Flexible propane line between regulator and hard pipe

Post by KYAvion »

A critter appears to have chewed on the flexible propane line between the regulator and the hard pipe. Has anyone replaced this line, and if so do you have a link to your replacement?

Anyone know if the size of the fittings on this hose is correct?

When I replaced mine, I bought a 3/8" line with 1/2" female connectors on both ends, Took the old pipe, hose and regulator with me to the hardware store, had them cut a pipe to length and thread the ends. Then fit it all together right there. I couldn't reuse the old pipe. We couldn't get the hose off the old pipe.
I needed two fittings to make it all fit up.

I would use something like this if I did it again. This one is 3/8". Perhaps they make them in 1/2"

Thank you all for the suggestions.

As far as the stainless braided hose, I suppose a 3/8 to 1/2 half adapter could be used.
