A small part that earns its keep every time your propane system sits idle. This blue connector cap from MB Sturgis snaps over the male plug of a 1/4" 250 model quick disconnect propane hose, keeping out dirt, insects, moisture, and road debris that can foul your fittings and cause leak-prone connections down the road.
MB Sturgis has built a reputation in the RV and portable propane market for precision-fit accessories that work with their 250 series quick disconnect system. The 06-1447 cap is the correct protective cover for the male quick disconnect plug found on 1/4" 250 model propane hoses -- the same hoses commonly used with MB Sturgis bayonet-style QD fittings on grills, fire pits, portable appliances, and RV outdoor kitchens.
Without a cap in place, the male plug is exposed to grit, spider webs, and moisture every time the hose is disconnected. A contaminated fitting can prevent a proper seal when you reconnect, or worse, contribute to a slow leak. This cap is the simple, correct fix.
Designed specifically for the 1/4" 250 model quick disconnect male plug -- no adapter or tape needed.
Blocks dirt, insects, spider webs, and moisture from entering the male plug between uses.
Manufactured domestically by MB Sturgis, a dedicated propane accessory brand.
Weighs just 0.05 lbs -- easy to keep a spare in your RV toolbox or camp kit.
MB Sturgis 250 model quick disconnects are bayonet-style, tool-free propane fittings rated for low-pressure LP gas service. The male plug attaches to the hose; the female socket mounts to the appliance stub or bulkhead. The 1/4" designation refers to the nominal fitting size. This cap protects the hose-end male plug when the hose is disconnected and stored.
