Where do you all get the red hose for gas? And what is the spec on it?

I got mine at Midwest Supplies:

Gas Line :: Midwest Supplies Homebrewing and Winemaking Supplies

It's 5/16 ID, but beyond that I have no idea what the specs of the hose are.

Micromatic: 5/16" I.D. Beer Line Hose
Red and blue both available. Also comes in certain other sizes. Me, I use the super-cheap thin stuff from Austin Homebrew. It flexes better, and I can "hide" it in the fridge easier, even when stiff and cold.

I went with this stuff here for gas just for the convenience of getting it along with all the fittings I needed for a much lower price than midwest supplies.
NORTHERN BREWER: Tubing

The description makes it sound like it should work for gas.
"5/16" Beverage Tubing. Large-diameter tubing is typically found in commercial installations. This tubing fits nicely over the gas-in sides of our commercial beer taps. Sold per foot."
I'm assuming it's ok for gas because of the thick wall.
