Rubber and plastics hoses, tubing and assemblies for use with propane and butane and their mixtures in the vapour phase - Part 1: Hoses and tubings
This European Standard specifies the characteristics and performance requirements for tubing and hoses made of either rubber or plastics for use with commercial propane and commercial butane and mixtures thereof, in the vapour phase, for connection of appliances, from:
- pressurized gas container to a regulating device,
- pressurized gas container to an appliance,
- regulating device to an appliance, and
- regulating device to installation pipework,
in environments of a temperature range from -30 °C to +70 °C. Working pressures are from 0 bar to 30 bar.
Three classes are defined in Table 1 according to the maximum working pressures and minimum ambient temperatures.
This European Standard only covers the tubing or hose part of assemblies. The assemblies themselves will be covered by EN 16436-2.
This European Standard does not apply to hoses for:
- welding purposes (see EN ISO 3821, EN 1327);
- propulsion purposes;
- LPG transfer purposes (see EN 1762).

Overview
EN 16436-1:2014+A1:2015/FprA2:2018 is a CEN European Standard that specifies characteristics and performance requirements for rubber and plastics hoses and tubing intended for use with commercial propane and butane (LPG) and their mixtures in the vapour phase. The standard covers hoses and tubing used to connect:
- pressurized gas containers to regulating devices or appliances,
- regulating devices to appliances,
- regulating devices to installation pipework.
Scope limits: temperature range −30 °C to +70 °C and working pressures from 0 bar up to 30 bar. This document applies only to the hose/tubing component; complete assemblies are covered by EN 16436-2. Exclusions include hoses for welding, propulsion and bulk LPG transfer.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Classes and pressure ratings: Three service classes are defined (see Table 1) according to maximum working pressure and minimum ambient temperature to match different application demands.
- Material and construction: Requirements cover rubber and plastic constructions suitable for vapour-phase LPG service.
- Inspection and visible defects: Tubing/hose must show no visible cracks, air bubbles or foreign particles when examined with normal corrected vision prior to test (per A.4).
- Pressure testing: Defined proof and burst pressure requirements and limits on dimensional change after pressure tests (see Clause 8 and Table 5).
- Durability tests:
- UV resistance: Xenon arc (EN ISO 30013) testing - type 4, method A, cycle 1 for 1 000 h; no visible flaking or cracking under ×2 magnification.
- Resistance to crushing: Conditioning at 70 ±2 °C, defined airflow and pressure conditions, and specified compressive forces per class (e.g., 75 N to 250 N over 25 mm); followed by a proof pressure hold test per EN ISO 1402.
- Documentation and marking: References to the standard designation (EN 16436-1) and related identification requirements.
Applications and Users
- Manufacturers of LPG hoses and tubing (rubber or plastic)
- Component suppliers for domestic and commercial gas appliances
- Testing laboratories and certification bodies performing compliance and type testing
- Engineers and specifiers designing LPG appliance connections and installation pipework
- Procurement teams seeking compliant components for vapour-phase propane/butane systems
Practical uses include hose/tubing for portable cylinders, appliance connections, regulators and upstream connections within the specified temperature and pressure ranges.
