TUSA Quick Disconnect Hose for TUSA IR-3 & Scubapro Air-2

Quick answer: This Tusa quick disconnect hose connects your first stage to a TUSA IR-3 or Scubapro Air-2 integrated inflator and alternate air source. Fat Guy Scuba Supply lists it through our Scuba.com affiliate partnership, and you complete the purchase at Scuba.com.

What it does

Integrated inflators like the TUSA IR-3 and Scubapro Air-2 combine your BCD inflator and backup second stage into one unit. That means the hose feeding it has to do two jobs: supply air to inflate your BCD and supply air to breathe from in an emergency. This quick disconnect hose is built for that setup, so the unit gets the airflow it needs.

Why replace your hose

Hoses wear out. Look for bulges, cracks, worn ends or a sticky quick-disconnect fitting. Any of those are signs it's time for a new one. Because this hose also feeds your alternate air source, keeping it in good shape is a real safety issue, not just maintenance.

Before ordering

Check the retailer’s product details to confirm the hose length and fittings match your integrated inflator and first stage. A standard inflator hose may not supply enough air for these units.

Usage notes

Have a qualified technician install the hose if you're unsure, and always test both inflation and breathing before you dive. Rinse after every dive and inspect the hose regularly.

FGSS take: Your backup air is only as good as the hose feeding it. This is worth getting right.
