Connect a nearby auxiliary propane cylinder to your RV's compatible propane system with this 15" pigtail. Excess-flow protection restricts propane flow if the hose is damaged.
This 15" pigtail connects a portable auxiliary propane cylinder to a compatible RV propane system when the cylinder and connection point are close together. The male POL fitting connects at the cylinder, while the 1/4" male inverted flare connects to a compatible female inlet on your propane system.
A broken or damaged propane hose can release propane rapidly, creating a serious fire hazard. The 0.9 GPM excess-flow POL fitting restricts propane flow when its closing rate is exceeded.

Hi, everyone, Steven here with etrailer. Today we're taking a look together at this MEC RV Propane Pigtail Hose for an auxiliary propane tank. Now folks, this is gonna be 15 inches long and basically all the motor homes and campers, a lot of them have a permanently mount propane tank, right But if you're running low on that, you don't have any auxiliary tanks, you may have to back up camp, go back into town, go to some place that can actually fill it. They may not even be one close to you, who knows And that's when an auxiliary cylinder is gonna give you that second option. So if you have an auxiliary tank, you're probably gonna need a pigtail, something like this. This POL male fitting will go into the POL fitting on that tank.
It uses a 7/8 inch nut. On the other side you got a quarter inch male inverted flare and that's going to connect to a compatible female inverted flare inlet on the propane system. Now because that's an inverted flare connection, just make sure you verify the style of what you have on your setup on your RV or camper to be sure this is gonna work with that. Now as I said, this is 15 inches long. We carry these in multiple lengths.
If you need something longer, we got you covered. So check them out separately. Also, anytime you connect propane connections, I highly recommend you use some kind of leak detection. We carry some separately. Item MEC78TR, sold separately.
Now this is a thermoplastic hose, so it's been propane approved, rather for propane service, and it's fully crimped on both ends with brass ferrules. So very strong, very heavy duty. So again, folks, if you're looking for an auxiliary cylinder connection on your motor home RV, the 15 inch by MEC, it's probably gonna be a great choice for you. I'm Steven. Thanks for watching.
