Miflex Regulator Hose | Green


The Miflex Xtreme Green coloured hoses listed here are Low Pressure (LP) Regulator hoses. We offer premium quality, Italian made, double-braided Miflex Xtreme hoses at world competitive, value for money prices.

In addition to popular sport/recreational diving hoses in a variety of lengths and fittings, we stock hard-to-find technical diving hoses such as 210 cm (84 inch) regulator second-stage hoses.

3/8" UNF male thread is the standard size used for the majority of 1st stage regulators, but certain makes of regulators require the larger 1/2" UNF size. If you are unaware of this, please check! If you can't figure it out, then please provide us with the details of your regs via email, or give us a call.

PLEASE LOOK CAREFULLY, as we offer so many different hoses that it is easy to make a mistake when ordering.



Diving Near The Rip

A map of The Rip and surrounding features

"The Rip", also known as "The Heads", is the narrow waterway entrance connecting the Bass Strait to Port Phillip in southern Victoria, Australia. Because of large tidal flows through the relatively narrow channel from Port Phillip to the ocean, and a high rocky seabed, The Rip is a dangerous stretch of water and has claimed many ships and lives.

Geographically, The Rip is the roughly triangular area of water between the land points of Point Nepean on the Mornington Peninsula, Shortlands Bluff and Point Lonsdale on the Bellarine Peninsula, with these three forming The Heads.

There are many dive sites in the area of The Rip (The Heads), e.g. Port Phillip Heads Shipwreck Dives, and Melbourne divers need to understand the water movements and tidal flows to safely dive these sites.

The Rip & Tides Warning: Always keep an eye on sea conditions throughout any shore or boat dive within "The Rip" (aka "The Heads"). This is a dangerous stretch of water, where Bass Straight meets Port Phillip, which has claimed many ships and lives. Please read the warnings on the web page Diving Near The Rip before diving or snorkelling this site.
