Petroleum (LPG) Industrial Hoses | Parker | LP Gas Hose | 7170 Series

Series 7170 is a flexible, lightweight hose connector for transfer of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)/propane in barbecue grills, portable heaters, weed burning apparatus and similar appliances.The hose meets all Underwriters Laboratories (UL569) and Canadian Standards Association (CSA) requirements. The construction incorporates multiple textile plies of reinforcement for flexibility and kink resistance. The perforated cover is resistant to mild chemicals, oil and ozone.

Series 7170 and Natural Gas: The molecules of natural gas are small, enhancing their ability to permeate through standard rubber hose constructions. The permeation process is more rapid as the working pressure increases, and natural gas accumulates with potentially dangerous consquences. Series 7170 may be used for natural gas service, but ONLY under all the following conditions:

• The application must be in a well-ventilated environment, outdoors or indoors with significant continuous air movement.
• Series 7170 is not to replace fixed/rigid pipe where that material is more appropriate due to reduced permeation and overall strength and durability. Use rigid pipe, non-permeable tubing or hose with barrier constructions to convey natural gas whenever possible.

Series 7170 and Compressed Natural Gas (CNG): Series 7170 is not for use in any CNG application, including fuel dispensing, on-board fuel lines, or fuel transfer.
