Help Gas rubber hose

[Jdieiejdjaow]

They've delayed to the point where I had to ask for a refund and once I did they replied immediately, and I mean immediately. Found a replacement though, though it says its for barbeque.

Can someone help me know if it's fit for N2 method with argon flow meter? I reason it's just a hose and as long as id matches, there shouldn't be any problems, though I want to avoid any surprises.

More details here:

Exit bag and inert gas megathread

I see. What about tachycardia? Yes but that is why I wanted to try it to see what it was like. Not a big issue. I plan to zip tie my hands so that if SI kicks in, I can't take the bag off.

I would say any hose would work....rubber, vinyl, etc.
Correct, as long as the ID works fine, doesnt really matter what type of hose.
The only issue I can think of, is the ability of using a hose clamp. But your photo of the hose in the link, it shows a hose clamp.
So a rubber hose like you posted will work fine.
Just test it out obviously....to find any leaks.

It should work long as ID is correct and fits barb correctly. Nitrogen is inert so any material should be fine. That hose looks really "heavy", like in heavy-duty. I wasn't expecting something that robust.

I hope it's only the way it is presented. Last thing I'd want is for the rubber hose cutter not able to cut it. They do advertise the hose is made out of rubber. It may be, though, it's reinforced.

The rubber hose you show is similar to what is already used for a gas regulator used for welding.
The only difference is usually those rubber hoses have threaded connection fittings on the ends.
If your hose clamp works with the rubber hose & barb, then it shouldnt be an issue.
When you get the system together, please post a photo. Its good for others to see how they look assembled.

Of course it will cut it. My comment was just more a reflection of what I was thinking in that a piece of clear vinyl hose would have sufficed. It's not like there's any real pressure that will be going through it. It's all good. Whatever works.

Thanks all. That brings ease to my mind. Very grateful.
