A brass hammered gas hose connects LPG regulators and appliances with crimped brass ends.
Its crimped ends cannot work loose. Therefore, it is a secure choice for cookers and ranges.
What is a brass hammered gas hose?
A brass hammered gas hose is a flexible gas hose with brass end fittings that are crimped, or hammered, onto the hose. The fixed ends make a stronger joint than a hose pushed over a nozzle.
It connects regulators, valves and appliances on LPG lines. Because the ends are permanently fixed, there is no clip to loosen over time.
