Is There a Type 1 Propane Pigtail with 1/2" FIF on the Output Side
Updated 08/23/2022 | Published 08/21/2022 >
Question:
I have an old fifth wheel in need of a new propane tank to gas plumbing pigtail but none of the ones I see online fit. I need a pigtail with a Type-1 tank connector and a 1/2inch ID female inverted flare fitting to fit the RV gas line fitting. Or I could use a 1/2inch female inverted flare to a 1/4inch female inverted flare or NPT so I can use a standard 1/4inch male inverted flare or NPT pigtail which is widely available. Any idea where I could find either of these?

Expert Reply:
I do have an option for you but most if not all propane pigtails with type 1 fittings are going to have either a 1/4" MPT or 1/4" MIF fittings on the other side like the MB Sturgis Propane Pigtail part # 100473-12. That said, you can adapt the 1/4" MPT or 1/4" MIF to a 1/2" FIF with the correct fitting found at your local home supply stores.
