LPG GAS BOTTLES 12.5KG

The manufacture of LPG cylinders involves several distinct stages: cutting, stamping, welding and painting.

Throughout the manufacturing process, the cylinders undergo numerous checks. These checks are primarily designed to eliminate any cylinders that may have defects that could compromise their use or user safety. The checks carried out during the manufacture of gas cylinders cover many aspects. These include welds, valve attachment, tightness, tightening torque and resistance to handling.

They comply with colour codes specific to distributors and are designed for a capacity of 6 and 12.5 kg of butane.

Only once these checks have been carried out is the gas cylinder ready for packaging and delivery.
