I am changing to 2 x 7kg butane cylinders for various reasons. The clip on 21mm regulator has a nozzle (fulham?) fitting and therefore I can buy a simple length of suitable butane tube. However, the gas locker bulkhead needs a left hand thread connecter with another nozzle and I cant work out what to buy.
I asked a chum to sort it out for me and he cut the old pipe before he realised that he had bought the wrong fitting. The old fitting looks like this and has the number 0207 stamped on it.
Can anyone suggest what I need to buy please. Thanks.

Now you have me thinking. I thought it was but agree that my photo tends to suggest not. I'll check again tomorrow. Previously this connector at the bulkhead was permanently fixed to a hose leading to a permanently attached camping gas regulator. Now I want to connect the Fulham nozzle of a clip on regulator for a 7kg butane cylinder to a Fulham nozzle at the bulkhead. Ie replace the photographed fitting with a nozzle. How are these fittings measured? Nut width? Thread pitch?
 
So this is the type of regulator you will be fitting?

My fist thoughts were that a compression to Fulham nozzle would fit the end in your photo but it is not clear if there is an olive on the stub of pipe or if it is some other fitting or if the nut has a LH or RH thread

Like this ( minus the nut and olive supplied with it)

Thanks Vic. In fact the fitting was connected permanently to the hose from the regulator to the locker bulkhead fitting. I think I need one of these;

which can be connected to the end of the hose and fitted to the gas locker fitting. The other end will connect to the regulator (similar to the one you have shown)

Looking at the old one again, I am pretty sure that it is LH thread.
