Bayou Classic Hose has a hole in it can it be fixed?

[DPB]

Burnt a hole in my propane hose of my Bayou Classic burner on it's first use. Can it be salvaged? Can I just replace the hose and hook it up to the 30 psi regulator although it looks like you would need a special compression clamping tool in order to do this. Would tape suffice (it is a rather large hole 2 inches). Thanks for the help.

cut it then install a barbed nipple. secure with hose clamps.

You could do the hose clamp thing. Personally I'd invest in the stainless steel version of the hose for added safety so you don't do that again.

Both great ideas. I didn't know they had stainless propane hoses. Thanks again.

Perhaps to finish a batch in an emergency fashion...long term I would seek a better method as discussed above.

Tape a propane hose? 30 psi? What kind of tape are you planning on using?
