Silverline 384964 Gas Hose without Connectors - 5 m

Item as advertised. Prompt service.

A good quality replacement hose for, amongst other things, connection of a butane gas cylinder to a barbecue. Now, chances are that if you are reading this you will already have found a need for a gas hose replacement. If not then please check your gas connection hose each time that you unfurl it to connect your BBQ to the gas cylinder. I thought that I had checked my 4 year old hose as supplied with my Weber BBQ; as usual I ignited the burners and then walked away briefly to prepare the food. It was the smell of burning plastic that alerted me that all was not well. The hose had cracked near to the connection under the BBQ, and had then ignited. The flame had worked up into the control unit and the plastic knob was well alight, fed with a supply of butane. It seemed there was a chance that the flame could flash back along the hose...... I was lucky that I had located the BBQ in the open air with the cylinder a couple of metres from the BBQ itself. I was able to get to the regulator tap on the top of the butane cylinder and cut off the gas, though thinking about t afterwards I am not sure that this was the best course of action, but you just act instinctively don't you? A wet cloth dealt with the burning plastic (although I did have an extinguisher standing by), but even so the BBQ itself - a £400 investment - was written off. I consider myself very lucky in the circumstances - if the BBQ had been in a covered area, if the fire had spread as I hadn't caught it early or if I hadn't been able to isolate the gas, the outcome could have been so different. So please, check that hose (particularly by the connection clips) - bend and stretch it to make sure there are no cracks. And if you need a replacement then this is a good hose to go for, reusing your existing regulator and connection clips if they are ok. And don't leave your BBQ unattended for a moment, even if you think it's quite safe. Chances are it's not. I'll be a lot more vigilant in future.

Came promptly. It's a gas flexible pipe, does exactly what it needs to do. Nice and flexible. Time will tell on how flexible it stays.

Bought the 5m one in July 2019 for an outdoor caravan grille and its been great. Its still supple and no cracks but I've just realised these need replacing every 5 years (from the date of manufacture on the pipe!) so just ordered another.

Good quality

It wasn't what I thought it was but it will be used quality is fantastic nothing wrong with it good if your gas hose is getting tired and cracked on a large propane bottle gas gun for plumbers .

Great stuff. Just what I needed, arrived the next day and was ready to fit. Tbh I could have done with a 1m length but the price in comparison to shorter lengths was better and it was very easy to connect. My bbq is working fine now after the original hose started to leak butane.

The pipe is very stiff even at room temperature (22degC) and despite being heating with hot water still very difficult to fit to the regulator. The outer sheath is easily marked when fitting pipe to regulator or cooker, damged even by just a finger nail. I am concerned that the pipe is considerably less flexible than the pipe it replaces and may only give a very short life

Para lo que es una manguera para el gas, perfecto.

Slecht artikel, droogt al na een paar weken uit. Ik heb snel een andere gekocht bij de bouwmarkt.

Är ju något år gammal men fyller sin funktion

Sehr Gut und schnell geliefert

A distanza di 2 anni, il tubo che non è mai stato esposto al sole e conservato in luogo chiuso, si è completamente fessurato
