Propane Adapter Question

[FSS]

Could someone provide me with the proper name for one of the fittings please? It's the fitting with the brass cap at the elbow of the tee. It's a male 1-20 throw away thread fitting but it also is incorporated into a coupler (might not be the proper term?). It's one piece and allows the two other fittings to be threaded into the base. For the life of me I can not find the part online.

Thanks

According to my RV catalogue, it is a Sturgi 90 degree Propane TEE. Check in the Propane section of the catalogue for other possible configurations too.

I think Pulltoy has it correct. Try this on for size: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Camco-RV-90-Degree-Brass-Propane-Tee-with-12-Hose/29764654

You got it, although it's marked as a Camco item in the Go-RV catalog, pages 384 and 385.

(Every RV owner should have the Go-RV catalog bookmarked. It's invaluable in finding these things. https://www.go-rv.com)

Steve, I was perusing the catalog and found that the same part on Go-RV is $123.00. Is that their normal markup or did we just pick out an exception. Even Camping World isn't twice as high as Wally World.

I just use Go-RV to identify stuff and then shop elsewhere. I agree that it is way overpriced in this case.

Thank's for your time with this guys. However, it's not the entire tee that I'm looking for but only the throw away thread fitting, the fitting at the 90 degree which has the brass cap on it. I have the part that you have named and found for me, but I only need to replace the one fitting.

That's not it neither. Maybe it's not obvious in the pic I posted, or maybe I'm not explaining it very clearly. The fitting I'm looking for is the one with the brass cap, it acts as a coupler also. The female (opposite hand propane tank thread) and the male propane tank fitting on either side of that fitting thread into the base of the fitting I'm looking for. I'm not sure how else to describe it.

If you look at were the black plastic piece that tethers the brass cap to the fitting is, the fitting isn't threaded into the coupler underneath, but is one piece.

 

[FSS]

Maybe this pic will show it better.

 

[Javi]

So what thread is on the coupler? Or is it just a block 1-20 male with a threaded block Tee...

Pretty sure the 1-20 is threaded in also..

 

[FSS]

The 1-20 is not threaded into the block. It's one piece. The only threads on the block are fitted with the POL adapter and the type 1 adapter.

 

[FSS]

This should show the threads and that the 1-20 is one piece.

so.....

I don't want to buy the whole tee with all 3 fittings, I only want to replace ONE fitting that has failed. The link you included has all 3 fittings assembled to form the 90 degree tee. I only need the one fitting. If I haven't been clear, please let me know.

Clear as mud finally... good luck

Check a welding supply store. They carry that kind of stuff. If they don't have it, they can order it

 

[Pull Toy]

Have you tried your local LP gas supplier or plumbing store? They might be able to supply indivual parts. The catalogues tend to supply assemblies.

 

[FSS]

Yeah,thanks. I had planned the LP supply store but I was hoping to figure out the name of the fitting before I went in and also research some prices.

Cheers
