Your automatic changeover regulator needs a pigtail from each propane cylinder. This 2-pack gives you both 24" hoses, connecting two Type I cylinder valves to the regulator's 1/4" female inverted flare inlets.

Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at these MEC RV propane pigtail hoses. So these pigtail hoses are designed for an RV propane system that uses two propane cylinders with an automatic changeover regulator. And since each regulator or each cylinder, rather, needs its own connection to the regulator, this package includes two matching 24-inch long pigtails, giving you what you need for that dual setup. So on the propane tank side, each hose is going to have this green Type 1 Acme nut. And that hand wheel is going to thread onto a compatible propane cylinder valve by hand.
So you don't need a wrench for that connection. On the regulator side, this hose has 1/4 of an inch male inverted flare fitting. So that means that your regulator's obviously gonna need a compatible 1/4 of an inch female inverted flare inlet. And each hose is gonna be 24 inches long. I got 'em kind of bundled up here just so they can fit in frame here on my table.
The inside diameter's 1/4 of an inch. And each of these hoses have a flow capacity of up to 200,000 BTU per hour. The thermoplastic hoses are UL- and CGA-approved for propane service, and they are rated for a working pressure of up to 350 psig. And they even have a 400-pound pull test rating. So the biggest benefit of what you're getting here is that these are specifically set up, again, for that dual-cylinder application.
So instead of having to purchase two pigtails separately, you're gonna get both of these hoses together with one running from each propane cylinder to your automatic changeover regulator. Well, I think that's gonna wrap up our quick look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name's Andy. Thank you for joining me.
