Everflow FTGC-YC12-72C Gas Connector 72 Inches

Product Description

The EVERFLOW FTGC-YC12-72C is a yellow coated stainless steel flexible gas connector designed for connecting gas appliances to residential or light commercial gas supply lines. The connector features a 5/8 inch outer diameter with a 1/2 inch inner diameter and measures 72 inches in length, providing extended reach for installations where appliances are set back from the wall or where routing flexibility is required. End fittings are 1/2 inch FIP on one end and 1/2 inch MIP on the other. Plumbers and gas fitters install this type of connector during new appliance hookups or appliance replacements.

This gas connector is suited for residential and light commercial applications including gas ranges, dryers, water heaters, and space heaters where a flexible stainless steel connector is specified. The yellow coating identifies this as a gas-service connector in accordance with common field identification practices. The 72 inch length accommodates installations that require additional routing distance between the gas shutoff valve and the appliance inlet.

• 72 inch length for extended reach and flexible routing
• 5/8 inch OD / 1/2 inch ID corrugated flexible tubing
• 1/2 inch FIP x 1/2 inch MIP end fittings for direct connection to standard gas valves and appliance inlets

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install flexible gas connector for residential and light commercial gas appliances requiring a 1/2 inch FIP inlet connection and a 1/2 inch MIP appliance fitting with a 72 inch flexible run.

Installation Notes

Installation of gas connectors must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with local codes and IFGC requirements. Shut off the gas supply at the nearest upstream shutoff valve before disconnecting or connecting any gas line components. Do not over-bend or kink the flexible connector, and never route a flexible gas connector through walls, floors, or ceilings. Inspect fittings with leak detection solution after pressurizing the line before returning the appliance to service.
