Best Valve cartridge

Valve cartridges are primarily associated with gas cartridges. These disposable containers are filled with liquid gas and are used for camping or outdoor activities. This also includes gas-powered lamps. Valve cartridges have a thread and are therefore also referred to as screw valve cartridges. The positive aspect lies in an integrated safety measure: The valve only opens if the suitable connection is also screwed on and the gas cannot escape uncontrolled. Also advantageous is the possibility of dismantling, unused gas can be used at a later date. This system is very common in Europe. Well-known brands are Colemann, Snow Peak, Markill or Primus. They like to use the valve cartridge for camping needs

To get an idea of what such valve cartridges look like: The Coleman 250 size valve cartridge consists of a propane/butane mixture and has the safety valve mentioned above. This cartridge is compatible with any Coleman gas cooker. Another gas cartridge comes from Campingaz. The model CV470 valve cartridge has a capacity of 450 g and can be easily combined with the Campingaz party grill. These two examples thus belong to the safe variants for a mobile grill or camping gas cooker

At the same time, these valve cartridges meet international requirements. Your camping holiday in Scandinavian countries is thus also saved, because these regulations must be respected at international level. For this reason, most manufacturers use the international standard thread. The decisive detail is the self-closing safety valve. Pointer cartridges, on the other hand, must be used up completely. They cannot be removed and re-closed from the gas cooker. The unused content will then unfortunately be lost

The gas mixture contains a small proportion of propane gas. Use at temperatures below 5 °C is therefore only recommended to a limited extent. Campers who are drawn to the cold should therefore opt for gas cartridges with isobutane, which will then function perfectly. The thread of the valve cartridges is according to European standard 7/16″. For example, Coleman offers 100 (97 g) to 500 (440 g), in a blend of 70% butane gas and 30% propane. The same mixture of 70 : 30 also has markings, albeit in different orders of magnitude. Campingaz also uses the 70/30 mixture of butane and propran. Edelrid Outdoor, on the other hand, is the supplier for a 30% share of isobutane. This small selection is intended to show you how diverse the offers for valve cartridges are. It is important that you inform yourself about the respective safety aspects before your camping holiday abroad and make your choice accordingly. In Germany, you can drive to the campsite with all these brands without hesitation or organise a BBQ in the city park. Party grills, mobile applicable are very popular and can even be used on the balcony. For all grill lovers who do not want to do without the smoky taste of steak.
