Twelve butane fuel canisters for portable camping stoves.

Gas One states twelve butane fuel canisters, new and sealed; cartridges that automatically reseal when removed from the stove; a notched collar for easier alignment to the stove; and use with butane backpack camping stoves. The description gives model Gas-1, a height of 8 inches, a diameter at the bottom of the can of 2.5 inches, and 8 oz (227 g) a canister.

No mix. No gross weight. No EN 417.

A notched collar, not a thread

The sentence that decides everything.

This shelf’s introduction names three incompatible systems: the EN 417 threaded canister with its 7/16 inch UNEF screw valve, the bayonet canister with a different fitting entirely, and the pierceable canister with no valve at all.

This is the second kind. A notched collar indexes the cartridge into a slot; it does not screw into anything. It is what portable table-top butane stoves take.

This shelf’s buying tip: a threaded canister and a bayonet stove is a stove you cannot light. The reverse holds just as hard.

Pure butane

And what that costs below freezing.

Butane boils at about minus half a degree Celsius, so near freezing it stops making enough vapor to feed a burner. Propane boils at about minus forty-two, and it is what keeps a blended can working in winter.

This shelf’s introduction makes this the whole point of the mix: butane-heavy mixes lose pressure as the temperature drops.

This is the only unblended fuel on the shelf. For a table-top stove in summer that is fine; on a frosty morning it is the wrong can.

It reseals

The only listing here that says so.

“Cartridges Automatically Reseal when Removed from Stove.”

Resealability is one of the seven figures this shelf compares, and the introduction above notes it as a property of the threaded canister. Five listings here publish a plastic cap for storage and nothing about the valve; this one publishes the valve behavior.

Two hundred and twenty-seven grams of gas

Joint largest net weight among the American canisters here, and the most efficient of them to carry.

The one listing on this shelf that publishes a gross weight gives 198 grams for 100 grams of gas — about half the load is steel on a small can. A larger can carries proportionally less.

The catch is the shape: eight inches tall and 2.5 across does not nest inside a pot, which a squat 100-gram canister does.

Gas One’s own instructions on the canister carry the handling. Nothing here replaces them, and nothing on this page describes any product as safe.

What people ask before buying

Will it fit a backpacking stove?

No, and that is the most important sentence on this page. This shelf's introduction sets out three incompatible systems: the EN 417 threaded canister with a 7/16 inch UNEF screw valve, the bayonet canister with a different fitting entirely, and the pierceable canister with no valve at all. This is the second kind — a notched collar that aligns the cartridge into a slot rather than screwing into a thread, which is what portable table-top butane stoves take. This shelf's buying tip is blunt about the consequence: a threaded canister and a bayonet stove is a stove you cannot light, and the reverse is just as true.

Why does pure butane matter?

Because of the cold. Butane boils at about minus half a degree Celsius, so near freezing it stops producing enough vapor pressure to feed a burner; propane boils at about minus forty-two and is what keeps a blended canister working in winter. This shelf's introduction makes this the whole point of the gas mix — butane-heavy mixes lose pressure as the temperature drops — and this is the only unblended fuel on the shelf. For a table-top stove used indoors or in summer that is fine. For a frosty morning it is the wrong can.

Is 227 grams better value to carry?

Per gram of gas, yes. The one listing on this shelf that publishes a gross weight gives 198 grams of can and gas for 100 grams of fuel — so the steel is about half the load on a small canister. A larger can carries proportionally less steel for the same gas, which is why this 8 oz size is the efficient one. The catch here is shape rather than weight: eight inches tall and 2.5 across does not nest inside a pot the way a squat 100-gram canister does, and it is a different stove system anyway.
