MB Sturgis Propane Fittings - 100473-24-MBS

  • Hoses
  • Pigtail Hoses
  • 2 Feet Long
  • 1/4 Inch - Male NPT
  • Type 1 - Female
  • MB Sturgis

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.


Features:

  • Propane pigtail connects your propane cylinder to a regulator
    • Used for single or dual tank setups on the front of your travel trailer
    • Also used to connect a remote tank to a high-pressure regulator
  • Female Type 1 fitting connects to the valve on your propane cylinder
  • Male NPT connects to a propane regulator
  • Built-in bypass mode shuts gas off when flow reaches maximum capacity for safety
    • Thermal shut-off device turns off gas flow in extreme heat caused by open flame
    • Excess-flow safety device limits gas flow in the event of a severe leak
  • Durable thermoplastic hose and brass fittings approved for LP gas only
    • Rated for high pressure and high flow rate to handle unregulated propane
    • UL569 and ANSI Z21-81 certified
  • Made in the USA


Specs:

  • Temperature range: -40 F to 140 F
  • Hose dimensions: 24" long x 1/4" inner diameter
  • Hose fittings:
    • Female Type 1
    • 1/4" Male NPT
  • Maximum pressure rating: 350 psi
  • Maximum flow capacity: 450,000 Btu per hour
  • 1-Year limited warranty


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.

Looks like good quality. Easy install. I wish etrailer sold the T connector as well, but I was able to get it at my local DIY store.



by:

This was exactly what we needed to fix a propane leak on our travel trailer. Pigtails with a 1/4" NPT end were hard to find, but etrailer has this one, which has been great.



by:

After making the mistake of buying lesser quality hoses that leaked after a short time, I found the products that etrailer sells, endorses and stands behind to be top notch. Highly recommend!



by:

Replaced along with new regulator. Went with a 2" longer hose.

I went with a 2 long hose. Very satisfied with products I purchased from Etrailer



by:

Great quality and American made. Etrailer.com always has what I need.



by:

I have searched all over town for the proper propane hoses for our camper, and finally found the perfect matches here. Thank you!



by:

The high quality of this piece is evident. In particular, the crimped collars (where my OE gas line failed on my Airstream) are exceptionally made.



by:

I had to go to a longer length because of time constraints on my end. They fit great. Ready to go.

My original order was damaged during shipping. Etrailer shipped another set right away so I didn’t miss my trip. Great customer service and support



by:

Direct replacement. Quality product.



by:

Works great!



by:

Routine maintenance item. They get stiff with age, not something you want to leak.



by:

You guys are awesome.



by:

Perfect fit



by:

E-trailer kept me informed when original party was delayed, and offered an acceptable alternative which was shipped the next a.m. and kept me well informed of the status. Part received was exactly right, and I keep shopping here because I know I’m getting the right part and the support is excellent.



by:

Exactly what I needed..



by:

Great that you guys had the items



by:

So far so good. I've had these for a year now and no issues since I put them on. I love that they are made in the USA as well. Sturgis will be my brand from now on unless they start manufacturing in china.



by:

A perfect fit to the new regulator I also purchased from you. Thanks.

No problems thus far. A good product.



by:

etrailer is great. They have great product descriptions and review videos so that I know exactly what I am buying and how it will fit my needs
I recently received a propane hose from etrailer that had been mis-packaged and therefore was the wrong length. They quickly sent out a replacement hose and now I have what I need.
Thanks a lot to Bryan and the crew at etrailer.



by:

Seem very solid and made in the USA so must be good, right? But the real reason I take the time to write this review is to praise etrailer's staff for their excellent customer service. My package was lost by USPS at the Canadian border and etrailer followed up with several emails and a phone call and reshipped my order. I didn't have to harass anyone, I only needed to send one email initially. They really cared about making sure I was happy. Thank you etrailer staff! Christmas bonus for everyone!



by:

Made in USA sold this item. It's only been installed for 20 minutes, but no leaks detected following the install. Hoping for years of trouble-free service.



by:

Just what my husband needed for the propane gas line on his 1/8 scale steam-engine model train. Couldn't find the right fitting at any hardware store. We got exactly what he needed from etrailer! Thanks!



by:

Good product. Works exactly as expected.



by:

Exact replacement for the old gas line I had on my 5th wheel. Construction is sturdy and fits nicely. Arrived on time and as advertised. Would buy form this seller again.



by:

New hose assembly fit perfect. Needed a hose a tad longer than what came on my camper. Mfg. of camper made hose slightly to short for my liking. Old hose was kinking.

George at etrailer kept me informed of the status of my order the whole time. Outstanding service from them.

  • Looking For Propane Hose Assembly Fairview Part I4TC20MP4QC4
    We do have a good option for you Jim. We do not carry the Fairview brand, but we do have the Propane Hose # 37207-30865 which is basically a direct equivalent of the Fairview I4TC20MP4QC4. The Propane Hose # 37207-30865 is a 20" long hose with a tank connection on one end and the 1/4" MNPT on the other. This is generally used for connecting an LP gas cylinder to a regulator.

  • Propane Pigtail Replacement for 2018 Surveyor 226RBDS
    If you can send me a picture of the pigtail you're trying to replace or the inlet on your regulator I can confirm this, but it sounds like you need a pigtail with an NPT fitting as opposed to the Male Inverted Flare. The NPT pigtail which matches the one you previously purchased is # 100473-24-MBS .

