The 5kg Caravan Gas Cylinder is built for leisure vehicles, where every kilo counts against your payload and the gas locker is never as big as you would like. At 8.5kg full and 3.5kg empty it is light enough to lift into a locker without help, and it takes weight off the nose of a touring caravan where it matters most.

The translucent body is the other reason owners switch: you can see how much gas is left without unstrapping the bottle and hauling it out to weigh it. On a long tour that is the difference between planning a refill and being caught out by one.

What it is for

• Touring caravans, motorhomes, campervans and camper trailers
• Boats and yachts
• Caravan heating systems and water heaters
• Cookers, ovens and gas hobs
• Gas-powered refrigerators
• Awning kitchens and portable BBQs

Why composite instead of steel

• 8.5kg full — a meaningful saving against your payload allowance
• Reduces nose weight on a touring caravan
• Translucent body, so the level is visible without removing the bottle
• Will not rust, and has no paint to chip or mark the inside of a locker
• Ergonomic handles that make a change in a confined locker far easier
• Cracks and vents rather than exploding in a fire; RFID-tagged and certified to EN14427

Valve and regulator

This cylinder is fitted with a screw-in 37mbar valve and needs a matching screw-in 37mbar regulator. Getting this right matters — a screw-in fitting and a clip-on fitting are not interchangeable. If you are unsure which your caravan or motorhome uses, send us the make and model and we will confirm it before you order.

Why buy through Gas2Go

Every cylinder in the range is composite rather than steel, so you always know how much gas is left, and changing a bottle stops being a two-person job.
