  • MB Sturgis

Hook up an auxiliary tank to your RV to provide propane in case your primary runs dry during long campouts and get extra versatility in your propane system. Provides you with a #600 (1"-20) outlet for cooking without disposable cylinders.


Features:

  • T-fitting lets you connect a backup auxiliary cylinder to your fifth-wheel or travel trailer propane system
    • No need to break up camp to go refill your onboard ASME tank
  • Model 250 quick-disconnect port let you hook up and disconnect without hand tightening
    • When valve on your ASME tank is closed, can function as an inlet for an auxiliary tank
    • When valve on your tank is open, can finction as a QD outlet to fuel an appliance
  • Male #600 (1"-20) port attaches to extension hose to fuel appliances
    • Eliminates need for wasteful disposable cylinders that quickly run out of gas
  • Shut-off levers on quick-disconnect ports allow you to easily shut off gas supply
    • Ball valve prevents disconnection when lever is in the "on" position to keep gas contained
  • Durable brass fittings approved for LP gas only
    • UL and CSA certified
  • Made in the USA


Specs:

  • Temperature range: -40 F to 350 F
  • Maximum pressure rating: 250 psi
  • 1-Year limited warranty


Note: When using quick-disconnect ports for cooking, bear in mind that the propane pressure is still high, as the Sturgi-Stay is installed before the regulator. Outdoor cooktops, grills, or other appliances will often require a regulator. Check your equipment to see if one is required.


Quick Disconnect Fitting Diagram

Make camping more fun and relaxing. Moving your 5th-wheel camper or travel trailer once you've gotten settled at the campsite is a real chore. No one wants to have to pack up, unplug, and go refill the propane cylinders, just to come back to the site and set everything up all over again. This Sturgi-Stay T-fitting lets you connect an auxiliary cylinder to your setup using a quick-disconnect fill hose (sold separately). As a result, you can run your appliances off of the propane in the cylinder rather than using up the LP gas from your trailer's setup. When you run out, just refill the auxiliary cylinder and hook it up again.


The disposable cylinder port on the Sturgi-Stay provides a connection point for a small, portable appliance or propane tree. This way you can power a grill, heater, or other accessory without needing to use a 1-lb throwaway cylinder. Simply attach an adapter hose (sold separately) to your appliance and then to the disposable cylinder port on the T-fitting.


Quick Disconnect Port

QDs

The Sturgi-Stay features a quick-disconnect port that connects to the fill hose (sold separately) from your auxiliary cylinder. This quick-disconnect port lets you connect and disconnect a hose without any tools. Simply snap the quick-disconnect hose into the port and it will stay locked in until you release it. To remove the hose, just pull back on the collar of the port. The port also features a gas shut-off lever that allows you to completely cut off the propane supply to that port to keep gas contained when no hose is attached. Be sure to move the lever to the "off" position before disconnecting the hose.

These Sturgi-Stays work well for expanding a RV propane distribution system without being limited to regulator BTU/H limit. We put one on both our RV propane tanks. Details of this RV modification and many others may be found here if interested:

Is exactly what I was looking for.
My
grill has a regulator, so connecting to the quick connect on my trailer does not work. Now I can quick connect without having to modify my grill.

I am very happy with this product. After 1 year it is still working perfectly.



by:

Great and fast shipping



by:

This is everything I’ve been looking for all wrapped up in one simple fitting.



by:

Excellent presales support in answering all of my questions. Products worked as decribed. I use these product to connect my portable grill to the 30 lb LP tank on my 5th wheel, rather than use disposable LP bottles.



by:

Like all MB Sturgis products, this is a high quality, well built piece of hardware. It performs exactly as advertised and the delivery by eTrailer was quick and exactly on-time. Price was competitive.



by:

This a great valve for adding a BBQ grill directly off the propane tank in your trailer. It works as described and its easy to install.



by:

Product as described. Good communications. Product had a slight delay from the manufaturer and communication was prompt and keep me updated. A pleasure to business with and good price.



by:

A must have for your camper!! make sure you buy them with the 90 deg angle, so the can fit under your LP cover

Great communication and quality service.

This unit does what it says it will however I think there is room for improvement. To use this system you need three wrenches on hand. A 7/8 for the hose to the gas cylinder, a 1/2" for removing the plug from the fitting and a 7/16 for the hose to the fitting connection. Why not make them both 7/16"? When you remove the hose you need to be very careful not to allow the ends to hit the dirt, why not have little caps on both ends to keep them clean when not in use. Again, it works but engineering wise could use some work for the price. This allowed us to use 20lb cylinders that cost 3.45 per gallon to fill vs 3.65 and moving the rig everytime the big tank got low.



by:

Arrived as described. Disappointed to discover that etrailer.com does not carry mounting brackets for their regulators, but I welcomed the opportunity to dust off my diy skills. Note the bailing wire. Super pro! Also, if anyone knows what happens when one uses a vertical regulator horizontally, I'm all ears.



by:

I've had these on my other RVs. Be careful and check for leaks, usualy around the valve stems. They claim they are rated up to 250psi but the fittings are marked at only 1/2psi. Whats up with that?



by:

I ordered this to save money on the 1 lb green tanks. Well it worked great for the first 10 months! It leaks around the on and off valves!! So I removed it before we had a bigger issue as this was connected to my propane tank under my Class A Motorhome.



by:

The problem I was having was orange flame on the stove. Looking on line it said that was caused by a defective propane regulator. We were using a humidifier, with the humidifier turn on we got orange flames with the humidifier turned off blue flames.

