The # 100914-120-MBS is designed to fit on propane tanks with Type 1 fittings, but typically ASME 100-lbs tanks have POL fittings; this customer might have needed an adapter because they didn't have the correct hose to begin with. If you've got a 100-lb ASME tank it's likely that you've got a POL fitting so you'll want to use the # 37207-30665 to connect your ASME tank to the regulator on your RV and propane line.

If you can provide a photo of the tank's propane port I'm happy to confirm which pigtail hose you'll want to use. I've also linked one of our helpful articles on propane fittings that shows the differences between all of the fittings that you might encounter.
