joytron Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Looking for a hose to fit a syrian hose port, ideally something washable or at least a wide gauge with a narrow tip that is at a greater angle than most hose tips. Don't let me down HF! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epoch Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Have you tried using a standard Nammor hose? They seem to fit nearly everything, and don't have a hose port handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 It'll be tough. Options I know of. Mya Hoses Tonic Hoses Small OG Nammors NuHose Fancy Hose Magical Mystery Hose Cheap Washables (Al Fakher, Al Sultan, Inhale, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang67n Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 My nammor hoses fit terribly in both of my syrians. The only hose I have that fits really well is my razan abu-mahir. miss you, jess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joytron Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 I have a few tonic washable hoses and a couple of razans, both of which are too large. The razan is a better fit. The handle isnt the issue, the hose port tips are either too wide or dont have enough of an angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang67n Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 maybe try a few different gaskets to see if you can get a perfect fit? or some of that cloth tape stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 the small OG nammor has a smaller hose port end... don't know why, just does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mavsfan31 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Fancy Hoses have always worked well for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavo21 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 jess bring it to the lounge on saturday, you can try a couple diff hoses we have see if they fit. if not...modifcation time?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 If it's THAT small you may just have to resort to a Nu/Fancy Hose. Using a damp paper towel strip, how's the fit? Still too tight? If so, what Syrian do you have? I'd like to know to make sure I avoid getting it. No but really, I hope we can find you a good fitting hose for you... As Stuie mentioned, the small Nammors have a smaller hose port tip. And it's still a decently sized hose (won't feel tiny in your hands... giggidy). Me personally I have a Razan Abu Mahir hose, a fretted Nammor, and a Fancy hose and all fit my Syrians great. But then again, I have Al Nawras ones with the larger hose ports... I really hate that so many Syrians out there come with such tiny hose ports. Makes Syrians look bad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoozle Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Maybe the solution would be to get a Syrian pipe that doesn't suck Seriously though, I know it can be frustrating. I went through that with my Mya. What exactly do you mean by greater angle? Do you need a relatively sharp angle or relatively broad angle? I'm guessing that your hose port is smaller than a standard Mya hose port? I have a Small Nammor and it has a pretty small port end. The angle on it is pretty sharp, which should, theoretically, work in your hose port whatever shape it is as long as you have the right gasket. I don't use it. If you want it, I'll send it to you for free + shipping with an assortment of gaskets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KasbahBazaar Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Possible fixes: 1) Dremel/conical file to grind out the inside (my personal favorite) 2) Sand paper to thin down the hose end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joytron Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 The pipe was from squidget, for the lady. The hose port is narrower than a Mya but similar in shape.I really do not want to have to use a nuhose. Thanks for the offer Skoozle, I am PMing you now. Mark, maybe I should try a combination of both of those things, if it was my pipe I would be a little less hesitant. Good ideas though.

Chreees Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Ahh, the infamous Nour Camila. Those things are notorious for having tiny hose ports. Sorry man. I've heard of people doing what Mark suggested- sanding down the inside of it to fit bigger hose port tips better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoozle Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I have to admit, It was pretty impressive for a second that the Narwas was casting a South Smoke shadow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should bring the pipe in anyways though. Fancy hoses certainly the worst word to describe them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

king_lunchb0x Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I have the nour cross hatch model. I got my 3yr old small nammor to fit by sanding down the outside and using one piece of paper towel as grommet. The nour ports are a bitch, the angle and length just don't make any sense for function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Just got a snake charmer hose a while back. pulled it out, hose port side is very narrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I have that same pipe. I just used my dremmel as others recommended already. Just get a nice plugin for the dremmel that fits in the port, takes 1 minuted to sand it down and mine now fits all hoses. Goodluck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dizzbizz Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Nu hose works great for narrow hose ports. Thats what I use for the lady's syrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claytronmeans Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Nuhose/Fancy hose is by far the best performing hose I have come in contact with. While they're cheaply made, the hose post handle is tiny, last for quite some time considering the price, and the draw is phenomenal. Sure they don't look great, however I will take a hookah that smokes amazingly over a hookah that looks amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jantzen Moore Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Nammor hose would be best or a km. they have fit all of my hookah and I have seen both used on various hookahs at my local hookah lounge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
