The first stages of modern SCUBA regulators have 7/16-inch female 'High-Pressure Ports' and every analog submersible pressure gauge (SPG) uses a 7/16-inch male fitting that mates with a female swivel fitting on the other end of the HP hose. These fittings are very standardized and are almost certainly compatible with these same fittings on our HP hoses. Some early vintage (perhaps better described as 'antique') first stages have the high-pressure port size same as a 3/8-inch low-pressure port, but these are extremely uncommon (and dangerous.) For these rare exceptions we stock first stage port adapters.

All submersible pressure gauges also use an air spool with two tiny #003 O-rings to connect the male gauge fitting to the swivel connector on the HP hose female fitting. We always recommend replacing the air spool, or at least the O-rings, whenever you replace the HP hose. Almost all gauges use an air spool with a center flange. However, some inexpensive plastic body gauges use an air spool without the flange. If you have a plastic body gauge you will have to reuse the old air spool from the gauge with the new HP hose.

Some dive computers with an integrated digital pressure gauge, use a special proprietary quick disconnect HP hose that allows the computer to disconnect from the hose without using tools. That special hose is only available from a dealer for your dive computer. Most air integrated dive computer versions use a high-pressure quick disconnect adapter that works with a standard HP hose. Just to be clear, we are not talking about instrument console housings that contain an analog SPG, those work with a standard HP hose.
