Gaslow Easy-Fit 450mm Propane Stainless Steel Gas Pigtail – POL x W20 (01-6040-SS)
The Gaslow Easy-Fit 450mm Propane Stainless Steel Gas Pigtail (01-6040-SS) connects a propane cylinder to a 30mbar regulator in a caravan or motorhome, using a handwheel POL fitting at the cylinder end so it can be disconnected and reconnected by hand without a spanner. It's a straight-through (ST) design, with no non-return valve fitted — the handwheel is purely for quick, tool-free connection.
Built from stainless steel rather than rubber, it's designed for a longer service life and carries a 20-year warranty, considerably longer than the 5-year cover typical of rubber pigtails in the range. It's built to EN 16436-1 Class 3, rated to 30 bar working pressure with a 90 bar burst pressure.
The rubber washers used at each connection point should be replaced every 2-3 years as part of routine servicing, since these aren't covered by the 20-year hose warranty. At 450mm, it matches the standard length most gas lockers are designed around.

Why Buy This Product?
Stainless steel construction gives this pigtail a much longer service life than a rubber equivalent, backed by a 20-year warranty on the hose itself. The handwheel fitting keeps cylinder changes quick and tool-free, and it's built to the same EN 16436-1 Class 3 standard as the rest of the Gaslow range. Regular washer replacement every 2-3 years is a small maintenance step for a hose designed to outlast several rubber pigtails over its lifetime.
