MB SturgisUL569 CertifiedLP & Natural GasMB Sturgis 06-1390 -- 3/8" Thermo Plastic LP Gas Hose Assembly, 48"

The MB Sturgis 06-1390 is a 48-inch thermo plastic hose assembly purpose-built for connecting a two-stage propane regulator to the permanent gas piping system on RVs, travel trailers, and fifth wheels. With a 350 PSI pressure rating, UL569 certification, and a wide service temperature range, this hose is a reliable, code-compliant choice for both new installations and regulator replacements.

The Right Hose for Your RV Regulator Connection

Propane system integrity starts at the regulator connection. The MB Sturgis 06-1390 provides a flexible, durable link between the two-stage regulator outlet and the coach's fixed LP piping. The thermo plastic construction resists the UV exposure, moisture, and road vibration that RV propane lines routinely experience.

At 48 inches, this hose gives enough reach to accommodate most standard regulator-to-manifold runs while keeping the assembly neat and routed away from heat sources. The pre-installed 3/8" MNPT x 1/2" Female Flare Swivel fittings match the most common two-stage regulator outlets and LP piping inlets found on production RVs.

350 PSI Pressure Rating

Exceeds normal RV LP system operating pressures, providing a robust safety margin for typical two-stage regulator installations.

UL569 Certified

Listed for use with both LP and natural gas, meeting the Underwriters Laboratories standard for pigtails and flexible connectors.

Wide Temperature Range

Rated from -40F to 140F (-40C to 60C), making it suitable for year-round full-timing in cold northern climates or hot desert camping.

Pre-Installed Swivel Fittings

Ships ready to install -- no extra fittings needed for standard regulator-to-fixed-pipe connections. The swivel end prevents hose twist during tightening.

Fitting Breakdown

Understanding the two ends of this hose prevents installation errors:

  • 3/8" MNPT (Male National Pipe Thread): Connects to the outlet port of most two-stage LP regulators. This end threads directly into a female NPT port on the regulator.
  • 1/2" Female Flare Swivel: Connects to the 1/2" male flare fitting on the coach's permanent LP piping or manifold. The swivel design allows you to tighten without twisting the hose body.
Ready to Install: Both fittings are factory-installed and pressure-tested. No additional adapters are needed for the most common two-stage regulator to fixed-pipe application on production RVs.

Typical RV Applications

  • Connecting dual-stage LP regulators to the coach manifold on travel trailers and fifth wheels
  • Replacing an aging or cracked original-equipment propane hose at the regulator connection point
  • Custom LP system builds requiring a UL569-rated flexible connector at the low-pressure side of the regulator
  • Service and repair work where the original hose shows cracking, hardening, or fitting corrosion
Inspection Tip: LP hoses should be inspected at least once per season for surface cracking, brittleness, kinks, or fitting corrosion. A hose that shows any of these signs should be replaced before the next trip, regardless of age.
Installation Note: Always use an approved pipe thread sealant (LP-rated, not standard PTFE tape alone) on the 3/8" MNPT end. Tighten the 1/2" flare connection hand-tight plus a quarter to half turn -- over-tightening can damage the flare seat. After installation, perform a full leak test with soapy water or an approved LP leak detection solution before lighting any appliances.
Maintenance Reminder: Route the hose away from sharp edges, exhaust components, and areas where road debris could cause abrasion. Secure with appropriate LP-rated clamps or clips to prevent excessive movement while towing.

Important Information
  • This hose is rated for LP (propane) and natural gas only -- do not use with other fuels or gases.
  • Maximum working pressure is 350 PSI. Do not use on high-pressure (first-stage) regulator inlets or directly at the cylinder valve.
  • Temperature limits are -40F to 140F. Do not route near exhaust, engines, or other high-heat sources that could exceed this limit.
  • Inspect the hose before every trip. Replace immediately if cracking, kinking, hardening, or fitting damage is observed.
  • This hose assembly is sold individually and does not include regulators, additional fittings, or mounting hardware.
  • Installation must comply with applicable NFPA 58 and local codes. When in doubt, have a certified LP technician perform the connection.
  • Always perform a leak test after installation using an approved LP leak detection solution -- never use an open flame to check for leaks.
