The 12/16 – Hosetail is a practical and durable PEX gas fitting designed for professional LPG gas installations where a flexible gas hose connection is required. This fitting allows installers to securely connect PEX gas piping to approved LPG gas hoses, making it ideal for appliance connections that require flexibility or vibration tolerance.
Manufactured for strength and long-term reliability, the hosetail fitting provides a secure transition between rigid PEX gas pipe and flexible hose assemblies. It is commonly used in installations for gas stoves, gas hobs, gas geysers, gas heaters, gas fireplaces, and other LPG-powered appliances where movement or servicing access is required.
PEX gas systems are widely used due to their resistance to corrosion, vibration, and scale build-up. The 12/16 hosetail complements these systems by offering excellent pressure handling and temperature resistance while maintaining a tight, leak-free connection when installed correctly.
The hosetail design allows a gas hose to be firmly clamped or secured, reducing the risk of hose slippage or gas leaks. Its compact size makes it suitable for installation in confined spaces such as cupboards, behind appliances, or service cavities.
This fitting is suitable for:
– Connecting PEX gas pipe to flexible LPG hoses
– Gas stove and hob installations
– Gas geyser and water heater connections
– Gas heater and fireplace installations
– Residential and commercial gas reticulation
Whether used in new installations, maintenance work, or appliance replacements, the 1216 – Hosetail offers installers a dependable, compliant solution for flexible gas connections.
