MB Sturgis RV Type 1 Connection
Compared with other Type 1 connectors, this dark green MB Sturgis Type 1 connector provides the highest flow rate possible before going into bypass mode. As a result, this pigtail will help to ensure that your propane setup will be able to power all of your appliances, even if they require high-pressure gas.
Type 1 connectors go into bypass mode if the flow rate surpasses the maximum flow capacity for that connector. When maximum capacity is reached, the flow of gas through the fitting will be completely shut off. The maximum flow capacity for this dark green Type 1 connector is 200 SCFH. When the gas in the system reaches this level, a ball inside of the fitting will push an internal spring down, pressing firmly against the bottom of the fitting to shut off the flow of gas.
This MB Sturgis dark green Type 1 connector not only provides a higher flow rate compared to cylinder connectors of different colors, but it also offers a higher rate when compared with dark green cylinder connectors from other manufacturers. The MB Sturgis dark green Type 1 has been tested to ensure that it hits a maximum of 200 SCFH every time.

Today, we're going to be taking a look at the MB Sturgis Propane Pigtail Hose. This is used to connect a dual LP cylinder system to a 2-stage regulator. It's going to feature your RV type 1 connector on this end. On the other end it's going to a feature a 1/4-inch male inverted flare. The type 1 provides a higher rate of flow resulting in a decreased potential for the system to go into bypass mode and therefore shutting down the gas supply to the system. The assembly is going to measure 24 inches long. Nice thermoplastic construction is strong, durable, and flexible. It's going to have the type 1 on this end.
It includes an internal back check to ensure that the system does not allow a back flow gas leak. The internal diameter or inner diameter of the hose is a 1/4 of an inch. The unit also features a heat sensitive thermal shut-off device to shut off the gas in extreme heat situations. When it comes to certification, it's UL, ANSI, and CSA certified, designed for LP gas only, that's liquid propane. It's going to feature a temperature range of -40 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit, and the maximum flow capacity is 200,000 BTUs per hour. That's going to do it for today's look at the MB Sturgis Propane Pigtail Hose..

Pigtail hose connects your dual LP gas cylinder setup to the regulator on your camper. Internal back-check prevents gas leaks.
If I ever smelled propane leaking again and could isolate the leak to the pigtail supply lines, I would not hesitate to order these. They have been perfect a year later. Much better quality than the originals.
My trailer is almost 20 years old and the regulator and hoses needed replacement, all were of excellent quality and fit perfectly!
I needed a high flow propane connection and etrailer had exactly what I needed. These hose/connectors allow more BTU’s than the standard BBQ hoses. I have a propane tankless water heater since natural gas isn’t available. The W/H runs off a standard 5 gallon propane tank and standard connector/hose. The standard only allow up to 70,000 BTU to flow through. The tankless can use up to 199,000 BTU’s when you have more than one faucet open in the house. This higher rated connector/hose will allow up to 450,000 BTU’s which is overkill. But the hoses were $9 each.(a very low price compared to other online stores). So I won’t have a low flow issue.
I did not receive my order for this item. Tracking just stopped at a location and never said delivered. I contacted etrailer and they quickly sent a replacement at no charge. That's excellent customer service!
Just what I was looking for.
Arrived on time and exactly what I need ed.
part was to short for what i needed. found it to be cost prohibitive to return, so kept it. ordered correct length and it leaks, will try using plumbers tape to see if that helps, but that will take a few weeks as the trailer is at a friends house 155 miles away.
This was a quick and easy replacement for my leaking propane supply lines. And they're still working great a year later, just like I would expect.
parts came on time and as ordered
will use E-trailer agan
Item as described working well!
Still working fine no problem
Great Service, Product & Price. Make sure you get the hose with the same color ACME nut that your replacing.
