Product description

About this product

Threaded camping canisters are excellent and not always easy to find outside a city. Flat cassette canisters are in every supermarket in Tanzania. This copper adapter connects the two, so a screw-in stove can run on supermarket gas.

It is a small thing that changes what is possible on a long trip: you stop planning around where you can buy the right canister.

Questions

Good to know

Will it fit my stove?

It converts to the standard screw-in thread. Bring the stove and we will check it on the counter before you buy.

Is transferring gas safe?

It is a routine operation done carefully, and a dangerous one done carelessly. Work outdoors, away from any flame, cigarette or spark, with nobody smoking nearby. Never overfill. Never heat a canister to speed the transfer. If you are not comfortable doing this, do not.

Why does the canister get cold?

Because gas expanding absorbs heat. That frosting is normal and is also the signal to stop and let things equalise rather than to warm anything up.

Can I refill a canister that was not made to be refilled?

Single-use canisters are not designed for it and the valve is not built for repeated cycles. Many people do it anyway; understand that you are outside what the manufacturer intended and inspect for leaks before every use.

How do I check for a leak?

Soapy water on the joint. Bubbles mean gas. Never use a flame to check, ever.

How should I store gas?

Upright, cool, ventilated, out of sun, never in a closed car in Dar heat.

Can I take these on a plane?

The adapters yes, the gas no. Gas canisters are forbidden in cabin and hold baggage on every airline.
