small hose to large hose adaptor name?

[kibodwin]

Hello,
I need an adapter from the small hose coming out of my mig welder to a bigger hose.
Anyone able to provide a name of this sort of adapter with the description I have given?
Here is a photo of what I am trying to do (not my photo).

Thanks,
K.

Is this the sort of thing you want?

Or if you want the full adaptor and regulator for large bottles then Weldequip sells them.

Graham,
Thank you very much for the quick reply.
The first link you provide has what I am looking for, it is the metal adapter between
the small hose and the larger one.
I have the small hose and the bigger one, I just need the adapter between the two.
In fact if you know the name of these adapters I will look myself...
thanks again, appreciated.

Hi CJ,
No not really... I have a friend wh has one and will try and snap a photo.
It is an adaptor from the small gas input hose on the mig welder to a bigger
hose used with bigger gas cylinders. It is a small metal step up adaptor with
the small hose going in the adaptor....
I will try and get a photo..
thanks anyway...
