2087 - Propane Tank Adapter POL to QCC1 Type 1 Brass Fitting

Reliable Propane Tank Adaptation

The Adapter For QCC To POL For BBQ Tanks is an essential brass fitting designed to bridge the gap between different generations and styles of propane cylinder valves. Specifically, this unit adapts a standard P.O.L. (Prest-O-Lite) valve—commonly found on older 20lb tanks and standard 100lb commercial cylinders—to a modern QCC1 (Type 1) outlet. This allows users to connect newer appliances, such as barbecue grills, patio heaters, and weed burners equipped with the large plastic hand-tighten nuts, to tanks that would otherwise be incompatible.

Heavy-Duty Construction

Manufactured from solid brass, this adapter is built to withstand the high pressures of liquid propane gas and the rigors of outdoor storage. Brass is the material of choice for gas fittings due to its natural resistance to corrosion and sparking, ensuring a safe and durable connection season after season. The precision machining on both the POL and QCC threads guarantees a tight, leak-free seal when installed correctly, providing peace of mind during operation.

Versatile Application

While standard 20lb BBQ tanks now come with dual-thread valves (accepting both POL and QCC), larger cylinders like 100lb tanks often strictly feature the internal POL thread. This adapter is the perfect solution for homeowners or caterers who wish to run a standard BBQ grill off a large capacity tank for extended runtimes without changing regulators. Simply screw the POL end into the tank using a wrench, and the adapter provides the external QCC threads needed for your appliance.
