long with G3/8" BSP Fittings
High quality standard Copnti-tech oxygen hose in a 2 meter length.
This particular hose is designed for higher flow operations where large cutting thickness or other process nozzles will be used. Typically 10mm bore hose is the largest 'standard' hose available. This oxy hose is supplied with 3/8" BSP right hand nut for connection to your flash back arrestor and a 3/8" BSP hose check valve (HCV) for connection to the oxygen inlet on your torch.
Noz-Alls supply European hose with our own designed hose check valve - the reason for this is that many HCVs supplied with hoses from even some of the most reputable manufacturers are not leak free. Our HCVs are all 100% tested in Cheltenham and are tested to ensure they are leak free from 6 millibar (0.087 psi).
Many of the common size hoses we will supply with hose crippings as made by the hose manufacturer but we also carry unfitted hose coils to make hoses up to order. When making a hose up ourselves we use the best O clip on the market. The Oetiker stainless steel single ear O clip with tongue which offers a full 360 degree seal around the head of the nipple. We only use Knippex original pliers to tighten these O clips, put simply, the proper tool for the job.
Many suppliers of hoses are not fully aware of the BS EN standards with regards to the fittings that should be used. Our hoses are all fitted with nuts that conform to the correct standard and nipples / hose tails that are of the correct design, i.e. an oversized barb which usually requires the hose to be heated to push on. Theoretically once fitted they should not leak even without an O clip. Other nipples that get used simple slide into the hose and rely on the crimp or the clip to keep the hose attached.
