Propane T-Fitting for POL Valve - 1/4" FIF and Disposable Cylinder Port

Video Transcript for Hands-On with the Propane T-Fitting for POL Valve

Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're going to take a quick look at the JR product Propane T-fitting. This is going to hook up to your RV or travel trailer's propane system, and give you a couple extra ports to hook up other items. We've got a few different nozzles here, so let's go through them together.Here, we have our male POL fitting. This is what's going to thread into the valve on your propane cylinder tank. It does have threads there that will thread into the inner threads of your tank.

So, you will have to thread that in a counter-clockwise, which might be a little bit counterintuitive to those of us who know the righty-tighty lefty-loosey method, because this doesn't have a hand, you will need another tool to get that tightened down, but you can see we've got the O-ring on the tip there that's going to help create a nice tight seal. So, we don't have to worry about any gas leaks or anything like that.On the other side, we've got our female POL fitting, and this is where you're going to insert the male POL fitting that you currently have installed on your gas cylinder valve. Again, just thread that in there, make sure it's nice and tight. You might need a tool to tighten it down depending on what your current male POL fitting looks like. And then that is going to re-complete your system so that your gas will be flowing from your tank through, and then this hose will be going back out to your regulator.

So, that will be a consistent flow there.Then our other two fittings, we've got a 1/4" female inverted flare fitting. So, you can use this to insert a pigtail to an auxiliary cylinder. If you want to have an extra cylinder connected there, I will give you that option.And our fourth fitting is going to be a male #600, or it's sometimes called a 1"-20, or a disposable cylinder port. This is going to allow you to connect a small appliance, maybe like a gas grill or something like that. So, you can cook burgers while you're out camping without having to disconnect your propane system.

And without having to have a separate auxiliary or a disposable cylinder, you can put this up to your RV system and run it off of the propane there.Well, keep in mind, this is designed for LP gas only which LP of course stands for liquid propane. You don't want to use any other kinds of gases or water or anything like that with this T-fitting.And that's going to complete our look at the JR product Propane T-fitting..