  • How to Connect Smoke Hollow 205 Grill with Built-In Regulator to Trailer Propane Quick Disconnect
    I do have a way for you to hook your Smoke Hollow 205 Grill to the propane system on your trailer, however you won't be able to remove/replace its built-in regulator since the control knob is built on top of it. There isn't a knob available by itself that could replace this. What you will need to do is keep the regulator on the grill but tee into the propane tank on your trailer before its own regulator. To do this you can use a combination of the MB Sturgis T-Fitting # 103613-MBS and...

  • How Can I Connect My Blackstone Grill to my Trailer Using a Quick Disconnect
    You will be able to connect your Blackstone to your 2020 Grand Design Imagine Travel Trailer but you won't be able to go directly to the quick disconnect like you want. Since the Blackstone has its own regulator and a proprietary connection and you can't regulate the gas twice, you need to tee into your trailer's system before the regulator. To do this, use the MB Sturgis Sturgi T-Fitting # 103613-MBS to tee into your system before your existing regulator. You can choose a hose from the...

  • Grill Compatibility That Uses 1LB Throw Away Cylinders With RV Camper Quick Connect Propane
    The quick connects for propane systems can be used with either high pressure or low pressure propane systems. The quick connect on your RV is going to be low pressure and will not work with your grill that uses a 1lb tank as it has a regulator of its own for the high pressure propane. You will be able to use the MB Sturgis Propane Adapter Hose # 100476-120-MBS if you place the MB Sturgis Sturgi-Stay T-Fitting # 103613-MBS on one of your propane tanks on the front of your camper.

  • Parts Needed to Use Coleman RoadTrip X-Cursion Grill With Camper Propane Tank
    You can use your Coleman RoadTrip X-Cursion grill with the 30 gallon tank on your camper. Since the grill has a built in regulator, you will need to install the MB Sturgis Sturgi-Stay T-Fitting # 103613-MBS. This will allow you to access the propane before it reaches the regulator on your camper. Then you can use the # 100476-72-MBS (6' hose) or # 100476-120-MBS (10' hose) to connect to your grill.

  • Propane Hose and Adapter to Change a Weber Q2200 to a Quick Connect Style
    From what I could find on your Weber Q2200, it has a disposably cylinder connection. Since there is already a regulator on your grill, I wouldn't recommend using the Camco Propane Hose w/ Shut-Off Valve # CAM57629. You cannot double regulate propane and I wouldn't recommend removing the regulator from the grill if it can be avoided. Instead I would use the MB Sturgis Propane Adapter Hose # 100476-72-MBS to connect to your grill and then the MB Sturgis Sturgi-Stay T-Fitting # 103613-MBS...

You mentioned the hose, but you can add a length with a shut-off like the Camco Quick-Connect to Quick-Connect Propane Hose - 3' Long # CAM57280. To add a second appliance, a T-connection at that location will not work well. You instead will want to run a T-fitting earlier in your system and then run another hose for your grill.

  • Can Quick Disconnects be Installed Before Regulator
    Yes, you can install quick disconnects before a regulator by using a tee. The right one will depend on if you have a Type 1 valve (typically on trailer propane tanks) or POL (which is typically on motorhomes). For example, there is the MB Sturgis Sturgi-Stay T-Fitting for Type 1 Valve - Quick Disconnect and Disposable Cylinder Ports # 103613-MBS or the MB Sturgis Sturgi-Stay T-Fitting for POL Valve - 2 Model 250 Quick Disconnect Ports # 103537-MBS.

  • Dimensions of MB Stugis Sturgi-Stay T-Fitting
    Essentially the Tee of the MB Stugis Sturgi-Stay, part # 103615, is 2-3/4 inches by 4-3/4 inches by 5 inches. I'll do my best to explain which measurement is which. Take a look at the picture I attached as well. If something doesn't make sense let me know. End to end of the disposable cylinder connection is 2-3/4 inches End to end of the Type 1 connections is 4-3/4 inches End to end of the Quick Disconnect is 5 inches The Tee by itself is part # 103613-MBS.

The line that would go to the interior of the trailer would be the # 100040-144-MBS for the burner.
