Need propane hose

I have a new 100# propane tank I need to add to my existing tanks. I need a 10-12 foot hose to do it. All the extend-a-stay kits I've found only have a 5-6 foot hose. The hose must have the older style brass fitting as the tank has a valve with internal left hand threads.

Any suggestions?

    Thanks all, I ordered the one Darsben found. I will be using in in Carlsbad NM with a 2010 population of over 26000 but I know there are a lot more with all of the oilfield activity there. There must be 1500 campers around the area supporting the work activity. THERE IS ONLY ONE PLACE IN TOWN, I HAVE FOUND, TO BUY PROPANE! The line is sometimes 20 deep when it gets cold, thus the 100# bottle. This will be a big help.


    Bought that last year so far so good in Arizona. I use it on a 100 LB tank

  • I had a 15' made up with a standard POL on one end and a male 1 1/4 ACME (same as a regular 30lb tank fitting} on the other end. Just connect in place of one bottle and still have switch over to allow changing out 100 pounder. No problems with undoing and rethreading fittings.
    Art.
  • You can make your own too, just buy the fittings, and use the hi pressure fuel injection hose from an auto supply. And the automotive hose is higher quality, and will far outlast any "propane" hose.
  • Check with Barbeque parts supplier. I needed a 25 footer and found one at one of the Barbeque parts suppliers. So I know they are available. I think my supplier would have custom made me one if necessary.
