From individual hoses to full installation kits, our range brings together all the components needed for a safe and secure Micropoint cooker connection.
Our Micropoint plug-in gas hoses are available in a variety of popular lengths to suit different kitchen layouts. Options include the GFS® Plug-In Micropoint Bayonet Gas Cooker Hose 1000mm, 1250mm, 1500mm and 2000mm, along with imperial lengths such as 3ft, 3ft 6" and 4ft variants.
These hoses are designed for use with compatible Micropoint bayonet sockets and are available for both natural gas and LPG installations. Choosing the correct length helps avoid unnecessary strain or tight bends behind the appliance.
To complete the connection, we stock both straight and angled 1/2" BSP threaded Micropoint sockets. Products such as the GASM8 Straight Micropoint Bayonet Socket – 1/2" BSP TM and the GASM8 Angled Micropoint Bayonet Socket – 1/2" BSP TM provide a secure wall connection point for plug-in hoses. Straight sockets are typically used where space allows, while angled options can help in tighter installations.
For convenience, BES offers complete solutions such as the Gas Cooker Installation Kit No.2 - Micropoint and Gas Cooker Installation Kit No.4 - Micropoint. These kits bring together the hose, bayonet socket, wall plate elbow, cooker stability chain and fixing components required for a standard installation. They’re a practical choice when carrying out a full cooker replacement or new fit.
Micropoint safety plugs provide a secure way to seal the socket when the cooker hose is disconnected. Options include the GASM8 Micropoint Safety Plug and chained variants designed to remain attached to the installation point for added convenience. Safety plugs help prevent debris entering the socket and ensure the supply point is properly sealed when not in use.
A Micropoint hose uses a plug-in bayonet-style connection designed specifically for cooker installations. The fitting allows the appliance to be safely connected and disconnected from the gas supply while maintaining a secure, sealed connection when engaged. Micropoint systems are commonly used in domestic kitchens and are designed to work with compatible Micropoint bayonet sockets and wall plates.
Our selection of Micropoint hoses offers options for both natural gas and LPG applications. Always ensure the hose and fittings selected are suitable for the intended gas type before installation and that the installation gets carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
While both systems use a plug-in style connection, Micropoint fittings are designed to work specifically with Micropoint-compatible sockets and components. It’s important not to mix different bayonet systems unless compatibility is clearly confirmed.
Gas cooker hoses should comply with relevant British Standards for flexible gas connectors, such as BS 669-1 where applicable. Always check the individual product specification for certification and approval details.
For over 50 years, BES has supplied gas fittings and cooker connection products to installers across the UK. Our Micropoint range focuses on dependable components engineers use every day.
