• Can The Brass Fittings On The Camco Automatic Changeover 2-Stage Propane Regulator Be Removed
  Hey Michael, The Camco Automatic Changeover 2-Stage Propane Regulator for Dual Propane Tanks # CAM59005 inlets are 1/4" NPT thread and the brass fittings are just an adapter to switch from NPT to 1/4" female flare since 1/4" male flare fittings are a popular connection type for pigtail hoses. You can remove the brass fittings but they are held in place with Loctite so it might be challenging to get them out. After getting them out I would use a wire brush to clean any remaining Loctite...

• Replacing a Winntech 6020 Propane Regulator
  There are actually several options available to replace your Winntec 6020. A lot of propane regulators carry similar specs and are pretty comparable when it comes to quality. The Winntec 6020 regulator that you referenced is a low pressure regulator. My suggestion is to replace with the Compact Low Pressure 2-Stage Automatic Changeover RV LP Gas Regulator, # 37207-31525 that is rated for 262,500 Btu. But with the need to get something as soon as possible and your willingness to switch...

• Converting 1/4 Inch Inverted Male Flare Fitting to 1/4 Inch Male NPT
  Fitting # CAM59953 is designed to connect a 1/4 inch inverted flare to a 1/4 inch female NPT. The one end is a 1/4 inch male NPT and the other is a 1/4 inch female inverted flare fitting. It sounds like you need one that does the opposite but we do not have one. Hose # CAM59153 has the 1/4 inch inverter flare male end on one side and would screw into the larger female end of # CAM59953 but then you would still have a 1/4 inch non-inverted flare male end after that. If that is what you...

• How to Adapt From 1/4 inch Inverted Flare to Quick Disconnect Propane
  Here's what you need to do. On the 4 port adapter there is a very small plug with the tether on it going into a larger adapter with the other end of the tether on it that goes directly into the barrel of the 4 port adapter. Remove the small plug, then use a 5/8" socket to remove the 1/4" NPT fitting that is directly into the barrel of the 4 port adapter. Then all you need to do is use a standard 1/4" NPT nipple of whatever length you require to go directly into the 4 port adapter with...

• Replacement Propane Hose Needed
  I suggest that you replace with the Propane Hose with Back Check - Type 1 x 1/4" Male NPT, # 37207-30855. This hose will connect your tank with the Type 1 connector and have a 1/4 Inch - Male NPT on the other for your regulator side connection. From attached image I can see that you have female inverted flare connection. However, I cannot tell from image definitively what size. It may be a 1/4", which I suggest the Camco Propane Fitting - 1/4" Male NPT x 1/4" Female Inverted Flare, #...

• Can I Remove Brass Fittings From Propane Regulator and Plug Hoses Directly Into Regulator?
  Yes. You can remove the Camco # CAM59953 from your Cavagna 924N and use a pigtail with a 1/4" MPT like the # 100473-20-MBS. You'll likely need some gas line tape for the threads; you can use # 37207-30025 to safely thread everything together and make sure that there is no leakage.

• 1/4 Inch Fine Inverted Flare to 1/4 Inch NPT Male Fitting To Connect Pigtail to LP Regulator.
  That's exactly correct. The # CAM59953 fitting you referred to will accept a 1/4 inch inverted flare to a 1/4 male NPT coarse thread for attaching a pigtail to a regulator.

• 100 lb Cylinder Set-Up To Heat Trailer In Winter
  It shouldn't be a problem to hook up a 100 lb cylinder to your trailer while it is stored for the winter. As long as you have the correct fittings, you'd just need to disconnect your dual tanks from the trailer's propane line and close them, and make sure your 100 lb cylinder is connected to your trailer's propane line with a dual-stage regulator and a POL hose. It's likely that the pigtails you already have with your smaller dual cylinders won't work with the 100 lb cylinder, so you need...

