Butane Regulator

[Wendelspanswick]

Anyone have a clip on butane regulator they want to get rid of?
I've been given a couple of gas bottles and one is a full butane cylinder, it would be useful to be able to connect it to my Bullfinch type torch but I only have screw on regulators.
Happy to pay.

I have a clip on one of a barbie but it says propane on it

Bear in mind there are at least 3 different sizes.

That's something I didn't know. Do you know how they are sized?

AFAIK It's the diameter of the bit the regulator clips on to, Shell is 21mm, Calor a mm either side, 20mm I think and a much larger one, about an inch. It should be stamped on the bit of the regulator that clips to the bottle.

Hey Wendelspanswick - did you get sorted for this yet?

 

[Wendelspanswick]

No, need to measure my cylinder and then I might go car booting in search of one.

Just cleaning up and found one. Brand new but box is ruined as it's gotten soaked. 20mm clip on type. Any use?

Thank you for the offer but sods law says that when I measured the butane valve (Shell gas) its 21mm!
Cheers anway.
