Both of my local do it yourself warehouses (Home-Depot & Lowes), do not carry black pipe. However, they do stock galvanized pipe and all the connectors and fitttings. I want to run 1/2 inch gas pipe from the gas beam in my Brutus frame to the Honeywell dual standing pilot valves, and then run pipe (probably flexable) from the valves to my Banjo BG-14 burners.
Is galvanized pipe suitable to use for low pressure liquid propane gas from a 20 lb. tank? The sales person had to check and advised it was fine. Has anyone used galvanized pipe or is black pipe better for this application. If black pipe is the way to go I could order it online, I just would rather drive to the store and pick up the pipe and fittings as I put my system together. Any information, pros and cons between the two types is much appreciated.

I joke partially, but if you ever decide to hook it up to natural gas, I wonder if having some galvanized might create an issue for the plumber hooking it up.... of course, don't ask, don't tell.
