This Coast to Coast 8mm S/S Flexible Hose 450mm slots into a single bottle LPG setup and links the cylinder to the rest of the gear over a compact 450mm run. The 8mm internal size keeps the gas path consistent while still fitting tight caravan gas lockers. The avalanche valve with 1/4 inch BSPT male thread hooks into standard regulators used on many single bottle kits, so you can get out there with a tidy layout. The hose uses stainless steel construction with a braided outer that is built tough for bumps and vibration on Aussie roads. The 450mm length suits A-frame and locker mounts where extra slack would just snag or kink. The stainless finish stands up to moisture, dust and road grime from the bush to the beach. The fittings use the proven avalanche valve format and 1/4 inch BSPT thread, which makes this hose a smart buy for replacing tired pigtails.

Q: Can this hose be used with any LPG regulator that has a 1/4" BSPT inlet?

Yes, it connects to regulators with a 1/4" BSPT female port. The hose end uses an avalanche valve with a 1/4" BSPT male thread, so it mates with the matching female thread. Always check your regulator thread size before ordering. A licensed gas fitter should confirm compatibility and handle the installation.

Q: Is this hose suitable for use on both caravans and motorhomes?

Yes, as long as the system is a single bottle setup that suits an 8mm hose. The 450mm length works in many caravan drawbar lockers and motorhome gas compartments. Space and routing still need to be checked on your specific setup. Your gas fitter can confirm that the hose length and fittings suit your installation.

Q: How often should this stainless steel gas hose be inspected?

It should be inspected regularly as part of your normal LPG safety checks. Visual checks before trips help pick up damage to the stainless braid or fittings. A licensed gas fitter should carry out more detailed inspections at service intervals. Any sign of wear, kinks or corrosion means the hose should be replaced.

Q: Can I cut this 450mm hose shorter to fit my locker?

No, this hose is not intended to be cut or modified. Altering the length or fittings would affect its integrity and could make the setup unsafe. If 450mm is too long or too short, you should choose a hose that comes in the correct length. A gas fitter can advise on the right size for your locker and regulator position.
