Important - Read This First - Diving Hoses

Standard and Miflex Diving Hoses

We now offer three different classes of hoses for scuba: Phantom brand hoses; Miflex brand hoses, and quality generic hoses. We offer all three classes in all three different types of application: High Pressure for SPG's, BC Inflator, and LP Regulator. In addition to popular sport-diving hoses in a variety of lengths and fittings, we stock hard-to-find technical diving hoses such as seven-foot regulator second-stage hoses, 22-inch low-pressure inflator hoses, and 6-inch high-pressure hoses. All our hoses are suitable for use with any mixture of air, nitrox, trimix or pure oxygen customarily used in diving applications. LOOK CAREFULLY to make sure you are ordering the hose you seek, we offer so many combinations of classes, types and lengths on this page it is easy to make a mistake.

Choosing between these hoses can be confusing so we offer some analysis: The generic standard rubber diving hose is what you might expect and has been around, pretty much unchanged other than modest improvements in quality, since the beginning of modern scuba. We carry a high quality standard rubber hose made in the US. A more recent innovation is double braided polyester hoses, these are a considerable improvement over the standard rubber hoses. Phantom Hose Tied in a Knot The double braided hoses are more flexible, stronger and weigh less than standard rubber hoses but most importantly they are more durable. We carry two different brands of double braided hoses: Miflex (made in Europe with CE approval) and Phantom (made in Asia, no CE mark). The Miflex brand hoses have been imported in to the US for a couple years and have been extremely well received, but are quite expensive when compared to standard hoses. The Phantom brand hoses are just now being imported into the US, but have been in other markets for several years, and are much more attractively priced than the Miflex. The Miflex includes premium packaging in a nice reusble dry pouch. The kevlar reinforced high pressure Phantom hose is a typical thickness that works better in boots and consoles, the Miflex HP hose is ultra thin and lacks the kevlar reinforcement. It's too early for a final recommendation, but currently we can't find any significant differences in quality between the two brands. We think double braided hoses are the future and will likely become the new standard for scuba hoses, completely supplanting the rubber hoses.

> Phantom High Pressure Kevlar Double Braided Hoses

Phantom double braided high pressure hoses have an outer polyester braided cover that is laid over a woven Kevlar layer The Phantom double braided high pressure hose has a typical outside diameter that works better with hose boots and consoles. Every Phantom double braided high pressure hose is tested to 5000 psi and a rated burst strength of 22000 PSI. Fittings are made from quality chrome-plated brass. The typical high-pressure hose is a 7/16-inch male at the end that screws into the first stage HP port and a 7/16-inch female at the end that screws on to the SPG. Length is measured in inches, from end to end of hose, including the fittings and their threads.

The typical low-pressure regulator hose is a 3/8-inch male at the end that screws into the first stage LP port, and at the other end you'll find a 9/16-inch female that screws onto the second stage regulator body. Length is measured in inches, from end to end of hose, including the fittings and their threads.

Choosing the Best Regulator Hose Length

The most common hose length found on the primary SCUBA regulator is about 28 to 30 inches. For many divers, this hose is too long and will cause the hose to "bow out", create unnecessary drag and tug on the mouth making for an uncomfortable dive, particularly in current.

Some divers prefer the slightly shorter hose length of 22 inches as being more comfortable with less drag and pull, but most solve this problem with a very long primary hose. Also the 22-inch hose is the preferred length with the backup regulator for those divers who use their primary regulator with a long hose.

The 40 inch hose is the common choice for the alternate second stage used on most sport diving "octopus" regulator configurations. The 40 inch hose is also the recommended length for stage and deco regulators as well. The 36 inch hose is a more managable length for divers who carry small pony or "bailout" bottles for their personal use.

Many advanced divers and instructors believe the common hose lengths are too short in out-of-air situations and now use a much longer hose, often 60 inches (5 feet) for those who dive open water exclusively. Technical divers have adopted a minimum length of 84 inches (7 feet) for overhead environments, and in some exceptional circumstances even use 108 inch (9 feet) long hoses.

Miflex XTREME Diving Hoses

Comparison of Standard and Miflex XTREME Diving Hoses The Miflex XTREME high performance range of diving hoses are receiving a great deal of interest from experienced sport and technical divers. A team of Miflex engineers analysed the weak points of traditional diving hoses and developed the XTREME high performance range in cooperation with expert divers for superior in-depth performance. XTREME hoses feature an external nylon safety braiding designed to resist the snags and abrasions that divers can often encounter. Unlike traditional hoses, the XTREME nylon safety braiding is not simply pushed over the hose fittings. Instead the braiding is tightly bound and fixed to the hose core by stainless steel or brass sleeves. The result is performance and durability in extreme situations. All Miflex Hoses are factory cleaned and tested for oxygen service.

Available in a variety of lengths from 6-inches to 40-inches. Note these hoses are very thin and work very well with naked SPG's. However because they are thinner than normal HP hoses they are not a snug fit in gauge boots and consoles.
