The Gaslow Easy-Fit 450mm Propane Gas Pigtail (01-6045) connects a propane cylinder to a regulator using a handwheel POL fitting at the cylinder end, so cylinders can be swapped by hand without a spanner. It's a straight-through (ST) design, so there's no non-return valve fitted — the handwheel is purely for quick, tool-free connection.
Made from rubber rather than stainless steel or braided hose, it's built to EN 16436-1 Class 3 and rated to 30 bar working pressure with a 90 bar burst pressure. At 450mm, it's sized to the standard length required for cylinders housed inside a caravan or motorhome gas locker.
On some 3.9kg cylinders, valve height can restrict how the handwheel operates, so it's worth checking fit against your specific cylinder before relying on it for regular swaps. As with other rubber hoses, it should be checked regularly and is generally recommended for replacement after around 5 years of service.
The handwheel fitting removes the need for a spanner at the cylinder end, which is a genuine time-saver for anyone changing cylinders regularly, and the hose is built to the same EN 16436-1 Class 3 standard used across the wider pigtail range. At 450mm, it's the standard length specified for cylinders housed inside a gas locker, and Gaslow's established reputation in caravan gas fittings adds some reassurance for a component that gets handled often.
