No. The longest we make is 600mm. This is the longest hose that is allowed to be installed according to Australian Standards.
The type 27 pigtails must be supplied instead of the POL connections after April 2022 on new appliances. Old pol pigtails can continue to be used on old installations until they are replaced.
A new cylinder should be purchased as a replacement with the correct type 27 valve.
No. Only 4kg-9kg cylinders with this type 27 valve will work with this pigtail. Larger cylinders still only require the normal POL connections.
These new valves significantly reduce the chance of incorrectly connecting the hose to the gas bottle allowing gas to escape and causing a potential fire risk. They do not allow gas to escape without a correctly installed compatible hose.
Bromic gas hoses are categorised into Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D based on their maximum working pressure and temperature range below.
| Class | Typical Application | Max. Working Pressure @ 23°C +/- 2°C | Working Temperature Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | Low pressure appliance hose | 14 kPa | -20°C to +65°C |
| B | Low pressure, high temperature appliance hose | 14 kPa | -20°C to +125°C |
| C | High pressure appliance and gas tool hose | 2600 kPa | -20°C to +65°C |
| D | High pressure, high temperature appliance and gas tool hose | 2600 kPa | -20°C to +125°C |
We do not recommend using hose extensions as adding an extra hose on the line will increase the chance of a leak and/or breakage. Instead, replace the hose with a longer hose. At Bromic, we supply gas hoses up to 3000mm in length.
In Australia, the Type 21 (POL) connection has been superseded by the LCC27 (Type 27) connection. LCC27 is now the standard connection used for leisure gas cylinder valves. Over a 10-year period, LCC27 will be phased in as old gas cylinders get re-tested and changed over. Read more
If a customer purchases a new appliance with a new LCC27 hose connection, they will need to replace or swap their old LPG cylinder to a new one with an LCC27 (Type 27) valve. If a customer purchases a new cylinder with an LCC27 valve, they can still connect it with an LPG appliance (or hose assembly) that has the old POL connection as it is backwards compatible.
For more information on Australia’s new standard LCC27 (Type 27) connection, read our full blog post here.
