High pressure Co2 hose

I have a dual regulator with a remote high pressure hose. Unfortunately, I found
the hose to have many pinhole leaks - it loses 200psi in 8 hours (from the hose.)

I can't figure out how I could seal the pinhole leaks, so I guess I need a new hose.
The one I have is 6 feet, but is a little long for use in a 1/2 barrel kegerator.
Does anyone know if you can get these shorter ?

Any other thoughts ?

 

Probably your local homebrew store

 

What kind of hose are you using that can handle >800psi? I would just hard plumb it with 1/4" flexible copper and compression fittings.

 

If your LHBS (or some other business you know) has an account with Foxx Equipment the part numbers are:

6' High Pressure Regulator to Cylinder Hose (rated for 2750psi)

Find a local Hydraulic Hose company and give them a call. They should be able to make what you need.

 

Or a paintball shop! some of the refill systems require hoses rated at over 6000psi
Not sure why you need full pressure for your system however...

 

After re-reading this, how do you know it's the actual hose that is leaking and not the connections?

 

I pressurized the regulator and the hoses to the ball lock connectors individually (there
are two regulators.) Both leaked about the same rate. I then pressurized the regulator but
left the regulators at zero pressure. It leaked at the same rate.

I took the entire regulator and dunked it into a cooler filled with water.
Had a homebrew and waited for bubbles to appear..........

Nothing but trapped air that I brushed off with my hand. Then I replaced the regulator
with the co2 tank and waited for bubbles...........

Nothing happened. So I replaced the co2 tank with just the hose (most of it.)
In several places I saw pin sized bubbles slowly appear.

Thus I conclude the hose is the leaker.
