1 in OD x 24 in Flexible Gas Connector - High Capacity Stainless

In this review of the PROCURU 1 in OD x 24 in flexible gas connector, the bottom line is simple: it is built for high-demand tankless water heaters and other natural gas or propane appliances that need a durable, weatherproof connection. The reviewer found the product's standout feature to be the corrugated stainless steel tubing with a protective SafeGuard coating that resists corrosion and household cleaners, which makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installs. Included fittings, PTFE tape and a gas leak detector make installation straightforward for a competent DIYer or a pro.

Key Features

• 1 in outer diameter: Provides higher flow capacity for tankless water heaters and other high-demand appliances where larger connectors are required.
• 24 in length: Two foot tubing gives flexibility for alignment during replacement without stressing joints or fittings.
• SafeGuard coating: Yellow weatherproof coating protects the corrugated stainless steel from corrosion and common household cleaning agents for outdoor or indoor use.
• Complete install kit: Includes two brass fittings (3/4 in MIP tapped 1/2 in FIP and 3/4 in FIP), PTFE sealant tape and a gas leak detector to simplify hookup and verification.
• Certified and tested: CSA certified and 100% leak tested to ensure reliable, code-compliant performance for LP and natural gas.
• Warranty and support: Professional grade product with an industry leading 10-year warranty and US-based support.

Who It's For

This connector is aimed at homeowners or contractors installing or replacing gas lines for tankless water heaters, furnaces or other high-demand gas appliances who need a larger diameter, high-capacity flexible connector. The larger 1 in OD and included brass fittings make it especially useful when upsizing connections or when a straight, robust run is needed without hard piping.

It may not be the best choice for very tight spaces that require shorter or custom-bent lines, or for installations that demand different thread sizes not covered by the included 3/4 in FIP and 3/4 in MIP fittings. Those needing specialty fittings should look elsewhere.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• High flow capacity from the 1 in OD corrugated stainless steel tubing suits tankless heaters.

• Complete kit with brass fittings, PTFE tape and gas leak detector simplifies installation and testing.

Cons

• Some buyers report missing parts occasionally, so check the kit contents on arrival before starting work.
• The fixed 24 in length and provided fittings may not suit very compact or unusual installations requiring different thread sizes.
