    Thanks for pointing out that there are two types of fuel hoses that
    are not compatible with all fuels. I was unaware of this. I had a
    look at the Smith website. As you mentioned, they sell the T hose
    for propane and the R hose for acetylene, they also sell a hose
    "13254 -3-6" for "any fuel". 

    I checked my Rio Grande catalogue and they also carry what appears
    to be a fuel hose for any fuel for the smith torch (500-024). So I
    suppose it would make sense to always order the "any fuel" hose as
    there would then be no reason to worry about which fuel you were
    using with which hose.
