The feed hoses, which can be used to transport nitrogen, come with end fittings, providing welders with a leak-tight method of feeding noncontaminated argon gas to their weld zone. The fittings eliminate connection difficulties. The argon gas feed hoses can also be supplied to all other GTAW machines, with their own special fitting as required. The hoses are available in a standard range of lengths, including 30, 25, 20, 15, 10, and 5 m.
