The kit contains a standard 22-inch, rubber hose. The regulator features a large, plastic knob that users manually screw counterclockwise onto QCC1 connection style tanks for a factory seal. Affixing the regulator to the tank requires absolutely no tools, while use of articles such as a screwdriver may cause damage. When attached properly, users may notice a gentle whistle or a hum as a result of the full tank, barometric pressure, or humidity. An air vent on the regulator also releases a hissing sound as air circulates. Such sounds are absolutely normal unless accompanied by the scent of gas. Grill owners in rural environments or with pets may opt to purchase a wire hose guard to prevent animals from chewing through the hose. A detailed manual assists users with kit assembly and safety tips. --Jessica Reuling

weber regulator kit,
This review is from: Weber #62565 21" Hose and Regulator with 1/8" NPT Male Thread with QCC1 connection (Lawn & Patio)
Works great - switched from the old quick-release to the new design (which seems to be the only thing they carry nowadays!)

Need to upgrade or refurbish the old Weber? Start here!,
By K "Drew" (Back East, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Weber #62565 21" Hose and Regulator with 1/8" NPT Male Thread with QCC1 connection (Lawn & Patio)
I have owned my Weber since 1993. It was from Sears but is basically a Genesis 1000. The only replacement parts that I have purchased since that time is two igniters and the one that fits is the #7509 as found with this link Weber 7509 Igniter Kit. After years of dealing with the quick gas disconnect for the Weber Genesis 1000, it was time to switch to the more traditional propane cylinder. Why? MY OPD valve in my original tank somehow became stuck after a recent fill.
This adapter is nice and is the same length as the original regulator hose. Simple to remove the old hose and install the new one. I used some soft-set, slow drying compound sealant to lubricate and protects threaded piece and not allow any gas leaks. Worked very well and easily found at Lowes or Home Depot. The easy on/off is great since no wrench is needed and this is as good as the quick release tanks. I would also recommend looking at the replacement burner set. It can be had on Amazon by looking at this link Weber 7506 Stainless-Steel Burner Tube Set but I was able to find the same set via a simple search for only $11.99 (a savings of over $30). Actually, there are lots of old Weber parts out there if you just look. Finding the proper Weber part number is key. My "do it yourself" grill makeover will cost me only $45 total and the grill will probably run for another 15 years with no issues. Good luck! Thanks for reading!

Hose and Regulator Kit Makes Connections Much Easier,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Weber #62565 21" Hose and Regulator with 1/8" NPT Male Thread with QCC1 connection (Lawn & Patio)
This regulator kit eliminates the hassle of transferring the adapter from one tank to another tank. You can also get rid of the black plastic plug which is needed to unscrew the adapter from one tank to another. Quick connects and disconnects are possible by replacing the old hose and regulator with this kit. It is easily installed, and the benefit is immediate.
