Pigtail makes the connection from the propane tanks on your trailer to the propane regulator. Also used to connect tanks to a high-pressure regulator to carry gas to a 2-stage regulator. Check valve prevents hazardous backflow leakage.

Specs:
This propane hose is ideal for travel trailers with a split-tank system. This kind of system features 1 cylinder on the driver's side and 1 cylinder on the passenger's side of your trailer. This hose connects the cylinder on the passenger's side to a high-pressure regulator. An additional hose (sold separately) will then carry the propane from the high-pressure regulator to the 2-stage regulator on the driver's side of your trailer.
Bypass Mode for Safety
This Type 1 connector will go into bypass mode if the flow rate surpasses the maximum flow capacity for this connector, which is 450,000 Btu per hour. 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.
When choosing a Type 1 connector, consider your overall propane demands and choose a connector with a flow rate that just exceeds it. That way, you won't trigger the bypass mode during normal use, but it will trigger in the event of a leak. If the bypass valve engages, stop using gas and start checking your connections for leaks.

Pigtail makes the connection from the propane tanks on your trailer to the propane regulator. Also used to connect tanks to a high-pressure regulator to carry gas to a 2-stage regulator. Check valve prevents hazardous backflow leakage.We were traveling and one of the High-Pressure regulators on my RV went bad - it was leaking noisily (sounds like a high-pressure hiss). My 5th wheel has two 30 lb tanks, one in a compartment on the driver's side and the other on the passenger side. Respect the dangers of propane but it was easy to replace. I have ordered many RV and trailer parts from etrailer in the past and was never disappointed. etrailer had the parts and delivery was fast - they are great. Be sure you get the right pressure regulator (mine was 30 psig and required 1/4" inlet and 1/4" outlet. The hose or outlet might look big, but these are 1/4" ID. I also needed the hose from the regulator to the propane tank. Be sure to get the right hose as they come in a variety of lengths and different pressure ratings (identified with a Black, Light Green or Dark Green knob) that connects to the propane tank. Apply 3 or 4 turns of yellow Teflon tape to the threaded end of the hose before inserting into the pressure regulator. Don't use white Teflon tape, which is for plumbing; yellow tape (etrailer 37207-30025) is thicker and is for propane. Install the pressure regulator correctly. The little ring on the outside edge of the pressure regulator must be installed pointing toward the ground. The installation took about 20 - 30 minutes. Don't forget to test for propane leaks. Respect the dangers of propane.
Good quality hose. Perfect replacement for my old degraded hoses (one was leaking). Bought the longer 20” hose to allow for a loop to reduce stress on the hose crimp connection where old hose leaked.
the hose and the regulator with the gas tape was installed. We are now safe in our 5th wheel from a propane leak. I had to get a neighbor to help as I didn't have enough hand strength to get fittings tight. etrailer helped me get all the right parts to make this happen.
Purchased as a replacement for the recalled LP regulator on my travel trailer. Easy to install and they work perfect!

Still working great!
OK Here we go, I have been dealing with ETRAILER for many many years .They are my go to parts company for all my rv ( MH and TT ) items I need. I run an RV park at the entrance to Death Valley National Park in Nevada I deal with 1000 of RV ers a year of which some need parts.or information I recommend ETRAILER and I follow up with them because I want to know how things worked out for them after all it was on my word they went to ETRAILER, and i,m from the old school folks where a persons word is everything. Not one person had anything bad to say about ETRAILER and they thanked me for telling them about them .So if your in a spot give them a call they will work with you..Just plain good people there.

Perfect fit for my trailer propane bottles. Great customer service. Responded very quickly to my inquiry on delivery tracking.
I bought these so I could mount the propane tanks on my trailer with the valves facing outward. Now they don't drag on the tank cover.
Looked to be quality replacement LP hose, installed, leak checked, no leaks. Note to etrailer, in one of your answers to Q&A you state to use white Teflon tape on fittings. You need to change that, white is not compatible with propane, it should be yellow (some blue is if so labeled).
Original short hose kinked and cracked. This hose fit perfectly. Simple replacement. No extra fittings needed.

Working perfectly. No kinking, no cracking, no leaks. Exactly what l needed!
Initially had purchased pig tails made by a competitor, but had not installed them. After reading reviews of MB Sturgis's product I returned the previously purchased hoses and installed the Sturgis pig tails. The Acme fitting and hose crimps seem to be of much higher quality Quick shipping from etrailer!
Works good year old still looks new on our RV trailer
great replacement
This product matched what I was trying to replace on my travel trailer.
E-trailer continues to be easy to navigate and find what you’re looking for, AND help is never far away! Customer service is obviously job one at E-trailer.
Previous pigtail hoses were 10 years old, and shot. Bought these- they are a couple of inches longer than the older ones, but- worked great. Did have to tighten them up pretty good before I stopped smelling propane, but- probably more a function of me not using the yellow thread tape. May unscrew these and put the thread tape on them. But in any event- work great!
Added GasStop valves on my Air Stream and needed longer pig tail hoses due to limited space. Ordering on line was easy, delivery was timely, and they fit as expected.
Was a direct replacement. Works great.
What a great company! Easy to use website. Comprehensive inventory. Fast processing and timely delivery. Couldn't ask for more.
Just what was needed to repair my camper
Perfect fit
Works great, easy to connect and disconnect without tools.
Perfect fit for an older tank to convert to the larger threads on tanks these days and a cooker/fryer stand.
This is a high quality hose made of thermoplastic with quality fittings that is an excellent value for the price
I have worked with etrailer several times and their ordering process online is excellent and the gas line I requested arrived in a timely manner, no hitches (see how I did that?). I'll be back when the need arises. My rPod and I can count on your service.

So far so good! Your message was a good reminder that I need to check my hoses and lines!!
This Pigtail was exactly what I needed for our RV. Etrailer was very prompt in shipping it out and it arrived earlier than was expected. Thank you etrailer!
Excellent, quick turn around
