I have a KISS but I have been informed that loop hose weights for Draeger hoses will fit the KISS standard ones, anyone help with a supplier in the UK?

All of these hose weights will work:Originally Posted by JohnDuncan
So whichever easiest to get...
- Draeger
- AP Valve
- Oxycheq (ring)
Someone posted a recommendation on welded rings from mcmaster carr. They wind up being about $2.00 each. About 10 per pound. They work great. I cant find the post, but when I get home I can post the item number.Originally Posted by decoweenie

Buying rings from Golem/Oxycheq might come out cheaper. Don't know about the freight.
Right you are Ken. I bought those And the oxy ones. The McMC's are thicker, heavier, and IMHO nicer.Originally Posted by Ken
I was tols that the AP ones might damage the hoses as they are slightly different sizeOriginally Posted by decoweenie

Darn...I should have marketed the McMaster rings as Ken specials and made .10 off of each.:p
and 11 others inc. a UT-240
Expensive in comparison but nearly trade for the UK ex delivery.
