gas pipes

Stove supply lines

Gas pipes are tubes that carry natural gas or other gaseous fuels through buildings or underground distribution systems.

The term appears in plumbing contexts and safety discussions: The contractor found a leak in the gas pipes.

In slang, gas pipes refers to very thin legs, likening them to narrow metal tubing.
