Welcome to SMF. Have you checked Tractor supply or a hardware store for a longer hose?

 

[Brokenhandle]

Yep, a good place to start with smokin peachey said. Sometimes hard to find exactly what you need depending on how well stocked the store is and how knowledgeable they are.

no sorry i havent because we dont really have a place like that for UK



i did however check and email loads of companies but no one know what connection this is

i did however buy this item originally from US thats why i thought it might be a good idea to ask here

many thanks

You could also try a shop that makes hydronic hoses they might be able to make you a hose.

if i can find a store for US i can ask if they will ship internationally but so far i havent found anywhere



this is for a wok burner but i look everywhere but i find nothing

Yes i will try this as i have only been emailing companies who do bbq's so far no one knows

Where are you located? Have you tried searching the internet for wok burner parts?

The connection fitting is an orifice nozzle. The small hole is metered and the diameter is precise. this the the jet where the propane or natural gas flows into the venturi of the burner to mix with air prior to coming out of the jets for combustion.

You can buy orifice nozzles online...Tejas smokers has them, but you need to know what size the one you have is....they also have longer hoses so you can just change out the one you have..

Take fitting to propane dealer. They have books with 1000's of fittings, they could order for you

Yes your right its from a wok burner

 

[indaswamp]

That complete hose, regulator, and fittings can be used on a number of different burners, it's the orifice that determines the amount of gas and hence the number of BTU's the burner will have.

Something like this would be easiest if you are just looking for a longer hose, can get shorter ones too

A propane store that refills and services tanks. Take it with you.

Yes i agree would be a good idea and easier, but if you look at images i posted you will see its got a connector which isnt like the one you posted unless there is an adaptor?

Indaswamp might be right, but the end with the orifice looks to me like a straight, not a tapered thread. It appears to seal on the burner/orifice end with an O-ring slightly larger than the orifice insert, so the threads needn't be tapered to create a seal.

So I'd assume that end could be any weird thread and proprietary connector, so take good care of it...might be hard to replace. But the other end of that short brass burner fitting is almost certainly 1/4 NPT female. So you really just need an extension from 1/4 NPT male to female, in the added length you want, to insert between your hose and the somewhat unique brass fitting with the orifice.

Will 5-foot do the trick? Note male-to-male hose is much more common so a 1/4 NPT coupling will be needed if you get one of those.
