I have an existing Propane gas line from an outside 100 gal tank to my fireplace gas logs.
I recently installed a tee and a second short black pipe gas line to a second garage area which
will be used for some woodworking and misc. I purchased a Big Buddy 18,000 BTU space heater.
I also got the Buddy 10 ft hose. The problem is that the buddy hose connects to the heater fine,
However the other end is a reverse flange which will connect to the inside of a small 20gal propane tank,
as i mentioned i need to connect this hose to a 1\2" black pipe valve, or simply black pipe.
Is there a name for the adapter or style valve I need or what are the specifications,
Thanks in Advance,
Fred

Thanks Jeff,

BUT, my hose has a tapered, threaded male connection. (it screws into a small propane tank)
Item 49373 does not have a female thread.

Hey, wait a minute.

This is awkward, but...
