It connects to an existing propane supply that terminates in a 3\/8 inch male flare, giving you a short, clean run between your regulated LP line and an appliance. No regulator, no thermal protection, just a straightforward feed hose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSometimes you don't need a whole new propane system. You just need to bridge the last few feet between your regulated supply and the appliance you're feeding. That's exactly what the Camco 59913 is built for. It's a 3-foot feed hose with a 3\/8 inch female flare fitting on each end, sized to thread onto an existing propane supply line that ends in a 3\/8 inch male flare. Short, simple, and made to fit the standard flare connections you'll already find on most RV and marine LP setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere's the important part, and we'll be straight with you about it. This hose does not include a regulator, and it doesn't have thermal protection built in. It's a feed hose, not a complete supply kit. That means it's meant to run downstream of a regulator that's already stepping your tank pressure down to appliance level. If your system is already regulated and you just need to extend or replace the flexible section between that regulated line and a stove, cooktop, heater, or grill fitting, this is the piece you're after. If you're building a system from scratch and don't have a regulator in place yet, you'll need to add one separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth ends being 3\/8 inch female flare makes this an easy drop-in for the connections most LP appliances and supply stubs use. The female flare seats onto the male flare fitting, and a quick turn with a wrench snugs it down against the flare seat. Three feet is a handy length for a direct run, like tank-to-stove on a compact galley or a short jump between a bulkhead fitting and an appliance. On a 25 to 30 foot sailboat with a tight galley, that 3-foot run usually lands right where you need it. On a larger boat or a longer appliance run, you may find 3 feet forces a tighter bend than you'd like, so measure your route before you commit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA few install notes from people who've done this more than once. Seat both flares fully and torque them properly. Under-tightening a flare is the most common cause of a slow leak at the connection, and over-tightening in the past can crush the flare seat and cause the same problem later. After you make up both ends, run a soap-and-water test over each flare with the gas on and look for bubbles. No bubbles, you're good. Keep the hose routed away from engine heat and sharp edges, because propane hose can kink or degrade if it's pressed against a hot surface or bent hard around a corner. On a tight install, a pair of 90 degree flare elbow adapters can take the strain off the hose and give you a cleaner path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne thing worth knowing if you're a liveaboard or you carry survey-driven insurance. Because this hose doesn't include thermal protection, some surveyors flag that on boats where the propane locker and appliance share space with living quarters. It's not a knock on the hose, it's just a spec to be aware of when you're matching parts to your boat's requirements. If your setup calls for a thermal shutoff, plan that into the system separately. And if you're clamping the hose anywhere along its run, use propane-rated marine hardware, not generic automotive clamps that rust out in a damp bilge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the money, the Camco 59913 does one job and does it cleanly. It's the short, flexible feed hose that connects your regulated 3\/8 inch male flare supply to the appliance side, nothing more and nothing less. Match it to a system that's already regulated, seat the flares right, soap-test the connections, and you've got a tidy propane run that'll serve you season after season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-foot length gives you a short, clean run between a regulated supply and your appliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch female flare fitting on both ends fits standard RV and marine LP flare connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConnects to an existing propane supply that terminates in a 3\/8 inch male flare\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo regulator built in, so it drops in downstream of your existing regulated line\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFemale-flare-to-female-flare design makes it a direct swap for most appliance feed runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlexible hose routes around bulkheads and into tight galley spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCamco part number 59913 for easy reordering and matching to your existing gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Camco reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eDoes this hose come with a regulator?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eNo. The 59913 is a feed hose only, without a regulator.
