Propane Gas Hoses

Enhance your safety and your reliability with our selection of Propane Gas Hoses

Even if propane is a versatile fuel, it demands a specific and purpose-built hose. This is why you should not compromise the quality of these pieces of equipment. Our selection of Propane Gas Hoses has been selected with our partner Parweld,  a leading  manufacturer in the welding industry, their gas hoses are both flexible for a mobile rig and robust enough for demanding site work.

Technical Specifications & UK Industry Standards

When selecting a propane gas hose, durability and safety are paramount. Our range of hoses is engineered to meet the most stringent demands of professional welding and heating environments, providing both reliability and peace of mind.

Materials and Construction:

Engweld’s propane gas hoses are constructed with a robust, multi-layered design for maximum performance and longevity.

• Inner Tube: The core of the hose is a black nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) compound. This material is specifically chosen for its exceptional resistance to the corrosive and permeating effects of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), including propane, ensuring the integrity of the gas flow over time.
• Reinforcement: To prevent kinking and withstand high pressure, the hose is reinforced with high-tensile synthetic textile plies. This woven layer provides the structural strength needed to handle the pressures of both welding and cutting applications without deforming.
• Outer Cover: The hose is protected by a tough, weather-resistant synthetic rubber outer cover. This durable exterior provides excellent protection against abrasion, oil, and ozone, which are common hazards on a work site or in a busy workshop.

Safety & Compliance:

All of our propane gas hoses comply with the rigorous safety standards required for professional use in the UK and Europe.

• BS EN ISO 3821: Our hoses are manufactured to the BS EN ISO 3821 standard, which specifies the requirements for rubber hoses used in welding, cutting, and allied processes. This certification guarantees the hose is fit for purpose and has undergone rigorous testing to ensure it can safely transport flammable gases.
• Colour Coding: In line with UK and European industry standards, all our propane gas hoses are easily identifiable by their bright orange colour. This clear colour coding is essential for workplace safety, preventing accidental misuse and ensuring the correct gas is connected to the right equipment.

Pressure Ratings & Dimensions:

Understanding the technical specifications of your hose is crucial for safe operation.

• Working Pressure (WP): Our hoses are rated for a typical working pressure of 20 Bar (290 PSI), making them suitable for most standard propane gas applications.
• Burst Pressure (BP): A safety-critical metric, the burst pressure is typically 60 Bar (870 PSI). This rating ensures the hose can handle unexpected pressure surges far beyond its normal operating conditions.
• Common Dimensions: We stock a range of hose diameters, including the most common sizes used in the industry. Be sure to select the correct size, such as 6mm, 8mm, or 10mm, to ensure a secure and compatible fit with your propane and butane gas regulators and torches.

Applications & Versatility

Propane is a versatile fuel source and a high-quality propane hose is essential for connecting your gas supply to a wide variety of tools and equipment. While a critical component for welding and cutting, its uses extend far beyond the workshop.

Our hoses are perfect for:

• Oxy-Propane Cutting: Providing a reliable and safe connection for cutting torches used in metal fabrication and demolition.
• Heating Applications: Supplying gas to propane burners for pre-heating large metal workpieces or providing efficient space heating in a workshop or on a construction site.
• Brazing & Soldering: Offering a secure link to hand torches for precision work on a range of materials.
