Easyflex EFGC-038-YE-1031-72 Gas Flex Connector Valve

Product Description

The EASYFLEX EFGC-038-YE-1031-72 is a flexible gas connector with an integrated shutoff valve, designed for connecting gas-fired appliances to supply lines in residential and light commercial installations. At 1/2 inch nominal diameter and 72 inches in length, this connector provides enough reach to accommodate installations where the appliance sits at a distance from the wall outlet or meter connection. Licensed plumbers and gas fitters install this type of connector during appliance hookup or replacement, relying on its flexibility to route around obstructions without field-fabricated rigid piping.

This connector is suited for use with natural gas or liquid propane appliances such as ranges, dryers, water heaters, and space heaters. The 72-inch length makes it practical in situations where a standard shorter connector does not reach, including appliances set away from the wall or in tight utility spaces. The integrated valve allows the installer to isolate the appliance without shutting off the broader gas supply, which is a convenience during servicing or appliance swaps.

Key Features

• 1/2 inch nominal diameter for standard residential gas appliance connections
• 72 inch length provides extended reach for flexible routing
• Integrated shutoff valve allows appliance isolation without full line shutdown
• Flexible construction allows routing around obstructions without rigid piping
• Designed for natural gas and liquid propane appliance hookup

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation flexible gas connector for residential and light commercial gas appliances requiring a 1/2 inch supply connection.

Installation Notes

Gas connector installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC). Shut off the main gas supply before disconnecting or connecting any gas line components. Verify all connections with an approved leak-detection solution after installation and before restoring gas flow. Never route a flexible gas connector through walls, floors, ceilings, or confined spaces where it cannot be inspected.
