  Product Description
This Cadac 3M Gas Hose and Clamps Kit gives you a reliable way to connect your camping stove, barbecue or gas heater to any low-pressure LPG regulator. The 3-metre length of 8mm diameter hose works with propane, butane and Campingaz regulators, which covers most gas setups you'll encounter when camping, caravanning or using outdoor appliances at home. The extra length compared to standard 1-metre hoses means you get more flexibility when positioning your gas bottle away from cooking areas or when working around awkward spaces on site.

The kit includes two hand-tighten clamps that secure the hose connections without needing tools. These screw-type clips grip the hose ends firmly once you've pushed them onto the regulator outlet and appliance inlet, creating a gas-tight seal. The PVC construction handles regular outdoor use and temperature changes well enough for seasonal camping, though you'll want to check the hose for cracks or wear each season as PVC does age faster than rubber alternatives in constant UV exposure.

Most caravanners and campers need this type of hose when their original equipment hose becomes damaged or when they're connecting appliances that didn't come with one. The 8mm bore size is standard for UK camping gas equipment, so it fits the majority of portable stoves, barbecues and patio heaters sold here. You'll find this kit particularly useful when replacing worn hoses on older equipment or when setting up multiple appliances from a single gas bottle using a splitter manifold.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this 8mm gas hose fit my camping stove regulator?
This Cadac gas hose fits any UK low-pressure LPG regulator with an 8mm outlet, which is the standard size for camping equipment sold in Britain. The hose connects to propane regulators, butane regulators and Campingaz regulators commonly used with portable stoves, barbecues and heaters. Check your regulator outlet measures 8mm in diameter before ordering, as some older continental equipment uses different bore sizes.
How do the hand-tighten clamps work on this gas hose kit?
The hand-tighten clamps are screw-type jubilee clips that you fit over each end of the gas hose before pushing the hose onto your regulator and appliance connections. You then turn the screw mechanism by hand to tighten the metal band around the hose, which compresses it onto the fitting to create a gas-tight seal. No tools are needed, though a screwdriver can help achieve a firmer grip if you prefer extra security.
Is 3 metres long enough for a typical caravan or motorhome setup?
A 3-metre gas hose length works for most external camping setups where you position a gas bottle near your cooking area. For permanent caravan or motorhome installations where the gas locker sits at the front and your cooker is midway through the vehicle, you typically need a longer run of copper pipe or armoured hose built into the gas system. This Cadac hose suits portable appliances, patio heaters, camping stoves and external barbecues where the gas bottle sits within a few metres of the appliance.
How often should I replace this PVC gas hose?
Gas safety regulations recommend inspecting PVC gas hoses every 12 months and replacing them every 5 years, though many caravanners replace theirs more frequently. Check the hose before each camping season for cracks, splits, hardening or perishing, particularly where it connects to fittings. UV exposure, temperature extremes and general wear cause PVC to degrade faster than rubber hoses, so store your hose away from direct sunlight when not in use and replace it immediately if you spot any damage.
Can I use this hose with both propane and butane gas bottles?
This gas hose connects to the outlet side of your regulator, not directly to the gas bottle, so it works with any low-pressure regulator regardless of whether you use propane or butane. You fit the appropriate regulator to your gas bottle (propane regulators have red markings, butane regulators have blue markings), then connect this hose between the regulator outlet and your appliance. The hose itself does not differentiate between gas types since it only handles gas that has already passed through the pressure regulator.
What size spanner or screwdriver do I need to tighten the clamps?
The hand-tighten clamps included in this Cadac kit have a thumb screw mechanism designed to tighten by hand without tools. The screw head accepts a flathead screwdriver if you want additional tightening force, typically a medium-sized flat blade around 5-6mm wide. You do not need a spanner for these particular clamps since they use a worm drive mechanism rather than hexagonal nuts.
