Dormont cssd54-12 Gas Connector 1/2 in 12 in 304L Ss

Product Description

The DORMONT cssd54-12 is a 1/2-inch flexible gas connector designed for connecting gas appliances to residential supply lines. Built from 304L stainless steel and finished with a polymer blend ProCoat yellow coating, this connector resists corrosion from common household cleaners, plumbing chemicals, masonry products, salt exposure, and UV rays. The MNPT x FNPT end configuration makes it compatible with standard threaded gas fittings. At 12 inches in length, it provides a practical reach for most residential appliance hookups. Licensed plumbers and gas fitters are the primary installers for this type of connector.

This connector is suited for residential gas appliance installations including ranges, dryers, and water heaters where a flexible corrugated stainless steel connector is required between the rigid supply line and the appliance. The ProCoat coating adds a layer of chemical and environmental protection, making it appropriate for installations in areas with exposure to cleaning agents or coastal salt air. The 12-inch length fits typical behind-appliance clearances in residential kitchens and utility rooms.

Installation Notes

Gas connector installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified gas fitter in accordance with local codes and IFGC requirements. Shut off the gas supply at the meter or service valve before disconnecting or installing any gas connector. Do not reuse an old flexible connector — replace with a new connector at every appliance reinstallation. Inspect threads for damage before making connections and apply an approved gas-rated thread sealant or tape to all male threads.
