Nope, I bought a couple of those thinking they were the right kind but (1) the inside mating surface is flat not 45-degree, and (2) threads are too short to engage due to the flat mating surface
You don't want a 45 degree flare. That's SAE spec. You want 37 degree, which is what JIC and AN flares use. (and judging by the description of the part, it's AN, so, 37 degrees_
That said, yes, a 45 degree flare can work in LP circuits, when used with JIC/AN fittings. So it would probably work just fine- but it is by no means *right*.
I'll find the proper fitting for you when I get a few minutes.
