This 18" propane pigtail connects a propane cylinder to a regulator via a POL fitting at the cylinder end and a W20 (5/8" LH) nut at the regulator end. It's used as a replacement hose for caravan, motorhome, domestic and commercial LPG setups, with both a non-return valve and an excess flow valve fitted for added protection.
The excess flow valve restricts gas flow automatically if it detects a rapid increase beyond safe limits, such as from a failed fitting or damage to the downstream hose. The non-return valve prevents backflow through the regulator, which matters particularly on auto-changeover systems where two cylinders are connected at once.
Manufactured in the UK to EN 16436-1 Class 3, the hose is rated to 30 bar working pressure with a 90 bar burst pressure, and approved by Calor Gas for use with propane. That approval can be useful where documented compliance is needed for habitation checks or insurance purposes.
Having both non-return and excess flow protection in a single hose assembly reduces the number of individual safety devices that need fitting and maintaining, and it's the type of specification that's often checked during a habitation report or gas safety inspection. As a Calor-approved, UK-manufactured product, it provides a documented history of compliance if that's ever needed. With a tested working pressure well above typical residential operating pressures, it offers a genuine safety margin rather than sitting close to the hose's operating limit.
