Suburban High Pressure Propane Hose, 1/4" ID x 3/8" FPT, 3/8" Female Flare Swivel, 72"

Connect your propane tank to your RV's two-stage regulator over longer runs with the Suburban LP-PT72HP 72" High-Pressure Propane Hose. This 6-foot high-pressure hose features a 3/8" female pipe thread (FPT) on one end and a 3/8" female flare swivel on the other, with built-in thermal protection — designed for installations where the tank-to-regulator distance is longer than a standard 24" pigtail can reach.

What This Hose Does

The LP-PT72HP is a high-pressure propane hose for connecting your propane tank to your RV's two-stage regulator over a longer distance:

• End 1: 3/8" female pipe thread (FPT)
• End 2: 3/8" female flare swivel
• Length: 72" (6 feet)
• Inside Diameter: 1/4"
• Pressure: High pressure (pre-regulator side)

Built-In Thermal Protection

The LP-PT72HP includes thermal protection — a safety feature that helps prevent dangerous fuel flow in the event of a fire or extreme heat at the tank or fitting. That's a meaningful safety upgrade over basic propane hoses without thermal protection, and aligns with modern RV safety standards.

When to Use a 72" High-Pressure Hose

A 6' propane hose is typically the right choice for:

• Longer tank-to-regulator runs where a standard 24" pigtail won't reach

Need a Longer Hose?

If 72" isn't long enough for your tank-to-regulator run, the Suburban LP-PT144HP 144" High-Pressure Propane Hose is the longer 12-foot sibling — same 3/8" FPT × 3/8" female flare swivel connections and thermal protection in a longer length for extended runs.

• Installations with tanks mounted away from the regulator location (under a slide-out, in a side compartment, etc.)
• Replacement of an existing 72" high-pressure hose
• Custom installations where flexibility in routing matters

If you need a shorter hose with Type 1 ACME (the modern hand-tightenable green knob connection on most propane tanks), see the Dicor/Suburban LP-PT24F 24" propane pigtail instead.

Direct Replacement for Worn Hoses

Propane hoses should be inspected regularly and replaced periodically — most manufacturers recommend replacement every 5-7 years or sooner if you notice cracking, brittleness, or any sign of damage. The LP-PT72HP is a straightforward replacement for worn or aging 72" propane hoses with matching connection types, restoring your propane system to safe operating condition.

⚠️ Professional Installation Recommended

Propane connections should be installed and tested by a qualified service technician to ensure proper leak-free operation. Improperly installed propane hardware is a fire and explosion risk. Always pressure-test connections after installation.
