Purchased a used ScubaPro pilot but it didn’t come with a LP hose. Could I just purchase any LP hose or would it have to be a very specific one?

Also what length would the lp hose be? I’m looking at some lp hoses offered by deep 6. Would a 27inch deep 6 LP hose work for my scuba pro pilot bcd?

You don’t want an LP hose, you want a BC inflator hose. Different fitting. 27” sounds long to me, but I’d put it on a tank and measure it to be sure.

It uses a standard low pressure inflator hose aka BC inflator hose. For example: BC Inflator Rubber Hose

BTW, please get the BCD checked out by a shop or technician.

I actually bought it from a shop. Unfortunately owner passed away and wife did a close out sale today. The BCD came from them and they tested it and everything else purchased. I could’ve gotten the hose for free most likely but I forgot to ask now it’s too late to go back.

BC LP HOSE RUBBER, 27", BLACK - would this work? For some reason it says bc lp hose but has a small litttle red nub in the edge that looks different than usual bc hoses. Would this be incorrect in that case?

The red piece is just a cover to protect it from stuff getting in it while its not connected to a first stage. Its not actually part of the hose and pops off.
