Propane T-Fitting with Quick Connect that can be Used After Propane Regulator

Question:

Do you have a t-fitting with a quick connect that I can add to my RV LP tanks below the regulator?

Technically you can use any T-fitting, including one like the MB Sturgis Sturgi-Stay T-Fitting for POL Valve # 103537-MBS before or after your propane regulator. The correct placement and T-fitting is going to depend on what you are trying to hook up.

More often than not you are going to want your T-fitting before the regulator. You do not want your propane to be double regulated because it is going to cause you to not have enough gas pressure for your appliances to work properly. Basically if the appliance you are using the T-fitting to run to has its own built in regulator (which is common), you will want the T-fitting prior to the regulator. If the appliance you are running the propane to does not have its own regulator then you would want to add the T-fitting after the regulator.
