  • Propane Hose Replacements for Regulator
    We do have hoses which may work for you. The MB Sturgis Propane Pigtail # 100833-24 is a type 1 cylinder connection with a 1/4" male inverted flare. This is a 2 foot hose, though we also have a 15" hose # 100833-15 and 1 foot hose # 100575-12-MBS. These hoses are also available with back check, the 20" # 100473-20-MBS, 15" # 100473-15-MBS and 12" # 100473-12. I've added links to review videos of each of these products for you to take a look at.

  • Replacement Hose for Marshall Gas M4 Flexible Hose Connector with a Female Flare Fitting
    I have done a bit of research and it sounds like you need the hose that goes from the propane bottle to the regulator. We have 3 different lengths of the MB Sturgis Propane Hose Assembly. We have 12", 15", and 20" lengths. - MB Sturgis Propane Hose w/ Back Check - RV Type 1 x 1/4" MPT - 12" # 100473-12 - MB Sturgis Propane Hose w/ Back Check - RV Type 1 x 1/4" MPT - 15" # 100473-15-MBS - MB Sturgis Propane Hose w/ Back Check - RV Type 1 x 1/4" MPT - 20" # 100473-20-MBS

  • Replacement Pigtail for GHA7 To Connect Propane Tanks and Regulator
    We offer the necessary replacement pigtails in many lengths for rubber hose, you can use # 37207-30755 for a 2 foot length, # 37207-30775 for a 3 foot length or # CAM59183 for a 4 foot length. If you'd prefer braided steel hose for durability, use part # 100833-24 for a 2 foot length or # 100833-36 for a 3 foot length.

  • Availability of 15 inch Long Propane Tank Pig Tails
    I understand what you are saying and I think you are on the right track. A bit more length from the pig tail would allow the rubber line to be able to loop so that it could tuck down better. We have 15 inch pig tails like part # 100473-15-MBS or even 2 foot long sections like part # 100473-24-MBS.

  • Replacement Propane Hose for Marshall HP424
    According to my research, the Marshall HP424 does have a Type 1 connection (which connects to your propane tank) and a 1/4" Male NPT connection (which connects to a dual-stage regulator). So the hose you mentioned will work as a replacement, and there are a number of different lengths if you were in need of one. - 12 Inches: MB Sturgis Propane Hose Assembly - RV Type 1 w/ Back Check x 1/4" MPT # 100473-12 - 15 Inches: MB Sturgis Propane Hose Assembly - RV Type 1 w/ Back Check x 1/4" MPT...

  • Pigtail Hose And Adapter Needed To Connect To A 14mm x 1.5 Male Propane Fitting
    Hey Layne, We don't currently offer metric fittings so you would need to get the correct adapter from your local hardware store, but we can hook you up with the pigtail hose portion of this. We offer pigtail hoses with a 1/4" male inverted flare (MIF) # 100575-12-MBS or 1/4 male NPT # 100473-12. Both are a foot in length so I would just see whether the npt or MIF is cheaper and go with that option.

  • 15" Hose For 100 lb Propane Tank With POL Fitting & 1/4" Male NPT Fitting
    We do have an option for you, though the # 100473-15-MBS has a Type 1 fitting one one end and 1/4" Male NPT fitting on the other; the Type 1 fitting does not connect to a 100 lb propane tank, as those tanks have a POL fitting. Though there are no tanks with a Male POL fitting and 1/4" Male NPT fitting, you can use an adapter to get exactly what you need, with the correct parts being the following: - MB Sturgis Sturgi-Stay Propane Fill Hose - POL Pigtail x 1/4" Male Inverted Flare - 15"...

  • Pigtail Replacement for 2009 Jayco Jay/flight G2TT
    It appears the part number you have listed may be a Marshal brand, we do not carry this brand but do have high quality components available from MB Sturgis. The length of hose needed, thread size and type are required to ensure a proper fit for replacement. We have the MB Sturgis, # 100473-12, a 12" hose with the needed Type 1 - Male on one end of the pig tail and a 1/4 Inch - Male NPT on the other. See the attached product review video. We also have the same hose but in a 15" length...

  • Propane Hose with 1/4" Male Fitting Does Not Fit Regulator with 1/4" Female Fitting
    From the picture that you attached it looks like the regulator has a 1/4" SAE inverted flare, like the Camco Automatic Changeover 2-Stage Propane Regulator # CAM59005 does. This means that only hoses that have the 1/4" male inverted flare, like part # CAM59053, will fit. Since the MB Sturgis Propane Hose w/ Back Check # 100473-15-MBS that you purchased does not have the inverted flare you will simply need to remove the fitting that is currently on your regulator and install the Sturgis...

  • Troubleshooting Propane Regulator That Only Works on One Side
    Start off by checking your pigtail. If you change your switch so that it is turned towards the side that isn't working and then swap your pigtails as well this will tell you if you need to simply replace a pigtail or if your have a bad regulator. If you find that it works when you swap the pigtail as well then you just need to replace your pigtail. If your regulator has the gold fittings on it where the pigtail attaches then you need part # 100575-12-MBS. Otherwise you would need part...

  • Can Type 1 Propane Connector be Used for Propane Tank with Threads on Outside
    Thank you for the photo! Since your propane tank has the threads on the outside and inside it means that you can use a pigtail with either the POL or Type 1 connection like you're asking about. Swapping over to the Type 1 is a great idea just because it's easier to twist on plus you don't have to mess with any kind of sealant. If your regulator has the adapter on it then I recommend using the MB Sturgis Propane Pigtail - Stainless Overbraid - Type 1 x 1/4" Male Inverted Flare - 15" # 100833-15...

  • Propane Regulator for MB Sturgis 100473 Propane Hose
    Yes, you can use the MB Sturgis 100473 hose with a replacement single-stage regulator, which is what it looks like you need based on your photo. For the regulator you will need the Camco Single Stage Propane Regulator # CAM59013. Then for the 100473 hose you can choose the one you need based on the length: - 12 inches: MB Sturgis Propane Hose - RV Type 1 with Back Check x 1/4" MPT # 100473-12 - 15 inches: MB Sturgis Propane Hose - RV Type 1 with Back Check x 1/4" MPT # 100473-15-MBS -...

  • Should Pipe Sealant be Used When Installation Propane Tank 1/4 MPT Pigtail
    Yes you should use some kind of sealant on threaded fittings whether it is the tape or pipe dope. Using the white Teflon tape will work well on installing the propane pigtail top the LP regulator. Just wrap the tape on the threads only.

  • Selecting Pigtail Hose for Maximum Flow Capacity
    I agree that you would be fine with either the MB Sturgis, # 100473-15-MBS or the, # 100575-12 based on your stated usage. I suggest selecting the maximum flow capacity of the # 100575-12-MBS.

    We currently carry the MB Sturgis Vertical 2-Stage Propane Regulator # 108220 which is a 1/4" female NPT inlet, 3/8 female NPT outlet, 2 stage propane regulator. In stage 2 this regulator will reduce pressure to 11" W.C to allow for safe gas flow to your appliances. Be sure to use teflon tape like # A05-0265 to properly seal your NPT fittings.
