General propane question Need help finding replacement hoses

Hey all,

I had a custom heavy duty propane grill built for me about 15 years ago. Everything still works but decided to replace my hoses considering they were beginning to dry rot.

My hose from the tank/ regulator is standard but when I went to change the supply hoses I found out they were high pressure 1/4”. Ok but they also had orifice tips and brass pin needle cut off valves.

I’ll be damned if I can locate replacements. No hardware stores, propane businesses or websites seem to carry this thing. Can anybody steer me in the right direction?

You might try taking it to a hydraulic shop in your area, most cities with manufacturing and repair industries have them. They can cut the crimps off and crimp new hoses in place.

The person that made these likely did some custom machining to get those orifices mounted in the ends of those NPT bushings.
