Basically just tying to finid out if the Miflex LP BCD hoses come standard with a fitting that will work with the fitting on the OMS BCD. Any help apprecitated.

Thanks

Hi George. Not familiar with either of those, however, I've never seen an LP inflator hose NOT fit a BCD or dry suit. They are about as "standard" as things get. Do you have a picture of the hose and attachment?

Cheers,

James

I believe the fitting on the end of hose coming off the 1st stage looks like this one. The connector on the inflator valve assembly has what i would define as a Flat head looking portrusion. Its an OMS wing and came with the stock inflator hose when I purchased it.

That pic eBay looks like a standard LP inflator. There's a few different LP connectors on the valve assemblies and I found a pic of the more common ones:

Nearly all inflators I've seen in recent years look like the top one, which seems to match the description you mentioon above. If so the iflator you linked on eBay should fit fine.

If the wing has a standard inflator and not one of the safe second style the miflex connector should work. Occasionally you will run into the situation of the male and female connectors being on the opposite ends of the specs and not work together but this is fairly rare.

Thaks for the feedback. Hoses come in later this week. I will post an update.. George

Just posting up that the hose did work with the OMS fitting on the OMS Wing. The reason I had brought his up is that I have come across sitatuions where rental regulator sets (which you would think are standard) did not fit my OMS wing. Thanks to everyone for their input.
