Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

  • Universal adapter hose for refilling 1 lb propane cylinders. Fits standard QCC1/Type 1 and 1" x 20 throwaway cylinder connections.

Compatibility & Fitment

  • Tank Connection: QCC1 / Type 1 connector for standard 5 lb to 40 lb propane tanks.
  • Appliance Connection: 1 inch x 20 female throwaway cylinder thread for 1 lb propane bottles.
  • Applications: Ideal for camping, tailgating, heating, and outdoor cooking needs requiring 1 lb cylinders.

When to Replace

  • Visible cracks, brittleness, or abrasions on the hose material.
  • Gas leaks detected from the hose or fittings (use a soapy water solution to test).
  • Corroded or damaged brass fittings that prevent a secure connection.
  • The control valve is stuck or does not fully open or close.
  • The pressure gauge is damaged or provides inaccurate readings.

Installation Tips

  • Always perform refills in a well-ventilated outdoor area away from flames or ignition sources.
  • To facilitate transfer, place the source tank in a warmer location and chill the empty 1 lb cylinder for several minutes before filling.
  • Ensure the source tank is placed upside down to transfer liquid propane.
  • Connect the QCC1 fitting to the large tank and the 1" x 20 thread to the 1 lb bottle. Hand-tighten all connections.
  • Slowly open the valve on the large tank, then use the adapter's control valve to start the flow.
  • Monitor the filling process and close both valves once complete. Do not overfill; 80% capacity is recommended for safety.
  • Check all connections for leaks with a soapy water solution before and after refilling.

FAQ

This hose is designed to refill standard 1 lb propane bottles from a larger propane tank in the 5 lb to 40 lb range. It is intended as an extension refill hose for transferring propane from a bulk cylinder to small portable bottles, with an inline gauge and an ON/OFF control valve to help manage the process.
The gauge provides a visual indication of pressure in the line so you can monitor the transfer setup, while the ON/OFF valve lets you start and stop flow at the hose without immediately disconnecting fittings. This can make the refill process more controlled and helps reduce sudden release of propane when changing bottles.
This type of hose is useful if you already have a larger propane tank and want to refill portable 1 lb bottles used for camp stoves, heaters, lanterns, grills, or other small propane appliances. It is especially helpful when a rigid adapter is inconvenient, or when you want added reach, a shutoff valve, and a pressure gauge during filling.
Setup is usually straightforward. In most cases, you hand-thread the hose fittings to the larger propane tank and the 1 lb bottle, then use the control valve during the filling process. No special tools are typically required if the threads are in good condition. Before opening the valve, make sure all connections are seated properly and check for leaks with a soap-and-water solution.
Inspect the hose for cuts, cracking, abrasion, or damaged fittings. Confirm the valve operates smoothly and that the gauge is intact. Check connection threads on both the bulk tank and 1 lb bottle for damage or debris. After connecting, test for leaks with soapy water before opening the valve. Always refill outdoors in a well-ventilated area, away from flames, sparks, or hot surfaces.
Common causes include low fuel level in the source tank, cold-weather pressure issues, damaged or dirty threads, a bottle valve problem, overfill prevention behavior, or opening the valve too quickly. A worn seal or restricted flow path can also reduce transfer. If filling performance is poor, stop and inspect the bottle, hose fittings, valve operation, and source tank condition.
Check that the bottle is designed to be refilled if you plan to reuse it, and inspect it for rust, dents, thread damage, valve damage, or signs of previous leaking. Do not use bottles that appear compromised. Also verify local laws and regulations regarding refilling and transporting small propane cylinders, since requirements can vary by location.
A 3-foot hose adds flexibility when positioning the larger tank and the small bottle during transfer. It can reduce strain on the tank connection, make handling easier in tighter spaces, and provide a more convenient angle for monitoring the gauge and operating the shutoff valve.
