GasBank ACME M10 LPG filling adapter GB501 - for Germany, Belgium, Ireland and Luxembourg
- GasBank GB501 LPG filling adapter with ACME coupling for filling points with M10 thread, e.g. DISH M10. Needed in: Germany, Belgium, Ireland, Luxembourg. Brass body, seal at the thread.
GasBank GB501 is an LPG filling adapter with a ACME coupling on the station side and an M10 thread on the vehicle side. Screw it into an M10 filling point - for example a GasBank DISH M10 remote filler in a motorhome or caravan - and fill autogas at stations whose nozzles use the ACME coupling. Mainly needed in: Germany, Belgium, Ireland, Luxembourg.
What it is for
- lets you fill LPG from a ACME nozzle into an M10 threaded filling point
- threaded ACME coupling - the station nozzle is screwed onto the adapter and locked with its lever
- fits filling points with an M10 (M10x1.5) thread, e.g. DISH M10 remote fillers
- one of the three M10 adapters needed to travel across Europe: ACME, BAYONET and EUROCONNECTOR
Where you need it
- Germany
- Belgium
- Ireland
- Luxembourg
- Liechtenstein
- Austria and Switzerland - alongside DISH
- outside Europe: USA, Canada, Australia, Chile
The DISH coupling, standard e.g. in Poland, France and Italy, needs no adapter if your filling point is a DISH type. The map shows which couplings you will find at European stations.
How to fill with the adapter
- switch off the engine and follow the station instructions
- remove the filler cap and screw the adapter into the M10 thread so that the seal sits evenly
- connect the station nozzle to the adapter and fill according to the station rules
- after filling, disconnect the nozzle, unscrew the adapter and refit the filler cap - a small amount of gas may escape when unscrewing
- keep the adapter in a pouch so that the thread and seal stay clean
Build
- body turned from copper alloy (brass)
- M10 thread with seal on the filling point side
- ACME coupling on the nozzle side
- compact size - fits a glovebox or an adapter pouch
Safety and regulations

Mainly: Germany, Belgium, Ireland, Luxembourg. The map in the description shows couplings in other European countries.
Do I need all three adapters?
If you travel all over Europe - yes. A set of three M10 adapters (ACME, BAYONET, EUROCONNECTOR) is available in the shop.