• How To Attach Two Hoses To One Propane Regulator
  I do have an option for you but I am not very familiar with your setup and it is a bit uncommon. If you wish to attach both hoses to the same regulator assuming they are both low pressure then you will indeed need some sort of y-fitting which we do not offer but we do have the regulator and hose that you need, the Camco Automatic Changeover 2-Stage Propane Regulator part # CAM59005 and the Camco Propane Supply Hose part # CAM59053. The y-fitting will need to be obtained from a local hardware/home...

• Does Propane Fitting Have Built-In Check Valve
  The Camco Propane Fitting, part # CAM59953, is the 1/4 inch male NPT fitting that will allow you to attach a regulator with a 1/4 inch female NPT connector to the propane pigtail. There is no check valve built in to the fitting.

• Correct Fitting for Camco Pigtail 59053 to 2-Stage Regulator with Missing Fitting
  Thank you for all of the details on your situation! The fitting that you need to connect your Camco Propane Supply Hose # CAM59053 to the regulator, like part # CAM59005 (without one of the fittings), is the Camco # CAM59953. This has a 1/4" Male NPT end that connects to your regulator and then a 1/4" Female Inverted Flare end that you connect your pigtail to. The reason that the title don't match up with the fittings you are looking at is because the titles refer to the propane hose...

• Propane Pigtail with Acme Screw and 1/4-Inch NPT Fittings
  At this time we offer only the 20-inch-long propane pigtail with a Type 1 (also known as an Acme or QCC1) connector on one end and a 1/4-inch male NPT on the other, part # 100473-20-MBS. If you prefer you can install Camco Propane Fitting # CAM59953, which has a 1/4-inch male NPT fitting on one end, and then use the 1-foot Supply Hose # CAM59053 you already have which will connect to the fitting.

  On the Camco Automatic Changeover 2-Stage Propane Regulator # CAM59005 the fittings are a 1/4-inch inverted flare on the inlet and a 3/8-inch NPT female on the outlet. Part # CAM59953 is a correct replacement.

• Propane Pigtail Needed with 36" Hose and Type 1 to 1/4" MPT Connections
  If you are needing a hose that is 36" long then I recommend using the Camco Propane Supply Hose # CAM59173 for your application. This has the type 1 ACME nut that you use to connect to your propane tank and then it has a 1/4" male inverted flare. To connect this to your regulator you just need the Camco Propane Fitting # CAM59953 which has a 1/4" male NPT fitting (for your regulator) and a 1/4" female inverted flare fitting to match the Camco pigtail. If you'd like a hose longer than that...

• Can the Camco Propane Fitting # CAM59953 be Used for a Pigtail with a Fitting About 7/16 in Size
  The confusing thing about propane is that the title size of the fittings usually don't reflect the actual size of the fitting itself. If your Camco pigtail has an inverted flare fitting like what is shown in the attached picture then the Camco Propane Fitting # CAM59953 is exactly what you need as most regulators take the 1/4" MPT male fitting as is shown in the second picture. Some regulators, like part # CAM59005, already come with the adapter installed but some, like part # CAM59313,...

• 2 Stage Regulator Replacement With Single Stage Regulator
  A fix to this would be to use a MB Sturgis Single Stage Propane Regulator # 108072 in lieu of your current regulator as long as long as the new regulator meets the specifications that are required to run your propane appliance. Check your current regulator to make sure you can do the swap. You may need to buy an adapter like # CAM59953 to use your current pigtails. A replacement bracket like U-Post RV LP Gas Regulator Bracket # 37207-30405 would work for you as well.

• Is There Lead in the Camco Propane Fitting part # CAM59953
  As in most brass fittings there is a small percentage of lead in them. It shouldn't be a problem but there is a method you can use to remove the very small amount surface lead of the Camco Propane Fitting # CAM59953. You should note that the amount of lead in this brass fitting is low enough that it shouldn't pose any type of health risk. Dilute 1 part hydrogen peroxide with 2 parts of vinegar in a bowl to form the cleaning solution. The acidic properties of this solution are able to...