  • Camco Propane System Pigtail Replacement On a 2016 Forest River Salem Cruise Lite Travel Trailer
    Your Pigtail which is similar to our Camco Propane Supply Hose # CAM59153 has been tested by Camco to ensure that your propane system receives enough flow from the propane tank to the regulator to not have any flow rate issues. As the tank is high pressure and the regulator reduces to low pressure the flow is sufficient to feed the needs of your regulator on your 2016 Forest River Salem Cruise Lite Travel Trailer. The only impact the narrower design will have is that less propane will...

    Thanks for reaching out, Tara! In order to connect the MB Sturgis Vertical 2-Stage Propane Regulator # 108220 to your propane tank and your 2018 Zinger Lite you'll need the following hoses: - Pigtail # 100473-24-MBS (from tank to regulator) - Hose # 100383-48-MBS (this is 4' length but we have longer if needed) Please note you'll need the Thread Sealant Tape # 37207-30025 for both connections on the regulator.

  • Pigtail Harness for Propane System Between Regulator and Tank
    Sounds like you are looking for a pigtail hose for your propane system like the # 100473-24-MBS which is 2 feet long. This is what normally connects between the tanks and the regulator. If you need a different size check out the link I attached that has all of the pigtails we carry.

  • Availability of 15 inch Long Propane Tank Pig Tails
    I understand what you are saying and I think you are on the right track. A bit more length from the pig tail would allow the rubber line to be able to loop so that it could tuck down better. We have 15 inch pig tails like part # 100473-15-MBS or even 2 foot long sections like part # 100473-24-MBS.

  • How To Determine What Correct Propane Pigtail Is Needed
    To determine which pigtail will be right for you, you will first need to know what type of regulator you have. The two most common types of regulators is a standard two stage regulator like the MB Sturgis Vertical 2-Stage Propane Regulator # 108220, and an automatic changeover two stage regulator like the MB Sturgis High Capacity Two-Stage Auto Changeover Regulator # 888001-MBS. The standard two stage regulator will have one inlet, and requires a pigtail with an Acme and a 1/4" Male NPT...

  • Propane Regulator for MB Sturgis 100473 Propane Hose
    Yes, you can use the MB Sturgis 100473 hose with a replacement single-stage regulator, which is what it looks like you need based on your photo. For the regulator you will need the Camco Single Stage Propane Regulator # CAM59013. Then for the 100473 hose you can choose the one you need based on the length: - 12 inches: MB Sturgis Propane Hose - RV Type 1 with Back Check x 1/4" MPT # 100473-12 - 15 inches: MB Sturgis Propane Hose - RV Type 1 with Back Check x 1/4" MPT # 100473-15-MBS -...

  • Recommended Replacement Regulator for Auto-Changover Regulator that No Longer Functions Correctly
    It sounds like you do have a regulator problem and need to replace it. I recommend the Camco Automatic Changeover 2-Stage Propane Regulator for Dual Propane Tanks # CAM59005. This regulator features a gauge indicator to warn you the tank pressure is decreasing and you are running out of propane. There is a slight possibility that a pigtail may be bad or going bad. I recommend getting the MB Sturgis Propane Hose w/ Back Check # 100473-24-MBS for each side when replacing the regulator...

  • How To Attach a 100 Lb and 40 Lb Propane Tank to the MB Sturgis Vertical 2-Stage Propane Regulator
    In order to connect the MB Sturgis Vertical 2-Stage Propane Regulator part # 108220 to a 100 lb propane tank you will need the MB Sturgis Sturgi-Stay Propane Fill Hose part # 100019-24 and the MB Sturgis Propane Adapter Fitting part # 402258-MBS. In order to connect this same regulator to a 40 lb propane tank you will just need to use the MB Sturgis Propane Hose w/ Back Check part # 100473-24-MBS.

  • Replacement 24" Propane Pigtail for 30 lb. Bottle
    The connection needed to the propane is a type 1. I recommend the MB Sturgis Propane Pigtail - Stainless Overbraid, # 100833-24 with a Type 1 fitting that has an internal back-check and your needed 1/4" male inverted flare. We also have the MB Sturgis Propane Hose w/ Back Check, # 100473-24-MBS that is basically the same hose connection but without the overbraid. These are Made In USA products.

  • Recommended Propane Tank Regulator For A 20lb And 30lb Propane Tank
    No, the same regulator you would use on a 20lb tank can also be used on a 30lb tank. The factor to consider when choosing your regulator is the BTU and pressure ratings of the regulator so that you can ensure you're meeting the requirements for your appliances. The Camco Automatic Changeover 2-Stage Propane Regulator for Dual Propane Tanks # CAM59005 you were looking at can definitely be used with a both a 20lb and 30lb tank. You'll simply need two of the MB Sturgis Propane Hose # 100473-24-MBS....

  • Recommended High-Capacity Regulator For A 2022 Extreme Outdoors Micro Max
    For your 2022 Xtreme Outdoors Micro Max, I recommend going with the MB Sturgis High Capacity Two-Stage Auto Changeover Regulator # 888001-MBS. This is a high-capacity, auto-changeover regulator like what you're looking for, with a flow-capacity of 500,000 Btu per hour. Additionally, this regulator is made in the USA so you can be sure you're getting a quality part that'll work. You're also going to need a pigtail # 100473-24-MBS to connect your regulator to your propane tank.
