GC5 - Male Gas Connector

The GC5 Male Gas Connector is a large bore, full flow adaptor for attaching to the 9/16" UNF 2nd stage inlet. This allows the Auto Air type hose to be easily connected to AP Open Circuit Bailout Mouthpiece (OCB), Auto Diluent Valve (ADV) or any 2nd stage without impeding their performance.

The Auto Air female snap connector - the GC1A (shown right) that connects to the GC5 has a standard 2nd stage thread. Therefore, to convert your OCB to use the new GC5 fitting you simply screw the GC1A female snap connector onto the end of your existing OCB supply hose. The GC1A is available on this site.

Alternatively, complete AutoAir hose assemblies are available from AP Diving (with the AutoAir snap connector and a standard 3/8" UNF first stage end) in various standard lengths, or in fact, any length you require.

Please order bespoke length hoses by telephone: 01326 563 834.

The standard length hoses are:

EV50/24 - 24" Auto Air Hose
EV50/27 - 27" Auto Air Hose
EV50/31 - 31" Auto Air Hose

Note: These hoses utilise AP's re-usable fittings which means you can adjust the hose length exactly to suit your configuration and then refit the end.
