Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

  • Universal extension hose for propane lines equipped with standard 3/8-inch flare fittings. Connects in-line to extend the length of an existing hose.

Compatibility & Fitment

  • Fits propane appliances with 3/8-inch male or female flare connections.
  • Compatible with gas grills, RV propane systems, fire pits, smokers, and portable heaters requiring a 3/8-inch flare connection.
  • Verify your appliance's connection size and type is 3/8-inch flare before purchase.

When to Replace

  • Visible damage such as cracks, cuts, or abrasions on the hose exterior.
  • Hose material has become brittle, stiff, or excessively soft.
  • Corrosion, damage, or stripping on the brass fittings.
  • Gas leaks are detected at any point along the hose or at the connections (verify with a soapy water test).

Installation Tips

  • Ensure the propane tank valve is fully closed before installation.
  • Hand-tighten fittings initially to prevent cross-threading.
  • Use a wrench to tighten connections an additional 1/4 to 1/2 turn for a secure seal. Do not over-tighten.
  • After installation, turn the gas supply on and apply a soapy water solution to all connections to check for leaks. Bubbles indicate a leak that must be corrected.
  • Position the hose to avoid contact with hot surfaces, sharp edges, or areas of heavy foot traffic.
  • Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the hose during and after installation.

FAQ

This hose is used to extend an existing propane connection where one side accepts a 3/8-inch male flare fitting and the other side needs a 3/8-inch female flare connection. It is commonly used on propane appliances, regulators, and gas supply lines that already use 3/8-inch flare-style fittings. Match the fitting type and size on both ends before ordering, since flare fittings are not interchangeable with pipe-thread connections.
Check the connection type on your current gas line or regulator, not just the appliance brand. This extension is for systems using 3/8-inch flare fittings on both ends, with one female flare and one male flare. If your appliance uses quick-connect, POL, QCC1/Type 1, or NPT pipe threads, this hose will not connect directly without the correct adapter.
A flare fitting seals at the angled metal flare surfaces, while pipe thread seals on the threads themselves. With flare fittings, thread seal tape or pipe dope is typically not used on the flare seat. Using the wrong fitting type can cause leaks or damage the connection, so confirm that both mating ends are 3/8-inch flare fittings before installation.
Replace the hose if you notice cracking, kinks, abrasion, corrosion at the fittings, gas odor, hissing, or bubbles during a leak test. Intermittent burner performance can also point to a restricted or damaged hose, especially if the appliance worked properly before and the regulator and burner are in good condition.
Installation is usually straightforward if the fittings match. In most cases, you only need two appropriately sized wrenches to hold one fitting steady while tightening the other. Shut off the propane supply first, connect the hose without cross-threading, then reopen the gas and perform a leak check with a soap-and-water solution. Typical installation time is about 10 to 20 minutes.
For standard flare connections, sealant is generally not used on the flare sealing surfaces. The seal is made by the flare seat, not by the threads. If any part of your system uses pipe-thread adapters, follow the appliance or gas-system manufacturer's guidance for those threaded joints, but do not apply sealant to the flare seat itself.
Inspect the regulator, appliance inlet, and existing gas line for damaged threads, dirt, oil, and worn sealing surfaces. Make sure the hose routing will avoid sharp bends, hot surfaces, moving parts, and pinch points. After installation, always test all joints for leaks before normal operation.
Common causes include weather exposure, heat, vibration, repeated bending, overtightening, cross-threading, and corrosion at the fittings. Even a braided exterior can be damaged if the hose is twisted during installation or routed too close to burners or exhaust heat. Proper support and careful routing help extend service life.
