Can a 1/4 inch hose be used as a substitute for a 6mm hose?

In this situation, most of the valves on site use British-style gas supply pipes; therefore, there are corresponding ferrules and gas hoses available for connecting to these valves. There are also some valves that use metric pipes, and now various metric ferrules are available. Since no metric pipes are present, can a 1/4 inch hose be used as a substitute for a 6 mm hose?

No, the card holder is not suitable; it may cause air leakage or easy detachment.

The socket joint is a precision pipe fitting with very tight tolerances; one size is 6MM and the other is 6.35MM. Do you think it can be fitted together without causing leaks?

Can a 6mm metric collet fit a 1/4 inch pipe? Go for it if you can! What’s there to be afraid of? I’m not even afraid of the factories in Yancheng; I’m afraid of a hammer just because of a different pipe? Let’s do it!

Forcing a stainless steel pipe to be tightened down using tape can provide a temporary solution, but as a result the collet is essentially ruined.
