Camco 8401259 Propane Extension Hose 12 Inches

Product Description

The CAMCO 8401259 is a 12-inch propane extension hose designed to extend the reach between a propane cylinder and a connected appliance or distribution fitting. It features a male 1-20 swivel cylinder thread on one end and a female 1-20 swivel cylinder thread on the other, allowing secure, leak-resistant connections to standard propane cylinders and fittings. This hose is used in propane gas supply setups where additional hose length is needed between the cylinder and the regulator or distribution point. Installation is straightforward and does not require specialized tools beyond a wrench for tightening the swivel fittings.

This extension hose is suited for residential and light commercial propane applications, including outdoor cooking equipment, portable heaters, and multi-appliance setups. The 1-20 swivel thread pattern is a standard propane cylinder connection type, making this hose compatible with typical portable cylinder valves and distribution accessories. It can be connected inline with a Tee, Y-fitting, or distribution tree to supply multiple appliances from a single cylinder source.

Key Features

• Male 1-20 swivel cylinder thread on one end for standard cylinder or fitting attachment
• Female 1-20 swivel cylinder thread on the opposite end for inline connection
• Compatible with Tee, Y-fitting, or distribution tree configurations
• Swivel fittings allow easier hand-tightening and alignment during installation
• Extends propane supply line reach in portable or fixed propane setups

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1-20 propane cylinder valves and fittings, including Tee, Y, and distribution tree accessories that use the same thread standard.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with propane gas systems and applicable codes such as NFPA 58. Always close the cylinder valve and verify zero pressure in the line before connecting or disconnecting the hose. Use a leak-detection solution on all threaded connections after assembly to confirm a gas-tight seal. Do not overtighten swivel fittings, as this can damage the sealing surfaces.
